Allah in my inbox!
 
So who else received the mass email about converting to Islam? Growing up in Muslim countries I am totally cool with Islam, but I found this message hilarious. It reminded me of an extreme Southern Baptist hellfire and brimstone sermon!

LucyKKG 05-13-2010 03:47 PM

AOII Angel 05-13-2010 03:58 PM

I hope this doesn't become a new spammer fad. :(

ComradesTrue 05-13-2010 04:01 PM

I got it twice!

That is three spam PMs for me in 24 hours for those keeping score at home.

RaggedyAnn 05-13-2010 04:07 PM

Me too. :(

ForeverRoses 05-13-2010 04:07 PM

I got it too! does that mean I'm finally one of the cool kids? :p

aggieadpi_01 05-13-2010 04:09 PM

Yes, here's the secret passcode for the clubhouse!

lovespink88 05-13-2010 04:13 PM

Even though it's spam, I feel left out cause I didn't get one :(

LucyKKG 05-13-2010 04:16 PM

^^ I didn't get it either. I don't feel left out.

We can start our own club. ;)

aggieadpi_01 05-13-2010 04:18 PM

Just so you guys won't feel left out!

Excuse me !!
Excuse me!!
Would you stop for a moment?!
O...man...Haven't you thought-one day- about yourself ?
Who has made it?
Have you seen a design which hasn't a designer ?!
Have you seen a wonderful,delicate work without a worker ?!
It's you and the whole universe!..
Who has made them all ?!!
You know who ?.. It's "ALLAH",prise be to him.
Just think for a moment.
How are you going to be after death ?!
Can you believe that this exact system of the universe and all of these great creation will end in in nothing...just after death!
Have you thought, for a second, How to save your soul from Allah's punishment?!
Haven't you thought about what is the right religion?!
Read ... and think deeply before you answer..
It is religion of Islam.
It is the religion that Mohammad-peace upon him- the last prophet, had been sent by.
It is the religion that the right Bible- which is not distorted-has preached.
Just have a look at The Bible of (Bernaba).
Don't be emstional.
Be rational and judge..
Just look..listen...compare..and then judge and say your word.

They may not have gone down the list to you yet.

OleMissGlitter 05-13-2010 04:46 PM

Me too! I kind of wish we had a way to prevent that. My husband said on a message board he posts on you have to have had your username for like a month before you can post anything or even send private messages.

Kappamd 05-13-2010 04:49 PM

^^That would be nice.

Another board I post on requires so many messages before you can post images, and then another so many before you can post links. It goes a long way to cutting down on the spam.

IrishLake 05-13-2010 04:58 PM

Yay! I get to join the club too!

chickenoodle 05-13-2010 05:20 PM

I got the spam too. I prefer the kind that comes in a can, not my inbox.

bostongreek 05-13-2010 06:33 PM

I got it twice...

GeorgiaRose 05-13-2010 07:15 PM

I got it - it was very bizarre considering I rarely post and my last post involved satin jeans - maybe I do ned to find religion!:)

Sister Havana 05-13-2010 07:17 PM

ADPiTigergurl 05-13-2010 07:43 PM

Ugh, me too.

DaemonSeid 05-13-2010 07:56 PM

I am totally coming out of the closet and going muslim.

But if I still believe in the bible does that make bi-religious?

RU OX Alum 05-13-2010 08:03 PM

so....Islam is a sect of Christianity?

I mean, I know it isn't but that's how their website read. Reads.

IlovemyAKA 05-13-2010 08:28 PM

I got it.

aephi alum 05-13-2010 08:58 PM

I didn't get it.

Apparently, we Jews are a lost cause.

dreamseeker 05-13-2010 09:03 PM

LucyKKG 05-13-2010 09:27 PM

Oh, apparently I did get it. I guess I just didn't see it til now. Weird.

libramunoz 05-14-2010 12:24 AM

No, I think that makes you bi-sect-ual.

lol!:D

there's nothing I hate more than people pushing their religion on you. doesnt matter what religion it is. I've never had Islam shoved in my face, but it's just as bad as some parts of christianity or scientology.

DrPhil 05-14-2010 09:17 AM

I received that PM. Before I read it, I thought it was a sockpuppet trying to cuss me out about something. LOL.

Really? Maybe it's just where I live, but I seem to have people of all different faiths showing up at my door. I sometimes wonder if they are going to fight with each other if they are all in the neighborhood at the same time! But, I can usually guess what group they are with based on dress and day of the week.

IrishLake 05-14-2010 09:47 AM

The most I ever get is some young Mormons, or the occassional Jehova's witness. The JW I see maybe a handful of times a year, and he's a sweet old man who just hands me a copy of The Watchtower, wishes me a good day, and goes on to the next house. The young Morman men I see once or twice a month in my neighborhood. While they've never been rude to me, they are persistant. If my dogs are in the backyard though, they don't bother coming up my driveway... apparently a giant german shepherd and a giant mastiff are enough to keep people away! We get the occassional evangelical christian in the summers too, handing out fliers advertising bible school for the kids and day-long revivals for the adults. They tend to be the pushiest... I tell them I'm Catholic, and they consider me a challenge or something. Rarely do things get rude... but my husband can bring that out of people (rolling my eyes).

groovypq 05-14-2010 10:21 AM

Man, I still haven't gotten one. I feel so un-cool.

DaemonSeid 05-14-2010 10:33 AM

groovypq...check ur inbox

DrPhil 05-14-2010 10:36 AM

People who preach in public places such as courtyards aside, I think I have only been personally confronted by Jehovah's Witnesses. Maybe the other groups were easily forgotten.

But, this may offend some folks, I generally can't stand Jehovah's Witnesses. We have enough religion being shoved in our faces without people coming to our homes. When I say "no thank you, but Jesus definitively saves (as far as my family and I are concerned). God bless and thanks for the magazine," that usually gets them to move on. But, there have been a few who won't move on. This is when I ask the Lord to forgive me as I get mean and damn near cuss someone out. No, we do NOT want to talk you. No, you can NOT find out our schedules and children's schedules so you can plan visits to follow-up and "check on us."

Woosah.

DaemonSeid 05-14-2010 10:42 AM

Then there are the lazy Jehovah Witnesses who try to get you while they sit in their parked cars...
