I think the tendency for humans to have some sort of sense of the supernatural or spirituality is a result of the physiology of the brain and our ability to quickly make patterns. I think the sense of spirituality is a misfiring of that ability. We're seeing patterns where there are, in fact, none.
I wouldn't say it was insanity, but I do think it might be classified as a neurological disorder.
