I agree. These are precisely the same type of people who would support the burning of a woman at the stake who had been accused of witchcraft, if their religious leaders were actively doing that today. They blindly follow their religious leaders and will support absolute nonsense.
In fact, it was precisely that kind of mentality that was used to incite a mob into supporting the crucifixion of Jesus historically (assuming that it actually did happen the way these fables suggest).
Chipan, and so many others like him, are just repeating the same stupidity that religious fundamentalists have brainwashed them to believe. He hasn't stated anything new or original at all. Just the same old unsupportable superstitious rumors.
Rumors that obviously require that modern scientific knowledge necessarily must be wrong in order for their rumors to be true.
So these people are clearly rejecting known truths in favor of supporting ignorant fables. And they won't even permit "sane" interpretations of those ignorant fables.
Try to make Jesus look like a potential nice guy, and they are quick to renounce your interpretations.
They won't support a "nice Jesus". A "nice Jesus" is considered to be Christian blaspheme! Only a hateful unforgiving Jesus will do.
How ironic is that?
Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!
