I just don't know who to be angriest at

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-13489641[^] Some people got rid of everything, even their kid's university fund. Part of me hopes they sue Hardold Campest & his snakeoil religion emporium out of existance, part of me is angry at them for being so gullible. The only upside is that it is likely that only the stupidest did this, hopefully this will improve the genepool as they can no longer compete with the less gullible.

A Dead ringer for Kate Winslett[^]I'm not angry at all: how can I be when I haven't stopped laughing at the gross stupidity of ignorant people? I laughed even harder when they said it was a test of their faith. Morons.

I don't think we should mock them. After all, we wouldn't mock somebody with ADHD - well I wouldn't.

I don't think you can equate the gullible and stupid ignoring 21st Century knowledge, reason, science and common sense to be taken in by this nutjob with someone having ADHD.

I don't want to mock them, I'm genuinely angry at what has happened. The cult-leader created a "Scientific" "proof" based on some way-out numerology (that didn't end with him drilling holes into his head when he realised the meaning of the value of pi, sadly) and he took in a large number of people. This nutter has effected a great many lives with little comeback. To compound the problem, it has increased the Christian bashing, which there is already way too much of in the first place IMO.

A Dead ringer for Kate Winslett[^]They deserve everything they got for being so stupid as to believe anything said at all in regards to religion. If they are so dim as to think that religion is for real then let's hope the ensuing poverty makes them realise how it is that the stupid and gullible are captured by these cults (All Religions are Cults).

So you just compared religion with an incurable disorder - am I the only one seeing the irony of this?

I do. IMHO, there is a big difference between and idiot and someone with ADHD. You really need to have your head examined if you believe that an almighty force is going to suck you up into the heavens and leave the "bad" people here on earth. my 2 cents on the subject.

That might have been seen as theft - taking goods or services with no intention of paying - and kept them out of heaven after all... :laugh:

If that sucker wanted to get rid of his life savings, surely giving it to the poor would have been more Christian than giving it to a printer?

As I understood it, those who dedicate themselves to spreading the word would be 'taken up', the rest left for apocalyptic gruel. With that in mind (and believing there will shortly be no need for money), giving to the poor actually does not make sense. The thing is, these types of people can be convince to "drink the Kool-Aid" and also, to distribute it to others. I find it comforting not living anywhere near a church.
