If you are an infidel, is there a long distance in the sanity continuum between believing in Thor, and believing that Thor speaks to you? I think you draw a distinction that is more centered on how you would like to perceive Bush than on any substantive difference in wackdom.

The difference is between those who believe the Almighty Em speaks TO them (i.e., "harmless kooks") and those who believe the Almighty Em speaks THROUGH them, and that gives them the right and duty to tell us all how the world should be and how we should behave (i.e, "zealots", "jihadists", "fundamentalists", "anti-abortion protesters", "creationists", etc.).
