Become religious... just kidding!
Why are you kidding? It almost worked for me. I don't regularly hear voices, but the few brief moments I've heard anything said to me were during the most intensely religious part of my life.
It was just 9 words spoken and nothing close to an illness, but the technically excessive spirituality did lead to an auditory hallucination.
It's funny how jokes can turn out to be true.
Also, have you ever heard of Stendhal syndrome or Jerusalem syndrome?
I know that religion works for a spiritual need. I was just joking based on the fact that people do some of the strangest things, because some " God " told them it was a good idea.
As for your question about Jerusalem Syndrome, yes I've heard of it. The life group that I attend every Sunday. They go to Jerusalem every year, and have an encounter with someone who has it. When they come back, the following Sunday they tell others about their experience.
