Fundies of all stripes the Muslims and the Xtians, need to take themselves and their beliefs a lot less seriously.
Your beliefs will really be challenged when someone's dog takes a shit on your lawn in the shape of the Virgin Mary. Is it a sign from God? Is it art?

These are the defining moments that shape a person.
It is said that one cannot truly obtain the status of "unstoppable killing machine" until they have stared down the barrel of questions like these.
