"Knock Knock" "Who's There?" "Gestapo!" "Gestapo Who?!" "Heh....fool...We Don't Knock"...
Someone recently sent me something. It was a chain letter type thing, and quite frankly, it pissed me right off. Here is the letter I got...
Never doubt the Word of God!!! Make a personal reflection about this. Very interesting, read until the end... It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7): " Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Here are some men and women who mocked God:
JOHN LENNON: Some years before during his interview with an American Magazine, he said: "Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain. Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, Today we are more famous than Him" (1966)" Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.
TANCREDO NEVES: During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency. Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.
CAZUZA: During a show in Canecão ( Rio de Janeiro ), whilst smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said: God, that's for you. I can't even explain how he died.
THE MAN WHO BUILT TITANIC: After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be. With an ironic tone he said: "Not even God can sink it" The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic.
MARILYN MONROE: She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show. He is a preacher and Evangelist and the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus" A week later, she was found dead in her apartment.
BON SCOTT: The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang: "Donôt stop me, Iôm going down all the way, wow the highway to hell". On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his vomit.
CAMPINAS/SP IN 2005 In Campinas, a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend. The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter - holding her hand, who was already seated in the car: "MY DAUGHTER, GO WITH GOD AND MAY HE PROTECT YOU", She responded: ONLY IF HE (GOD) TRAVELS IN THE BOOT, COZ INSIDE HERE IT'S ALREADY FULL" Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died, the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the boot was intact. The police said there was no way the boot could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the boot was a crate of eggs, none was broken.
Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that was given so much authority as the name of Jesus. Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive. JESUS!!!
P.S: If it was a joke, you could have sent it to everyone. So are you going to have courage to send this?. I have done my part, Jesus said "If you get embarrassed about me, I will also get embarrassed about you before my father What benefit does it have, if a man gains the whole world but loses his soul? What can man give in exchange of his soul? (Mathew 16:26).

First off.....I'm not against Christianity, I want to make that perfectly clear. I think that if you have a belief and it gives your life purpose and meaning, then it's a good thing.
Much like shock rockers, it's not the artist, but the fans that are a problem, and so goes the same thing with most religions. It's the followers that get a bit obsessive and the particular tactic they use here is complete batshit.
What tactic? The Fear tactic. Fear God and do what he says.....or else.
This makes me irate.
These people can't seriously believe, that God smote them for mocking him...
Yeah and you better not either lest the same thing happens to YOU!
Let me tell you something. I'm not Christian, but as I said above, I don't have a problem with it.
But I have read the bible, and if god made us in his own image Then. the guy has a sense of fucking humour.
He knows if you're damned and he knows if you're not. It isn't a big deal.
If you want to be a Christian, go love your fellow man, don't judge them, and don't send out dumb ass letters like this! You have better things to do like, oh I don't know, FEED A POOR PERSON!!
If you want to promote your religion, I don't have a problem with it either, just don't hit me with a dogmatic ultimatum. In fact it's this kind of thinking that turned me off of it in the first place.
It's funny how they didn't mention all the good virtuous things the people above did.....
Another thing , READ THE WHOLE BOOK!!! Just because one fucking Psalm or Corinthians makes sense to you doesn't mean you should take it so seriously by itself. Believe it or not (whether I agree with the book or not) there are some lessons in there....Like.. a lot of other books.....Take.a look at those instead.....
I'm not pissed at the person who sent this, Although I am curious as to why they thought I would dig it.
The person that composed it though can go floss their ass with a burning thistle bush!
LET THERE BE BLIGHT!!!!!
And he looked upon it, and saw that it was good!
