He probably doesn't relate well to your particular style, Amos. Or can't be bothered to. I wouldn't worry about it.

I know psychiatrists with very strong spiritual...(or what another might call "religious") beliefs. Or they therefore to be considered insane?

Ha! Amusing, isn't it?

I've met insane religious people and sane religious people. I've met insane atheists and agnostics and sane ones. I've met insane football fans and sane ones.

The insane are those whose mindset leads them into irrational and unproductive and destructive dysfunctional behaviour...period.

The fact is, the sane and insane can be found among every large general category of people, regardless of whether or not they are religious.

Therefore, the title of this thread is patently ridiculous, in my opinion...indicating nothing more than an extreme level of personal prejudice, founded upon ignorance.
