Religious Persecution Delusions - Day 25 of "100 Symptoms"

"Who are you? I said: Why, I'm actually Jesus."
As a symptom category, delusions of persecution as related to religious themes are fairly common, and highly noticeable. 

When someone is convinced they are basically the most significant being in existence since the lives of Jesus and Muhammad, that's a stretch of belief for most people.

It is easy for others to disprove, but it is apparently difficult for the individual with the belief they are the prophet reborn. Why is it difficult for the individual to see what others see? Frankly, it's because they are clearly not seeing the same thing. The perceptions, including outright hallucinations, tell another story to the individual. 

It's like your strangest dreams or nightmare come alive in the day and sleepless nights. That said, it can be hard to shake the feeling what you genuinely "saw" seems genuinely "real" even as inconceivable as that idea seems to others.
