Is it merely an irrational assumption? Or a deeply disturbing delusion?

How would you reason with this guy? Could you?
I can’t help but imagine a waterphone playing in the background as he whispers.
I often wonder about people like this. Did his religion drive him crazy?
Or is he religious because he’s already crazy?
Dilated pupils? This cowboy probably found some of these while he was cleaning the stables…
Bewildering insanity. Bet he’s a real hoot after a couple of beers.
Holy crap did you see his website?
Yikes I did check out his website and his other youtube channel and this guy is deeply delusional. He sincerely believes he is the in-the-flesh second coming, going so far as to develop a new calendar that begins on the day of his birth. He asks his ‘followers’ to mark themselves with a tattoo so he can recognize them because they do, after all, belong to ‘Him’.
Thoroughly creepy stuff.
With a little online detective work it was easy to get a bit of his RL history including information about some time he spent in a ‘federal facility housing male offenders requiring specialized or long-term medical or mental health care’.
He may seem harmless at first glance but after watching about a dozen of his videos he’s convinced me; he has lost all contact with reality. There’s no telling what might set him off, he readily admits to making mistakes in the past and acknowledges he likely will again and in his twisted logic this exemplifies his perfection.
I was glad to read in his blog that his children apparently have no physical access to him, although the videos he directs toward them imply he will be known by all on earth one day soon. Sad, and frightening.
I would be very concerned if he lived down the road from me. And that’s what bothers me now.. do his neighbors know he is this deranged? The local authorities? I’ve not found any direct or implied threats in his videos or writings -yet- and really don’t want to look at more of this creepshow but I’m almost compelled. I am concerned what he may be capable of when he tires of talking to himself.
I think this guy has managed to make Hovind, Comfort, and Ham seem almost reasonable. No, I don’t think anyone could reason with him, not sure if you could find enough common ground to make an attempt worthwhile. That level of throwed-off–he didn’t need religion, I think the religious elements, like the myriad of other concepts/words I heard, just got absorbed into his, his, uh fuckit, don’t have the words to describe that mess.
As to that waterphone, wow, very cool, it kinda like a thermin on steroids and acid. [I think if that guy in the video tried to take acid, it would leap out of his mouth in terror]
I wish he and Nephy would debate. After they debate they can hangout, get drunk, recite from the bible, and play with loaded guns.
I would argue that he needs to get back on his meds. This is the kind of thinking that fuels so much ignorance toward free thinkers.
Sounds from the beginning like he’s also a hollow earther. That’s sad, because we’ve had very good measurements of the curvature of the earth for thousands of years
I don’t think he’s crazy. He just wants to be one of the smartest people in the world and thinks he’s found a shortcut.
Does he mention the Foucault Pendulum?
I’m waiting until later tonight when I hit up the vape to watch this… the burn from stupid hurts less when your stoned…
5:20 – Ice chunks? WTF is he talking about? Snow? Hail? We have scientific explanations for those. Asteroids? Those aren’t chunks of ice. I don’t remember any comets hitting the earth recently. Do you?
Glass Dome? How is a human invention doming the earth? And why glass? Why not just ice?
And he’s right. The majority won’t believe him, because he’s full of shit.
18:10/b> – “That’s why we have seasons.”
He does know that not every place on the earth has seasons, right? And that not every place that has seasons has 4 seasons?
‘Cause that’s seems to be an important, missed point here.
18:48 – “I’ve seen the back of the sun, guys. In a vision. Yes, a vision.”
He needs help… the professional kind.
Let’s be honest… he disabled his comments because he knows his crap can be torn apart and is afraid of that.
It’s an old fashioned sort of woo called Khoreshianity. Been around since the 19th century. Surprised anyone still adheres to it. Just goes to prove that stupid BS never dies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koreshanity

the end of atheism
There is no gravity. The Earth sucks!
I think he should probably stick to what he’s good at. Judging by his mannerisms (or lack thereof) his vacant, near unblinking, stare and his incoherent monotone-droning, What he’s good at is opiate addiction. . . .
*of course I have no clue what his drug of choice is or weather he even has one, I’ve been around some junkies in my day though and this seems like pretty authentic opiate malaise*
*Not meant to shame people who are in fact addicted to drugs, addiction is an uphill struggle that many face on a daily basis. If you struggle or know someone who does you have my sympathies. Finding adequate, affordable care that doesn’t start with “I am totally incapable of helping myself pls God help me for me” is very difficult.*
Wasn’t it a character in the Hitchhiker’s guide who decided the entire universe deserved to be put in an asylum, and in order to achieve this he build an inside out asylum to live in? Anyone else reminded of that?
What I don’t get is how you go on like this for almost 35 minutes, without breaking. I’ve only made it about 5 minutes in, before I couldn’t take it anymore.
“That’s the truth guys!” Indeed in the section of the mental hospital for dangerous criminals.
I think he needs a mercy lobotomy…. I will hand it to him for memorizing all this disjointed
psychotic bullsh*t…
Well I’m up to 3:26 and stopping. He’s already having to invoke a floating layer of glass and ‘ether inside the earth’. As to his non-standard beliefs, I’m willing to think he was indoctrinated and now uses confirmation bias and rationalization to patch the unworkable system. No drugs needed. No mental illness (at least initially, might have developed one over time) needed. Unless he’s actually hurting other folks (or himself; noone is claiming here that he is) I don’t see the need for the State to intervene.
He’s responsible for himself but I have sympathy for his dependents (if any).
Oh on the waterphone – I had no idea that’s what makes those really annoying noises. I might have to get one to inflict on the neighbors.
Thorazine works great.
