    The religious one is the worst. Just a bunch of hucksters and frauds worshiping an amoral con man. What’s with the weird touching? Is this some laying on of hands thing? Or do they just want to touch the golden calf for good luck?

      They’re praying for him. The power of JAY-zus comes down through them and pours out of their hands like a magic spell. Sometimes they’ll anoint their heads with oil, but I imagine that wouldn’t be good for the bronzer so of course he didn’t let them do that. Because sometimes magic spells have physical components along with their verbal and somatic components.
