No. There are tons of mentally ill people that go to church regularly and obsess on religious matters... i.e. demon possession, hearing the voice of God. Recently a woman, regular and active church member, cut the arms and legs off her child because she thought she needed to make God a sacrifice. She went to a church and seemed okay to a lot of people, but she had a lot of mental problems. I don't think it was her church's fault either, her mental condition would've caused her to be violent even without religion.
