I have one, who lives in CO (so thankfully doesn't visit much), who has declared himself "a prophet". He believes all of the mainstream churches operate off flawed versions of the Bible, and that all of us,who do not believe like he does, are condemned to hell.
Wouldn't you LOVE to come have dinner with him?
Re: So who else has a crazy uncle?
not completely unrelated, I'm currently watching this show on the national geographic channel about cults-
there are a lot of crazy people out there.
sorry, no crazy uncles to talk about.
I have an uncle who is a total redneck and pretty much thinks that anything Jeff Foxworthy says is gold. He loves duct tape, and is a total outdoors man, fishing, hunting etc. He swears ALL THE TIME, drops the F bomb like its nobody's business...and is a total homophobe.
But let me tell you, I THINK HE'S AWESOME.
Is he a FLDS?
You would think...but no.
I met a couple who were getting married and it was his 7th marriage and her 5th...
True story.
I guess I don't understand the logic there...8th time's the charm? WTF.
My uncle's, or Jill's? Mine is because he has done years of theological study and has done his own interpretation of the bible from the original language, and he therefore understands much more than any of us possibly could about what God actually wants.
Oh, or that he's an idiot.
Yes...you. Sorry I wasn't more specific.
Maybe you should cut him some slack. He obviously knows a lot more about the spiritual world than we do. Obviously, I mean, God didn't talk to YOU or ME...your uncle obviously has a mission. You shouldn't get in his way! haha
Just one?
) I have a paranoid schizophrenic uncle who lives in So. California in his 1 bedroom house he has painted all of the windows black. Does that count as crazy????
Another uncle in Illinois has gone to prison a few times for drugs.
