By all means, please take Christianity seriously

By all means, please take Christianity seriously
Video of exorcism in Moldova:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzykVn2PCo8

Nice article addressing the religious fervor in Moldova:
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_p...orest.html

Quote:Past the wooden crucifixes that dot the crumbling townships, inside the monastery, around 200 people have gathered to expel their demons. I watch a dozen of the faithful dunk themselves in holy water and kiss the base of a steel cross, preparing to purge themselves of demons—dyavoli, as they are called here.

I can hear the excuses now: "They're not real Christians" or "They're doing it wrong".

And yet, we're constantly implored to have respect for Christianity and take their mindless beliefs seriously.

I'm assuming this is Eastern Orthodox Christianity?

RE: By all means, please take Christianity seriously
I can't imagine anything I do in life leading to me being ridden by a priest. I mean, imagine being in that moment when your choice is to walk away or get down on all fours. At what point do you go "Yeah this is fucking silly. I'm not doing that. Don't ride people, Priest."
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

This is some kinky shit
“The larger the group, the more toxic, the more of your beauty as an individual you have to surrender for the sake of group thought. And when you suspend your individual beauty you also give up a lot of your humanity. You will do things in the name of a group that you would never do on your own. Injuring, hurting, killing, drinking are all part of it, because you've lost your identity, because you now owe your allegiance to this thing that's bigger than you are and that controls you.”  - George Carlin

All of them believe in demons and demon possession.  The muslims are just as bad as the Christians.  

That priest is a tub of lard, isn't he?  I'll bet that the crowd would have gleefully burned the "donkey" at the stake if the priest had told them to do so.   The fact that the guy let himself get into such a situation indicates that the town is composed of 100% idiots.  Way too much inbreeding going on there.
