One of my neuroscience teachers made us read studies showing that very religious people have near-schizophrenic dopamine levels. He also pointed out that schizophrenics have delusions of grandeur/feelings of persecution that are reminiscent of certain religious beliefs.
Then again, he also made us read "The God Delusion", so he may just cherry-picked the studies because he had an ideological axe to grind.
