So his point is, that being schizotypal isn't completely useless because we can be shamans...

But magical thinking is still irrational and made up. It's not true. Plus, he seems to ignore that this is an illness which also brings pain and suffering. Does he somehow think that this pain stems from the way society treats us, because it doesn't accept us as shamans?

I'm having trouble swallowing this, maybe because I don't have magical thinking at all.
