Some prophets are really stupid

I just got an e-mail from a man who has a website with "Church of Jesus Christ..." in its name. His message to me was simply:

"God needs you!"

I didn't look at the website, but I replied to him:

"I have no idea who you are, but long ago I learned NEVER to pay heed to anybody who is so insufferably arrogant as to tell me that he has a message for me from God. Such a person is either a lunatic, a moron, or a con man."

He promptly replied:

"I am not a con man!"

OK. He didn't select between the other two, but I guess he admits to one of them.

Re: Some prophets are really stupid

That's classic comedy. Reminds me of an exchange on "The Golden Girls":

BLANCHE: Rose, what did you think of me the first time you met me?

ROSE: I thought you wore too much makeup and were a slut. I was wrong. You don't wear too much makeup!

Re: Some prophets are really stupid

I finally did google his name and I checked his website.

He is a past director of a company called "Snake Oil".

His website promotes his new church (he is presently a high priest in the LDS church) for "natural healing," touting cures for cancer using natural herbs.

He says that "Satin" is fighting him, but he is no longer a "cowered".

Stupid is as stupid does.

"...he has a message for me from God..."

I'm thinking he might be one of the Blues Brothers?

I guess that was a mission from God.

This is too funny. Even after reading all the replies, I'm still laughing. I love how you handle all these letters, Richard, I'd love to see the faces when they read your replies. =)

Actually, the person probably doesn't understand the reply.
