Although you might think these people are crazy or even stupid at least they are not suicide bombers killing people in the name of their religion.

What do you think brainwashing will ultimately lead to?

Hopefully they'll just try to wave their hands to knock the rest of us down.

So I take it that we are to believe that the hand of God is knocking these people down? It amazes me that so many people in that video were willing to lie to themselves and convince themselves that they weren't just letting themselves fall down.

Those people are basically hypnotized and/or brainwashed. They would do pretty much anything that guy tells them. That's the basic premise of fanatical religious violence.

My favourite one is where he pushed the old lady over and the dude who is behind here thats supposed to catch here messes up and just lets her drop on the floor :p.

Anyways, there people aren't killers its true, but just as many people have been killed in the name of the Christian god as have been in the name of the Muslim god, so don't go saying Christian nuts are much better. These people might not kill you, but there are sure gonna make your life hard if you don't ascribe to their beliefs.

What was he doing? Demonstrating the power of God by laying the smack down on everyone around him?

What I am wondering is why no one hit him back and knocked his scrawny a$$ out. Oh I'm gonna have to go to one of those sometime and shake things up a bit.

Right. So when's the last time you heard about a bunch of Christians from some superchurch going out and spreading the good bombs of Jesus? Didn't think so.

The capacity is there. That is my point. The only difference between those people and violent religious fundamentalists is that the person on the stage happens to not be telling them to kill anything...at the moment. The blind, ignorant, religious automaton "I'll believe anything you say" mentality is certainly there though - hence the capacity for violence is there.

A true fundamental Christian will reject a pastor who advocates suicide murder.

That is exactly what moderate muslims say about their religion as well. Doesn't quite work out that way though.

I don't think they're crazy and stupid.

I know it.

And if they had a far, far lower standard of living, with much less to lose, and weren't living in the world's superpower? If they believed that superpower oppressed them and their god?

People like this will believe whatever "God" says, or whatever their pastor tells them God said, no matter what their previous beliefs were.

Brainwashing like this lays the seeds for things like terrorism. If you can brainwash someone into believing this is the hand of God knocking them down, you can brainwash them into believing God wants them to kill Americans.
