Is losing one's mind a form of salvation in the Jossverse, or at least a redeeming feature?

I get the impression it's that a person who's lost their capacity for rational thought has also lost their capacity to think up elaborate rationalisations and self-deceptions.Their madness might deceive them, but they no longer deceive themselves.

As for Joss being a secret Catholic: I doubt it, because the doctrine of Purgatory requires a Heaven too. I don't think Joss believes in happy ever afters...
