Maybe someone should send John Carmack the URL to this video. Could
result in the scariest game in history. Shub's got nothing on the
Prayer Warriors as far as scary goes.

My mother was like that woman. She wasn't as fat, and not
quite as crazy, but she was a religious loon. She told me that I
got my music from Satan. I think she would have been almost
as bad as that woman, but my father was too overbearing to let
her get away with it. That poor husband in that video doesn't stand a
chance against that behemoth he's stuck with. And those poor kids!
My mother wrote a stack of checks every month, as soon as she got her
social security check, to Jim & Tammy Bakker, Falwell, Oral Roberts,
Pat Robertson, etc etc. She would sit in her rocking chair half of
every day and listen to tapes of TV evangelists, giving us
disapproving scowls as we passed by.

Just to get that poison out of my system. I was blessed with parents
who were rational and tolerant freethinkers. When my Mother got older
she started going to church but she still uses reason first and not
dogma.
People like that woman in the video are mortally scared of reality and
try
desperately to cast the world in very simplistic terms to impose rules
of
dogma on it. Inother words - if reality contradicts dogma it is
reality that
is wrong. That is why religious zealots make such horrible leaders.

I have an aunt just like this, nobody in the family knows why it
happened to her, but at some point she went over-the-top. She moved to
an area of New Orleans where apparently there were many more
like-minded folks living in a neighborhood there. She basically
dis-owned the family. I'm a member of the Knights Of Columbus at my
church, if I mentioned to her that we usually had a few beers and
played a little poker (with the priest) in the church basement while
planning volunteer activities she would probably hunt me down.

I guess it's easier for folks to freak out about phantasmagorical "Dark
Siders" than face the reality of real human suffering and things that really
matter, as well as our own guilt and responsibility in it. That video was
very disturbing; it says a lot about the primitive delusion of so many.
Hmmm . . . We've got folks starving, suffering and murdering each other all
over the world, and this "righteous" woman is poisoning her kids' minds with
delusional hate and fear just to get some attention, and then spending
$20,000 for gastric bypass surgery.
We have now seen the Dark Side, and it is us.

Yeah, but the kid has no concept yet of what is actually going on with
her mom.She is just a child. She is going to go to bed terrified of
"demons" infesting her house and probably herself. At least the husband
is an adult and as such has some objective idea of what is
happening...But I hear you on the husband, the look of abject misery on
his face is truly saddening...

Well, that's the crux of what's so hopeless about how religious
freedom is handled in the West, isn't it? It's way past due time that
civilized society stopped accepting the backwards and oppressing ways
of religious freaks like this god warrior. It's just terrible what we
let people get away with just because they define their abuse of
others as religion.

I have witnessed that kind of behavior personally.
My mother was like that, but mom was about half
that fat and crazy. Well, maybe 2/3, now that I think
about it.
My mother would go on tirades about how everything would
been fine, if only we all went to church together. She told me
that my friends were "Satan incarnate", and that I would surely
burn in hell for playing the devil's music. I sure as hell didn't
stage at that.
Thank god, my father, although a real asshole himself, was
non-religious, and he was too damn mean and scary to let mom act like
that woman.

America is the spawn of Puritan doomsday cultists, along with
common criminals.

My father didn't think it was the work of Satan, but the communists.
When I was a senior in college in California, and not working
professionally at all, I got a truly bizarre letter from him saying
among other things that the Soviet Union were communists because I
played guitar.
I'm not making that up or paraphrasing it. It was because of me, he
wrote.
That one kind of made me think the family crest might possibly be best
represented by a couple of loons surrounded by banana clusters on a
field of crackers. I granted myself permission to regard him as
dysfunctional from then on and prepared myself accordingly.
The irony is this man was an attorney and at the time he wrote it and
an officer in a major insurance company. But something bad happened to
him when he was about fourteen, and a large part of his mind never
effectively grew past that point. From the time I was a teenager until
he was dead I kept a couple of time zones between us, since he was
delusional and ws known to occasionally act out.

