TL;DW An interesting talk about a Christian missionary who tried to convert an Amazonian tribe to Christianity but instead ended up becoming an atheist, essentially because the cultural and linguistic differences of the tribe were such that they required evidence for any new information given to them, meaning they didn't buy into the concept of Christianity. This made him to rethink his former beliefs and eventually he became an atheist and an anthropologist.

Good quote from the video:
HE SHOULD HE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF THAT JUST SHOWS YOU HOW INTELLIGENT THE DEVIL IS AND HOW WEAK AND LOW THIS MANS SPIRITUALITY AND FAITH IS.

Posting in all caps is a certain sign of demonic possession.

You should see a very special type of priest - one who’s licenced to shoot demon possessed people.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
