So basically, the thing that Jesus advised about doing unto others is now a pathology? at least in its extreme form.

St Frank became a saint. But now he'd be a mental patient.

Folks like this are interesting because study of such a person's brain can be used to map function. Like the man who thought his wife was a hat. Abnormality makes it possible to recognise normality.
