Awesome fan mail I got

Subject: Your article about "The Passion"
This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Faraci,

This evening while searching the Web for information about "The Passion", I happened to stumble across an article you had written a few months ago. I was no less than appalled after I had made my way through only half of your article. And then, after reading the things you wrote under the pictures from the film, my appall turned to fury. How on earth did you think that making fun of the death of Jesus Christ would be humorous? I understand that is how it was supposed to be taken, as humor, but again I ask you, how is the death of Jesus humorous? There are just some things that you cannot make light of, and that is one of them. I don't care what religious belief, personal preference, or et cetera, I don't see how anyone could appreciate the remarks you made in your article. I can tell by reading your article that you must not be a Christian, I won't waste my time preaching to you about how Jesus died for your sins, (even though He did) , but I will PRAY that you have enough respect in the future to not make fun of Jesus Christ, his life or death, or any film being made about either. If all you reporters and columnists can write articles about how upset the Atheists are about this film, surely you all have enough time to worry about upsetting the Christians. I realize that my opinion will mean nothing to you, and this letter will probably get deleted as fast as you can hit the button, but I hope that this letter from a 20 year old, Christian, has touched maybe some little part of your conscience.
God Bless You.
Mrs. Dessie Brown


My response:

You're a 20 year old female?

Do you have naked pictures of yourself?

Once again Dev makes my day. Genious.

Massive missed opportunity there for a crack about "touching a little part". You're slipping.

So, despite your best efforts, my appal also turns to fury.

You are a vicious bastard, Devin. I love it.

You got off light. I've gotten WAY worse hate mail from the fundies.

Hope this girl never stumbles across The Life of Brian. Her skull would probably implode.

That's awesome.

And if you get any photos (and the subject doesn't represent a Wal-Mart cashier) please remember to share.

Great email. Christians never fail to amuse. She probably visits capreports for fair reviews.

I didn't think that Atheists had a problem with this flick.

...and Jesus died 2,000 years ago...

It's okay to make a joke. Good job, Devin.

Also, what is a 20 year old doing as a Mrs.? That seems wrong....

At least she reads the homepage...

Not in biblical times, which she apparently still lives in.

Maybe the whole abstinence thing was too much to bear, so she picked the first john that came along.

Found it! (And remember, this was in response to a FANTASY novel written for goddamn CHILDREN)

"i like your book untill u had the caracters use MAGIC. We all no that MAGIC is the work of the DEVIL. the only real power come from THE LORD JESUS CRIST. U r obvously a terribile person and you will BURN IN HELL FUCKER. I will pray for u, Sarah."

I think it's the misspelling of Christ's name that catches you off guard, then, before you can recover, she hits you with the random "BURN IN HELL FUCKER." Bam. Plus, she's hopefully still praying for me, which is nice of her.

And even though it wasn't meant as hate mail, I got the worst compliment ever last night from "realstnigga84," who said my "shit was awesome because even though i was stoned wheen i was reading it i still new what was goin on so thats how i know ur a fucking good righter."

I love hate mail so much.

Don't know I've always been more keen on the old testament, you know Wrathful God and All, and Eye for an Eye, and Slay all infidel dogs that don't pray to the one God kind of thing.

And yes I am joking before anyone goes overboard.

Cheers!

Where's the hate? Not one "Ur goin strate ta HELL fer that" in the whole thing. She was offended and shared that. I don't see a problem.

Not nearly as bad as the God awful waitress I had to endure at stake and shake two years ago. She wouldn't shut up about how evil Harry Potter is. How it's the devils work, and it's warping the minds of young children with its talk of sorcery and magic conjuring.

Give me a break!

I'm a Christian and I'M insulted by the stupidity and ignorance of these people.

I think she's an anti-semite, since she seems to think Jews are athiests
post #27 of 72
Look, guys, we ALL have gotten pissed about people who apparently tarnish the memory of our favorite fictional character/superhero at one time or another.

All ye who are without anger becasue of changes made to the origin/powers of X-Men/Spider-man/Daredevil/Batman/Superman/etc, cast the first stone in a glass house that gathers no moss.

Or something.

Then again, I think that we should take account of the level of the offense.

Devin, what did you do?

Did you give Jesus organic web-shooters, or was it something REALLY bad, like having him fight a Joker with an altered origin?

It matters.

Absolutely the most concentrated group of unintelligent, uninformed, and inconsiderate human beings I have ever seen, right here on CHUD.

I lose respect for you people more every day.

Care to enlighten us, HMT, or is it only worth it to insult us and leave?

He's a devoted Christian, and I'm sure quite offended at this whole business himself.

You paint with broad strokes. Care to use a detailer's brush?

Comparing devoted Christians to a rabid comic book fanbase endlessly amuses me. Thank you so very much for that you bunch of unintelligent, uninformed, and inconsiderate human beings.

HMT, will you pray for us lowly heathens?

Though I don't think that her email was not without warrant, but I think she could have come off better, especially if she said she was a Christian.

And here, it looks like she is saying, I'm better than you cause I'm a Christian, but yet I point a finger because you poke fun at my beliefs.

I bet no one posting here knows what article she is talking about.

Give me a little more credit than that, Dev.
post #40 of 72
When did all you Christians turn off the Self-Effacing Humor lobes of your brains?

You think Christ is Holy and untouchable. Some of us don't. Try to cope with that reality, eh?

And this probably needs to be moved to the Religion forum at this point...

He's right, you know.

No comic book fan ever burned anyone at the stake, had an Inquisition, or converted Indians under torture!

Yeah, sometimes rabid comic book fanbases have a sense of humor.
post #43 of 72
You know....making fun of something like that is bad. She had every right to be insulted by your making fun of the death of Jesus. And your response might be the most immature thing Ive ever read. You dont have any respect at all do you Devin? Im usually amused by you.....but sometimes, you pull shit like this.....and Im not.

They aren't.

But you do reap the whirlwind for what you do make fun of.

Somethings are in just bad taste.

But bad taste has never been out of bounds either.

They shouldn't be. It's the only way to keep people from getting all high and mighty with this "I'm better than you are because I have God" attitude. Personally I don't see why people get all offended and up in arms about anything. Being "offended" is nothing more than a weakness of the mind in my opinion. It is the inability to control ones emotions and to debate adequately to support your own belief. It's the mental equivalent to a temper tantrum.

Then come back with some pithy and withering jokes about atheists and non-believers. Don't just whine about being "offended". Or is your faith not strong enough to withstand some bad jokes about it?
