I don't know how these people can be charasmatic enough that they can welch people out of their money, their wife's vagina, or even their testicles. That's right, The Leader wants to borrow your balls to hitch a ride on the Hale-Bopp comet with the Silver Surfer. "Chop-chop!" To be fair, they got some very nice Nikes out of the deal. The truth is, the leaders are NOT charasmatic, they just are compared to the monumentally stupid people that they pray on. When you say "He was very convincing that he wAS actually Jesus Christ!", well, you're a ding-dong. Look at the Mormons: They believe all black people are accolytes for Lucifer (who is the borther of Jesus), wearing magical Fruit-Of-The-Looms will make you bulletproof and that Native Indians are a lost tribe of Isreal. Now, if you were to say that to my face, I would have burly men pin you down and plunge a syringe into you while saying "Sh-Sh-Shhhhhhh...just rest now, it's all okay friend. You'll get the help you need" because you obviously found a stash of your dad's tuinals and mixed them with Everclear. However, Most of Utah and scores here and there buy into that shit. It has been scientifically proven to be bullshit (along with speaking in tongues) and people still buy into it, because as long as you have fingers to jingle your keys, a retard will here the rattle and clap their hands. MY religion/cult will centre around NOT wasting a Sunday. Like Shinto: worship whatever you want because EVERYTHING is a god. That actually makes the Remote Control a god (finally). I'll worship my beanbag chair I lie in when I'm high.
Ugh, happy hour that lasted way longer than it should have. Very drunk right now. Edit: Very drunk is an overstatement. Sorta drunk. Edit 2: Ok maybe a little drunker than that... G+ hangout anyone?
Yeah I recently had to make the decision not to circ my newborn son even though I am. We're not Jewish or Muslim, and modern research shows no compelling reason to get it done. Good enough for me. It's fucking barbaric and ass backwards if you think about it objectively.
