Just because you're paranoid, don't mean that they're not after you

Right wing religious Jesus Freaks are paranoid enough as it is. After 9/11 you could have told them that Osama bin Laden lived in their toilet, and was waiting to bite their asses when they were doing their business, and they would have tossed a grenade into their thrones, and spent the next 6 years shitting in a hole in the ground.

I actually read this link, and it's pretty hysterical. Real news articles have a universal format. Every journalist learns that the first thing they teach you is to tell the most important part of the story first. Here, the most important part of the story is the supposed psychiatric evaluation of this guy. But that doesn't show up until near the end of the article. Rather the author spends the first 3 paragraphs trying to shore up his credibility.

If you spend that much time trying to assure your audience that you have credibility, then that tells me that your credibility is lacking.

For all we know this story could just be made up out of whole cloth. Or, perhaps this guy is a paranoid schizo who's psychiatric evaluation was previously court ordered for committing a crime. Or, the whole damn thing could have been a hoax played on this rinky dink radio program.

What I do know is that millions of Americans both go to church and are gun owners, many in my own family, and I have never heard of a single one of them being forced to have a mental evaluation for the shits and giggles of it. I work in a field where I deal with people who are often have to get a mental evaluation, and I have never heard of any such thing.

If this was really happening in this country, then people who are untrained as educators, and who have delusional religious beliefs wouldn't be allowed to home school their children. Rather, we give such people plenty of encouragement to do so. We allow churches to operate tax free so long as they stay out of politics, and they enter the political realm regardless without penalty.

I wished we lived in a world where religious people were forced to get a mental evaluation. You don't have to look very far into history to show that delusional religious people can be quite violent and destructive. Whether it's flying planes into buildings, throwing acid into women's faces, or blowing up women's health clinics or setting off pipe bombs at the Olympics, religious people have delusional beliefs that propel them to behave in a destructive manner.

I knew a paranoid schizophrenic who once told me that the squirrels in her back yard where spying on her for Uncle Sam. She knew this was true because she could see that they had on "listening devices". I don't see how this is very much different from thinking that God is talking directly to your head.
