How scary is this?

An American Airlines pilot terrified passengers when he asked Christians to identify themselves and allegedly went on to call non-Christians 'crazy'. Some passengers on the flight from Los Angeles to New York were so worried they tried to call relatives on their mobile phones.

The pilot, whose name was not released, asked Christians on Friday's flight to raise their hands. He then suggested non-Christians talk to the Christians about their faith. ...He continued to say, 'Well, you have a choice: you can make this trip worthwhile, or you can sit back, read a book and watch the movie',' ...The pilot also told passengers he would be available for discussion at the end of the flight...Flight attendants notified ground control.

American Airlines spokesman Tim Wagner said the incident was being investigated. 'It falls along the lines of a personal level of sharing that may not be appropriate for one of our employees to do while on the job,' he added.

Personal sharing? Sounds like a nut job to us.
