Let me tell you about my crazy friend, Gary. We've been friends since High School (I graduated HS in 1968) We stayed in touch during the 20 years I was in the Air Force. Over the last 15 years, or so, he has gotten weirder, and weirder and weirder. He is in some strange cult that has picked through the bible and chosen what to believe. There are only 6 of them in Topeka. They take turns meeting at each other's houses and watching videos. They spend a lot of time trashing the Gospel and working out things to say to Christian friends to try and confuse them. He tried to trash Christianity to my face several times until I PUT A STOP TO IT. He truly believes that the US government blew up the world trade centers. The proof, he says, is that the government cleaned up the mess really fast and dumped it in the ocean so nobody would have a chance to see that there was NO airplane wreckage in the rubble. The airplanes crashing into the towers was photo shopped. We did NOT go to the moon. He says there is "Compelling evidence out there". He is a homeopathic medicine nut. Regular doctors don't care if you live or die, all they want to do is, "Cut, Burn and Poison". Every non-homeopathic doctor in the country is in on a conspiracy to just prescribe unneeded drugs and pocket the kickbacks from the drug reps. He just found out he has stage 3 Colon cancer, and his quack doctor has him on a diet of Kale, lettuce beets, etc. Because according to him, homeopathic cancer cures have a 95% success rate and chemo is less than 5%. When he sees a jet flying high up in the air and leaving a contrail, he thinks that the white vapor is mind control drugs from the government. He only drinks 'magic' water from his special filtering machine. It not only filters the water, but it ionizes it in a way that changes the pH of your blood. Trust me, you can't permanently change the pH of your blood. I could go on, but you get the point. It is getting REAL hard to still be his friend. I need to stand by him because of the cancer, but It is hard to be around him.
