How probable? I have no idea. However, having worked in psychiatry for many, many years, I can say that metal illness and religious obsession are closely intertwined.

Right, because your other option here was the only other one and bound to happen if this imbecile didn't come up with idea.

The problem is that there is not a social penalty paid for believing in nonsense when it comes to religion. That's off-limits. Why, that would be bigotry.

Huh?

They are both horrendous and inhumane acts which is why there are animal right activists and agencies that assist people in having their pets neutered/spayed to avoid unwanted and deserted pets, but don't you see the obvious nuances of why this is totally off the charts nuts in its own right?

Just because someone is Christian doesn't mean we would do this. This guy is evil.
