Deeply Religious People are Weird

That is all
I think that applies to anyone who dives too deep into anything that is religious, spiritual, or weird faux philosophical. My wife knows some dummies who got really into The Secret. She also is friends with some girls who believe in the power of crystals and "healing energy". Hippie nonsense that Jas just grips my leg and gives me the "don't do it" look when they try to ramble on. They have picked up on my feelings about it and generally don't go too deep into the subject when I am around.

People who spend an inordinate amount of time complaining about people with spiritual ideas that aren't the same as theirs are weird too.

I will ask that Mother Nature, Lord of the Crystals, calms Woodrow and eases him of his troubles.

American King James Version
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but to us which are saved it is the power of God.1 Corinthians 2:14King James Version (KJV)
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

I'm not sure what you're interpretation of that passage is, but I imagine it's one that absolves Christianity of something a crazy follower would do.

There's little I dislike more than a religious zealot regardless of what ancient dogma they subscribe to. Christians irk me the most because I know a lot of fake pious douchebags who do scummy sh:t and believe praying to jebus is gonna make that ok.
Muslims are clearly the most dangerous, but they're all sh:t
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

A crazy follower who perhaps would lay his life down for others? That would be the flip side.
Those passages of scripture only point out that the world believes the message of the cross to be foolishness until ones eyes are opened to the truth. I think human history has born that out up until the present day.

Non believing atheists are stranger. How you can't believe in god with all that is before your eyes is beyond me.

What history? That people don't believe something until they do? Obviously. You either do or you don't.
There's going to be an interpretation of a passage in the Bible (or any other religious text) for everything you need an explanation for. They've been defending it for hundreds of years

I don't want to put words in your mouth but If I remember right Woody you thought Ben Carson was not fit for public office because he believes in prayer and God speaking to him. That would disqualify many believers from public service in your view.

Correct.
The more religious someone is, the less I want them in public office.
I don't remember exactly what Carson believed, but I remember it was someone ridiculous Sheet.

It was something I didn't believe but I thought it was an interesting theory on the pyramids being built to store grain in Joseph's time in Egypt. In the bible Joseph was warned (God spoke to him) of a 7 year famine to come and he stored up grain ahead of the famine.

Perfect example of why the "separation of church and state" doctrine should be further encoded into a possible constitutional amendment:
Judge Interjects, Tells Jury That God Wants A Not Guilty Verdict
At least he had the decency to recuse himself after the jury denied his stupid request

while on the subject of "judges" there's a whole group of the activists all over the left coast
wouldn't it be nice if they did the same courtesy?
