Lately there was some hullabaloo about the likeness between Obama and the actor playing Satan in the item of apologetics recently aired by the History Channel.

Some obscurantist nuts however take the comparison to new heights. Watching the first four minutes of this crap will make things abundantly clear.

Well APA, see it this way. She may be Satan, but she can't blame you for not taking your meds......

Some people (Satan for instance) just don't tolerate that people make honest mistakes.... I make them at least once a week. Says more about them then about..... us for example!

I tried, but I couldn't make it four minutes.  Two and a half minutes of liberal translations of words with similar meanings and sounds to demonize our president was all I could take.  It's like that Bible code bullshit where you can find all this "secret wisdom".  Secret wisdom my ass!  I did a quick search on the first web site I found that let me do a search for free and "Jesus was gay" got 848 hits.
This sentence is a lie...

Try googling 'jesus fucked sheep'... It's a secret code. :lol:

Exactly. This is reminiscent of Bible code stuff. In that sense it has more to do with people being batshit crazy than with people being religious.....

I think the difference is merely one of extent, not kind.

People take their meds, feel better, and think they don't need them anymore. Next thing you know... YouTube insanity

This link should help you undo the stupid of that video.  It's by a religious person who just happens to be a Biblical scholar and who also just happens to have watched this particular video.  It is intelligent and informative.  And as an added bonus he rips this moron a new one.

This guy talks so repetitively. I can't imagine anyone watching the full video.

Because some people think they can do without.

This is especially so for psych meds, to my knowledge. Besides psych meds have always been hard to pin down on their effectiveness because of how much we don't know about how the brain works.

One biochemist at a TED talk described current psych meds as treating the brain as a bag of chemical soup.

The only way to heaven is through emulating the actions of Jesus.
