This is What Happens When Engineers Play Paper Airplane

Alex

The engineers at Neopost, a company that manufactures postal meter and mailroom equipment, put their expertise to good use by creating a machine that automates the folding of paper airplanes.

It takes about three seconds for the automatic paper airplane folder (for lack of a better term) to convert a plain sheet of paper into a fully functional, flying paper airplane. The machine-precision extends even to the flying: every airplane flies along the same flight path into a cardboard box a few feet away.

Paperless office would have to wait for a few more years thanks to this bit of office fun!

I feel sorry for the woman and her loved ones, but if you believe in demons...how about ghosts? or fairies? maybe good luck charms, or voodoo dolls and black magic? How about prayer to imaginary gods?

Maybe this woman was just severely mentally ill possibly due, in part, to a strict religious upbringing/indoctrination.

That's my opinion.

I've heard the excuse that religion is good for people who deal with depression, but I can tell you that with my friend who is bi-polar, the belief in alchemy and mysticism does little to offer him motivation on personal development. Statistics have shown that 79% of Native American shamans deal with Schizophrenia (and probably means the other 21% are frauds), and in a way, use that status to cope with the weird shiz going on in their head. But, I'm not surprised about the downsides it can bring as well, and I don't enjoy the idea of confusing some one's already disturbed reality with even more magical woo, and although things aren't perfect with our understanding of the brain, it's better then what any religion can cook up.

I think it's a bit irresponsible to put this on an entertainment website. People who suffer from such problems should not be exposed to the curiosity of the public. The last sentence of the first paragraph of your quote shows the writer has an unnerving lack of empathy.
