Oh, now I am beginning to fully comprehend what we have in front of us. 
   This is a common phenomenon in the mentally unstable.  Delusion 
thinking.  People who think they descended from a lineage of always 
famous people, well beyond their abilities or capabilities.  These 
people are often amazingly articulate, sometimes even charismatic.  In 
spite of your dislike for them, many become leaders of odd religious 
orders, which eventually almost always end up participating in suicide 
pacts just before the "whatever it is prediction" is about to occur. 
Some don't even partake of the event, leaving just their followers to 
die, but usually in one way or another, they either come to some tragic 
end, or get themselves incarcerated, where they carve their initials (or 
heck, even Einstein's theory of relativity) into their forehead 
backwards so they can read it in the plastic mirror they are allowed to 
have.  To prove their superior intellect, they count the holes in each 
acoustic tile in their tiny room and determine the probability of 
nitrogen atoms successfully bouncing through them.
