I always worry about people who's big reason not to engage in debauchery or worse is 'Daddy God will punish me' or 'God told me not to'. I have this image of some of these people, some of the men in particular, getting up every morning and in their morning prayers asking, 'God, is it ok for me to rape and kill today?' And every day God tells them, 'No, those are still forbidden.' 'Darn.' I worry that such people are only one good schizophrenic episode away from turning into a serial killer. 'God spoke through a dog and told me to kill them.'
