OK, I don't want to call Dan Aykroyd stupid, I mean he is an adorable guy, but, boy, when he starts talking about his beliefs it really becomes mental.
Like I was skimming through some book of essays where there is one by Dan Aykroyd. Now, Dan is a spiritualist, but he did grow up catholic so you can see how these beliefs all mixed up "nicely" in his head, especially when he describes what he thought was happening during John Belushi's funeral (last two sentences)

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
