Well, assuming this guy was actually a "Bible thumper" (the "if God exists" caveat seems to argue otherwise), do you think he *wasn't* crazy for getting up close and personal with a big hungry predator?

Actually, I'm just miffed that he would use God as an "excuse" for his foolishness. I guess the bigger question is whether he thought he'd emerge unscathed. Something we'll never know.
