The god's warrior lady is seriously mentally disturbed, and in a way I find gruesome and menacing.
Her brand of crazy is marked by the particular way she stresses the end parts of her exclamations, as if she is discovering as she reveals her experience the truth, no, the REAL tr- no, that's not enough either, the hysterical, guttural, stormy authenticity from way down in her SOUL! It's a frightening reminder that her religion is that which it teaches, an unmanageable, crazy-making dualism bearing no resemblance to the reality that life is not a two-splendored thing. She's the product of pure dogma. Sexy!
Pity can not describe my feelings for her family. If she were an unwavering alcoholic it would be pity. I think fear more closely captures the essence and extent of my empathy. This is the lady that instead of forcing her children to eat dog food and never emerge from the crucifix-infested basement, took her evil impulses out on her own mind.
