Ok, can I just say that I'm tired of those religious chain letters which end with something like (text and all):
If you believe in God and in Jesus Christ His Son, you may wish to send it on .... If not, just ignoreit.
If you ignore it, just remember that Jesus said.

Wow that's nefarious. And it would break my heart if Jesus didn't pass on a chain letter that cheaply exploited my name Originally posted by Challenger Grim

Have you not seen that before, Hamster? It's like... on every chain letter about religion (and some that aren't) that's ever passed through my inbox. Originally posted by Hamster
Of course, since they're usually sent to me via my family, I'm like "yeah, I know we all believe, not really news

The Chain Letter of Paul to the Corinthians
The Chain Letter of Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians. With love all things are possible. This epistle comes to you from Philippi. Grace be to you and peace. Spiritual gifts will be delivered unto you within four days of receiving this letter - providing you in turn send it on.
This is no joke. Send copies to whomsoever among the Gentiles or superstitious peoples of other denominations you would comfort in all their tribulation. Do not send material things. Love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.
While visiting the household of Stephanas, a Macedonian proconsul received the epistle and was greeted by his brethren by a holy kiss. But he broke the chain, and now he is become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.
Gaius bestowed all his goods to feed the poor, and gave his body to be burned, but it profited him nothing. He failed to circulate the letter. However, before his death, he received the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
Do note the following: Crispus had the gift of prophecy, and understood all mysteries, and all knowledge, and had all faith, so that he could remove mountains. But he forgot that the epistle had to leave his hands within 96 hours, and now he is nothing.
In AD 37, the epistle was received by a young Galatian woman who put it aside to copy and send out later. She was plagued by various problems: thrice she was beaten with rods, once she was stoned, and thrice suffered shipwreck. On the last day of these occasions, she spent a night and day in the deep. Finally, she copied the letter. A trumpet sounded, and she was raised incorruptible.
Remember: Believeth all things, hopeth all things. The chain never faileth.

It is generally accepted that 1 Timothy 5:18 quotes Luke 10:7 ("The worker deserves his wages").

yeah he doesn't even make any sense. basically any objection is valid for him as long as he doesn't have to agree with Christians. He might as well proposed it was the tooth fairy who said it. Originally posted by Mountain Man

I keep seeing the chain caption on Facebook about posting that you love Jesus to the whole world, and to copy and paste if you aren't ashamed, and if you don't copy and paste then Jesus might deny you on judgement day.
The same happens with friendship; people keep saying "Let's see who REALLY is my friend and who REALLY looks at my Facebook page. Copy and paste this onto your Facebook page if you REALLY are my friend and so who else is REALLY your friend."
I never do it because I don't mind it when a narcissist deletes me for not feeding that person's narcissism. I have a hard time being friends with people who have selfishness issues."Everybody wants to go to heaven. They just don't want God to be there when they get there." Paul Washer
