HAYDEN, Idaho (AP) -- A man who believed he bore the biblical "mark of the beast" used a circular saw to cut off one hand, then he cooked it in the microwave and called 911, authorities said.

The man, in his mid-20s, was calm when Kootenai County sheriff's deputies arrived Saturday. He was in protective custody in the mental health unit of Kootenai Medical Center.

"It had been somewhat cooked by the time the deputy arrived," sheriff's Capt. Ben Wolfinger said. "He put a tourniquet on his arm before, so he didn't bleed to death. That kind of mental illness is just sad."


These poor indoctrinated souls are truly sad.

Man that is so intense. I guess when we've got 300 million people, we're going to have those people in the tails! What a shame.

It seems a shame to waste it, when there are pets going hungry.

4. It's too bad he microwaved it

We're pretty good at reattaching hands that have been cut off like that. Skill saw cuts are usually the best in the sense that they're the cleanest so it's easiest to put the pieces back together.

5. If he didn't see the "mark of the beast" it would have been controled by space aliens

or the government, or something else of the like. We need real healthcare in this country.

29. Hmmm...

Wonder what kind of saw blade he used...

A smooth cut finish blade..



segmented diamond rim blade maybe?



If all he had was a masonry blade that really would have hurt like a bitch...

I am offended that the police, who represent our evil gummint, take it upon themselves to label religion as mental illness!

I think this thread should be locked.