BOXBOROUGH -- Tearing a sealed envelope to pieces, the woman begins to
scream, ''They're tampering with the dark side. This is tainted. I am
a God warrior, and I don't want anyone tainted doing anything with my
family!"
Sign up for: Globe Headlines e-mail | Breaking News Alerts The scene,
a preview of the season premiere of the Fox Broadcasting Co. reality
show ''Trading Spouses," features Marguerite Perrin of Ponchatoula,
La., and has been relentlessly promoted during Fox programs and on its
website. What isn't well known is that the object of Perrin's wrath is
the Flisher family of Boxborough.
Jeanne D'Amico Flisher, her husband, Chris Flisher, and their four
children will appear in the two-part episode of the show, which begins
Wednesday. Though Perrin's visit to Boxborough had its rough spots,
the Flishers said they were surprised by the force of her tantrum.
''I think it was the stress of the experience," Chris said last week
at the family's home.
''You would never think she would act like that from the way she acted
at our home," said Miles, 13.
The rules of the show are simple: Two spouses (usually wives) spend
six days with the other's family, each living as her counterpart
lives. Each woman receives $50,000 at the end of the process, along
with instructions from the other woman on how to spend it.
D'Amico Flisher's instructions to Perrin, however, were in the torn
envelope and never saw the light of day.
The Flishers' involvement in the show began last February, when Chris
received an e-mail from an online group stating that Fox was
auditioning families involved in astrology for the show. Jeanne, a
hypnotherapist, and Chris, an astrologer, applied immediately. After
almost five months of screening and auditioning, the Flishers received
a call that a crew would be arriving in a week.
A trailer was parked in the front yard, cameras were placed all over
the house, and art and photos that had not been approved by the
network were covered or removed. Each family member was handed a
microphone and instructed to wear it at all times. As many as 40 Fox
crew members were in the house and yard at once.
At first, it was difficult to adjust. Jeanne said that on the morning
of the first day, Fox cameramen popped the lock on her bedroom door
and began filming the couple as they were still ''naked in bed."
After a day at home, Jeanne was flown to Louisiana, where she moved in
with Perrin's husband, daughter, and granddaughter and helped run
Perrin's dance studio.
Meanwhile, Chris Flisher and the children -- Matthew, Elliot, and Emma
White, and Miles Flisher -- welcomed Perrin, who joined Chris on the
local radio show he hosted with Jeanne at the time, ''Love Talk USA."
The Flishers' spirituality is apparent: Tibetan prayer flags hang over
their front door, and a Wiccan star hangs on their garage. During
Perrin's visit, Chris hosted a solstice celebration that included a
bonfire and drum playing. ''Earthy crunchy stuff," he said.
It was at that point, he said, that Perrin began to react negatively.
The next day, when she met a ''Christian astrologer" on the radio
show, she stormed out in the middle of the show.
''Anytime someone said astrology or gargoyle, she would flip out,"
said Emma, 13.
''She bristled just at the word astrology," Chris said. On the way
home from the show, she said, 'From now on, we're doing things my
way.' "
The next day, instead of going to an acupuncturist, as she and Chris
had planned, Perrin took the Flisher family to a Roman Catholic church
in the area.
Jeanne, meanwhile, was having an easier time. She went to church with
the family, performed hypnotherapy on Perrin's daughter to help her
with weight loss, and met Perrin's friends.
The producers made Jeanne leave Louisiana early to exchange letters
with Perrin in Boxborough.
Jeanne said their meeting was cordial and friendly, and Marguerite
seemed pleased when she heard about her daughter's hypnotherapy. It
offered no hint of the flare-up that occurred when Marguerite returned
to Louisiana.
Both Jeanne and Chris said the producers didn't put pressure on them
to act a certain way or do certain things, but Chris was concerned
about how the show will portray them once it is edited.
''I'm completely confident in what I said and did, but with editing, I
could be on the grassy knoll shooting JFK," he said.
Jeanne did not feel anxiety, though she recalled that she did not have
a chance to say a proper goodbye to her hosts in Louisiana, and began
to cry at the memory.
''It is reality," she said. ''It was very hard to leave."
