Hmf, they seem to believe that we will evolve into "fourth-dimensional" beings, and eventually fifth-dimensional beings.

I am truly glad I was raise atheist with Buddist relatives

Colonel...your Uncle is misguided.

This seems more like New Age bullshit than any form of fundamentalist Christianity.

Yes, of course, this is not Christianity. But it's fundamentalism, nonetheless. And he also defends the Bible, among all the other things.

He's rational as far as mundane matters are concerned (at least, for now), he doesn't go acting crazy all the time. My only consolation is that my 10 years old cousin thinks he's nuts, and my other cousin (a girl) is 20 and pretty rational.

Sorry for the confusion, it's just that when people say "fundie" around here they're generally referring to Christians.

Holy sheep shit, Olrik. Your uncle makes most Christian fundies look brilliant.

This thread reminds me of a friend I had who was a pagan/naturalist/anti-tech type. (But of course, he uses computers.) He's convinced that in August 2015, Earth's axis will tip in such a fashion that magnetic fields will wipe out all technology and humanity will have to return to nature, IF nature welcomes us back. (She's very pissed off, of course.)

Jesus H. Christ tipping a cow, these people crack me up. Personally, Olrik, I would love to meet your uncle just to have a good laugh.

I would suggest getting him in to a doctor, by force. He should be fitted for a long coat with extra long sleeves before he does something really crazy? Just how much crack did he have to smoke to get that dumb?

None, as far as I know. It comes naturally, for him.

The problem is that, as much as we think he needs a shrink, he's really of the same breed that all JW and other "doomsday" cults. His sect his harmless to others, as they don't advocate violence, hate, etc. They are waiting for the impending changes (while receiving reports from aliens) on Earth, not working actively for them. So, they're passive.

So, forcibly treating him would mean giving the same treatment to other fundies (not a bad thing, actually).

I say its time to have the man comitted. He's so far out there that we'd never be able to reach him, even with the fastest engines.

Wow, Olrik, you've got a major problem there, man... I never knew those idiots were already here. It's a good thing you tried to save your cousin, at least there was some sort of damage control.

36 dimensions, heh? Not even on LSD, I could see that many...

I've heard about these cults, grabbing key-words and distorting them to serve their purposes, but I thought they would be very few and very quiet, the champagne must have hit it in the right spot! (Unless, he's absthemic)

I'm sorry for your family...

Stuff like this is why I keep my mouth shut on the holidays. In the interest of family harmony, I go play with the kids when my Uncles start in on the "they're talking the Christ out of Christmas" rants.

They're good folks, but none of us is going to change the other's mind, so I go eat pie and play Yugioh with my younger cousins

Careful there. If you harass your uncle too much, he might try to have you arrested as a sects offender.

Run into his room one night and scream "Help! The ninth dimensional vibrations are interfering with the magnetic ascendency flows emanting from Alpha Proxima! The pyramids are awakening at last!"

Or light a circle of candles and chant prayers to Cthulhu in Latin while looking him evilly in the eye.

are you sure he is serious?

Do you know what would be funny? If people from his cult came over here.

They have no proof of thier mysticism, and use a scientific conspiracy to prove they're right. Of course, the laws of physics are part of this conpiracy.

SWPIGWANG wrote:are you sure he is serious?

Yes. He's on this for years, always getting worse. You should see his office, at home. He has covered the walls with mystical signs and crappy new age books. He is always working on dozens of papers, of his own or of other sect members. He goes to weirdo conventions too meet his lunatic comrades. Sigh. Hopeless.

Oh, and when my grandmother was dying he painted a giant yellow flower on the walls of the house. When my mother went there and realized what he had done, almost had a stroke (my mother is a medical doctor, so imagine the war she had with him, because of his insistence of treating my grandmother with spells and mumbojumbo)

It would be of no use arguing with them. They're Wall of Ignorance (TM) is made of solid neutrinium, at least. They live in La La Land. But, feel free to dissect their site. And send them the remains of their articles.
