Cloud Cuckooland's Prophet
« on: December 07, 2014, 11:12:53 pm »
As some of you probably saw from CSTDT, there is a new cult leader in town. One who previously said he planned to assassinate the President. After that, however, things get crazier.

The wacky beliefs?

The Earth is held within a glass structure, Alex Jones is the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler (I KNEW there was something Hitler-ish about Alex Jones!), something about chemtrails being a sign of the glass ceiling of the earth, one of his lady friends made an NSFW animation to explain all this nuttery, and the universe exists within the Earth, and there are tunnels in the ocean going to and from Israel.

Steven is a consummate solipsist, who believes all of the Earth's inhabitants are soulless automatons who exist to keep him company. He says everyone needs to move to Florida, and that he'll make his new Jerusalem in Uluru.

Most odd about this? Steven doesn't want your money, he understands exactly how crazy all of this sounds, and why people would not believe he's the Messiah. He's a definite oddball.

Also he has apparently sworn off shirts.

I guess this is what happens when you gut your mental healthcare system.

That's not very wacky. The Bible supports this position, so it's not surprising some people still hold onto it.
Consumption is not a politically combative act — refraining from consumption even less so.

He's been there for a while now.

He also used to claim that the sun would stop during the 2012 solar eclipse, slowly burning the earth except for the shadowed part, and ushering in the apocalypse. Guess that hasn't happened.

If all he has to offer is this common knowledge he won't attract much notice.
I am an old man, and I've seen many problems, most of which never happened.

I thought the Earth was a flat disk rotating on the back of four elephants standing on the back of a giant space turtle by the name of A'Tuin....

+1 for you, sir!
There is light and darkness in the world, to be sure.  However, there's no harm to be had in walking in the shade or shadows.

Nah, it's turtles all the way down.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:

Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!
