This video seriously comes close to making me vomit all over my computer screen and then punching my fist through it. My god, even Sean Hannity hates these people.
In reality, this is a very small extremist group that even the "Religious Right" consider a black sheep. That said, it is also an extreme example of how religion creates ultimate sensation and steals the airwaves from actual issues. Let's take the air out of the tires of these groups - and their more "mature" big brothers and sisters - by tuning out on religion as something that needs to be discussed in the public forum. What end does it serve? Does anyone actually feel more satisfied after watching a piece like this? Is anyone closer to being educated on true public policy matters? or are we just being distracted in this three-card monte game that forces our eyes to wander away from the truly substantial issues? It's a shakedown folks and at the end of the day our minds will end up just as empty as our wallets from some shyster on 5th Ave asking us to follow the Queen.

I agree. Although this is a tiny tiny group of extremists, it illustrates how religion can be distorted and interpreted in any number of ways to suit a predetermined belief.
