Check out this link.So here is the basic points of what happened with him, apparently. He skipped out on the combined because God told him that he would be drafted by the Seahawks if he took it easy. He then flew to Florida for an offseason training camp, but God told him to stay at the airport and do nothing, so he remained there for three days before calling a friend to come get him. His friend said he was still in his NFL combine gear when he picked him up. Here is the fun stuff now, that even the Christians have to agree with me that it is really messed up: "He also said he uses numbers to communicate with God and that he believes in Lord Rayel, a person who claims online to be the second coming of Christ... Raelism is a UFO religion founded and lead by Claude Vorilhon, now known as Rayel or Rael. Rayel claims that on December 13, 1973, while riding his motorbike to his office in France, he met with extra terrestrials near a volcano who told him they had created humans in laboratories. Muema is a believer in Lord Rayel, or Ra-El, who claims to be the Messiah after visiting another planet in 1975 Muema is a believer in Lord Rayel, or Ra-El, who claims to be the Messiah after visiting another planet in 1975. In 1975 he claims to have met with them again and traveled to their planet. These UFO' are called Elohim and Raelians believe messengers or prophets of the Elohim - such as Buddha and Jesus - were instructed to inform humans of each era. Rayel claims to have received the final message of the Elohim and that his purpose is to inform the world about Elohim and, if humans become aware and peaceful enough, they could be welcomed by them. Rayel said he was told to build an embassy near Jerusalem to spread the message of Elohim and the meaning of the universe. Followers, such as Muema, believe him to be the Messiah." Does not seemed at all messed up to me, it seems to be a cult but does not seem to hurt anybody. He thinks he hears the voice of God and its lead him to this religion or at least confirmed belief in it. That makes perfect sense to me. I am not going to rule out that he has something like schizophrenia or another mental disorder but I am not going to diagnose him from here. I am certainly not going to criticize what God says to him for being different than what God says to me. There is not a person here that if fully convinced they were hearing the voice of God would not be at least fully attentive to it. I do not see how you can fault the guy. He might have trouble fitting in within an NFL locker room or even society in general but his actions make sense to me.

You're right, reading over what I wrote, it doesn't sound any more messed up than most of the popular religions. And the fact that the cult is a peaceful one is a good thing. I just get really bothered reading about cults where they believe a man/woman who walks amongst them is divinely inspired because that man or woman has way too much power over those people, more power than a person should have. Yes, many politicians and world leaders have a ton of power too, but having power in this life is nothing compared to having power over the next life.

I don't know what God is tellin this kid, but Now, I haven't been paying attention to this guy, so might be taking his Tweets outta context but if there was ever any doubt, that's so incredibly sick, he's an absolute goner from the NFL. Wow, the brother and the sister got their comeuppance by virtue of blood relation, eh? Well, I called it from minute 1.

I don't know what God is tellin this kid, but What does that have to do with God? IDT it has anything to do with God per se, just what voices (in the name of God) he was hearing were telling him. I question whether he even believed it was God at this point, but he sounds so nuts it's not even worth pondering far as I'm concerned.
