It's not just Christianity.

Here is the description of this documentary from the YouTube page:

A documentary about filmmaker Vikram Gandhi who impersonates a wise Indian Guru and builds a following in Arizona. At the height of his popularity, the Guru Kumare must reveal his true identity to his disciples and unveil his greatest teaching of all.

I sometimes get accused of picking on Christianity.  But in fact it is the people who seem so determined to allow themselves to be fooled and manipulated, that I find myself so frustrated with. Though I have to admit I also feel kind of bad for these people.

I understand the desire to feel as if you are part of something bigger than just you alone, or to experience a connection to a certain spirituality, but the truth is that there are just so many people ready to take advantage of those who do not retain a healthy skepticism about the things they are asked to accept based solely on trust and faith.  Once we surrender our logic and reality based worldview we are suddenly bobbing in a sea of uncertainty, easy prey for false prophets, con artists, and faith healers who can smell our vulnerability, and desperate need to believe, like sharks attracted to the smell of blood and fear.
