WHY WHY WHY has the media given this fool any more than a moment's attention?

Enough already. Who. The. Fuck. Cares.

2. I'm guessing it's a test of faith

God works in mysterious ways to assure that non-believers aren't admitted into the kingdom and often presents a series of false alarms to weed out those who who's faith would waver in the face of doubt... Send more money. Lots of money. Praise the Lord. Amen.

You can't help people who are told that facing reality will deny them salvation.

5. Just because one is secular in their beliefs does not mean religion doesn't fascinate them.

It is like watching Lemmings march over the cliff or people that watch satellite TV say man Never went into space..Such distancing from plain and simple LOGIC is simply fascinating. Makes one really scratch their head.

10. Yeah. Saying this fraud case is fascinating because you find religion fascinating is like saying

you're into snack vending machines because you're fascinated in culinary arts.
