Once people have the liberty to engage in something that was once forbidden, they tend to go overboard. The strict Pentecostal upbringing of Tammy Faye, where women were discouraged from wearing cosmetics, probably led to her fetish for excessive makeup. The Walk's negativity toward Christmas, based on John's teaching, likely led to Rick's crazy zeal toward celebrating it. My experience of being told to shut up at church meetings, likely has led to excessive posting of amateurish opinions in various internet forums. Just a few examples...

p.s. the seat at the head of the Nephilim table is now occupied by Miller, for unknown reasons.
