I have mixed feelings about it. My first gut instinct thoughts....."What a wack job a person has to be to take that snippit out of a creatively interpreted book and make it such a literal part of their lives" My second thought....."Ooookayyyyyy, whatever floats your boat! It's your ass." The reality is that I already have some strong anti-organised religioun views and the extremes, such as this one, only feed into strengthening my feelings. From a medical standpoint, it is obvious what is happening. They can attribute it to god all they want but, most people are educated enough to know otherwise. Which leads to another thought I have of this type of religioun. Usually not the brightest, most educated, or very vulnerable, seem to be drawn into any extreme religious practice. The people I've seen interviewed for articles and documentaries, on this subject, were indicative of the first two.
