 Assessing arguments in (1) to (3) requires assessing empirical and conceptual claims. Let’s consider (1), the ‘bad integration’ objection to the belief status of delusions. In order to see whether the conclusion is convincing, an empirical claim about delusions needs to be examined first: Do delusions really fail to integrate with our beliefs? Then, a conceptual claim needs assessing, the claim that not being integrated with our beliefs prevents delusions from being beliefs themselves. In many cases, the alleged ‘fault’ of delusions is exaggerated (e.g., delusions sometimes integrate well with our beliefs), but it would be plausible to claim that delusions exhibit that feature (bad integration) to a higher degree than nondelusional beliefs.
