I think in antiquity we had distinct roles for these different people we're talking about. So there might be an oracle (a schizo who has siezures and visions on drugs) or a witch doctor or whatever. And then around that person there will be a priest class who support the schizo and use their visions to answer questions that the followers in the cult might have.
These days our society doesn't really have a priest class, it has TV televangelists who want money money money because money is god. And the oracles are homeless drug addicts who nobody listens to anymore.
