When it comes to matters of faith, some people completely lose their senses, making religion the opium of the masses.
A preacher from Mozambique passed away after fasting for 40 days in an effort to break the world record set by Jesus on the Mount of Olives in the Bible.
On Wednesday, it was officially announced that Francisco Barajah, the founder and pastor of the Santa Trindade Evangelical Church in Manica's central region, had passed away.
He was sent in critical condition to a hospital in Beira, where he passed away while receiving medical care.
He had lost so much weight after 25 days of fasting that he was unable to move, stand up, or take a bath.
Days later, he was transferred to a hospital at the urging of family members and believers, but efforts to revive him were fruitless.
Due to his drastic weight loss and altered body shape in recent days, members of his church and his neighbors were not surprised by the course of events.
Users of social media who have read this heartbreaking yet amusing story have criticized the pastor for killing himself out of stupidity.
