Delusionalist
Someone who uses ancient belief systems to explain the world around them. These belief systems are not grounded in reality and only serve to help the person cope with things they cannot understand. The delusionalist thinks the burden is on the evidence to reconcile itself with his delusions.
Is he a schizophrenic? No, he's a delusionalist.
