Just when we thought that spam was largely confined to the Internet and to the likes of George Mooth, this arrived in my largely unused natmail box. rocket77@one.net said "hi" to don martin, adding: ro> Apparently-to: Don_Martin@f1000.n261.z1.fidonet.org ro> From: rocket77@one.net ro> Hello! I wanted to share something very important. Anonymous persons have nothing to share that is very important. Gutless threats and libel are their stock in trade. ro> You know each of us only has one life to live. Wotta news flash! ro> We need to make decisions now that will determine our future. Inasmuch as we can make decisions neither in the past nor in the future, now _does_ look like the appropriate time, if we are to make any at all, yes. ro> The God of heaven Got any evidence that this god of yours is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> sent his only Son to this earth Got any evidence that this subgod of yours is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> to let us have a way to be right with God, Got any evidence that this god of yours is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> have God's help in this life This life, as you point out above, is the only one we have. ro> and one day be in heaven Got any evidence that this heaven of yours is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> with God. Got any evidence that this god of yours is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> There in heaven is peace, rest, love and joy. Possibly. Do you have any evidence that the place is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> We definitely don't want to go to the other place called hell. Got any evidence that this hell of yours is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> In hell, there is darkness, thirst, torment and weeping and ro> gnashing of teeth. Possibly. Do you have any evidence that the place is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> So how can we enjoy God's blessing now ro> and be in heaven? Let me guess . . . . Perhaps by joining you in your delusions? ro> Simple, receive Jesus Christ as Savior. Got any evidence that this hitherto unidentified person is anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> It says And just what is this talking "it" to which you refer? Jesus Christ is the most recent possible antecedant: is this person neutered as well as being imaginary? ro> that if we will confess with our mouth the Lord Jesus I suppose confessing with our assholes would not count? (though we _do_ see quite a lot of that around here). ro> and believe in our heart That may be your problem: most of us use brains for such activities. ro> that God raised him from the dead I love it when one imaginary construct comes to the imaginary assistance of another. ro> we will be saved. From what? Getting trash mail from anonymous loons? ro> We can simply pray: Heavenly Father, ro> forgive me of my sins and I now confess Jesus Christ ro> as the Lord of my life and I believe in my heart ro> (with everything in me) Kee-rist, now you are including the spleen and pancreas as organs of belief. Next you'll be dragging in your testicles with which to testify your testaments! (Probably do you a world of good). ro> that you raised Jesus Christ ro> from the dead. The Word of God (the Bible) says that you ro> are now saved! And does this imaginary author hold the imaginary copyright? When persons propose to crank out new translations of this work, where do they sign the royalty contracts? ro> You are now a child of God, transferred ro> from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light! Got any evidence that either of these "kingdoms" are anything but a construct of human imagination? ro> Jesus is now your Good Shepherd, taking care of you and ro> helping you! Will he give me the money for back rent he owes Lynda Bustilloz? That would be helpful. ro> Thanks for reading and choosing life. It's been a slow mail day. FIDO seems to be belching again, and this is about the only thing that came up the old esophagus. ro> Hope to hear from you soon! I rarely write _to_ anonymous twits, though I often write _about_ them. To me it is a great wonder that such people suppose their religious notions to be best conveyed to others in the form preferred by writers of poison pen letters, and I enjoy trifling with the inept prose of the illiterate. Those whose religion is more than a masturbatory fantasy, best enjoyed in secret, have the guts to sign their names to their correspondence. George Mooth is probably no brighter than you and every bit as delusional, but he at least has the courage of his convictions. ... Through a Jaundiced Eye Darkly--Rheum With a View
