Perhaps you could point out to me how this person is more delusional than say, Vice-Pres Pence, who believes in a literal interpretation of the Bible. IOW he believes that the universe was created in 6 days, that the Garden of Eden fable is true and real, that Noah built an ark and so on.

millions of people do, and have throughout history, and the fact that you either don't know that, blithely dismiss it as "delusional" or put it on par with being abducted by aliens marks you as you a fool.

Why? What difference does it make that millions of people believe a story, and have done throughout history, if it's still just a story?

Millions of people believed in the Flat Earth fable for millennia. That doesn't make it true. It didn't make it 'true' at the time when this particular notion was popular either. The Flat Earth fable was wrong, always wrong and always will be wrong, a fallacy forever.

Truth is not meant to be determined by a popularity contest.

So that leaves me still waiting for a single cogent or persuasive reason why this woman's beliefs are any more or less delusional than V-P Pence's ... it looks like I will be settling in for a long wait

Don't forget Mitt Romney's magic underpants.

I've never understood the mania around legalizing pot. Especially inventing the 50,000 wonderful things it supposedly does. I don't think people have proven they can be responsible with drugs anymore than they've proven they can be universally responsible with guns or alcohol.

Or responsible with voting, if we're going there.

Allowing some bit of sentient bizarreness is just a matter of courtesy in everyday life.

As Southerner, if in fact you actually grew up there, you should know this.

The question before us today is this: what is the difference between mere bizarreness and OTOH incredibly bad manners and indescribably boorish behavior?
