Well Joan of Arc's delusion helped the French actually win a battle. That's pretty scary.
Damn Ric Flair has to be the best character on Y!A

I'm definitely not the only one who sees how much this relates to Christianity?
A man who pretends to represent God and misinterprets his words is definitely just as scary as a God who chooses to be ambiguous about what he says...

God's word is for inspiration, and to be interpreted by His people. ( those whose God is the Lord) When you read a passage of scripture, sometimes the message is not clear, to you, but if someone can come and expound on those word for you. Have your parent ever said something to you that left you puzzle as a young person, how ever as you mature you were able to understand it better
And Philip ran thither to [him], and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
8:31
And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
8:32
The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
8:33
In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
8:34
And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
8:35
Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
8:36
And as they went on [their] way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, [here is] water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?

Have to say the man. Even if scripture were plain-as-day understandable to every person on the planet, people would still twist it to justify their actions. That's not God's fault.

These are not present, so I could not pick one to be scarier than another.
The only thing that scares me is a person who can make a positive difference in the world, yet brings on negative influences instead..isn't that crazy?
