Beware of the Satanic conspiracy of the WHORISH Roman Catholic Church. The Pope and his puppets have attempted to infiltrate and subvert the Protestant Christian church using corrupt modern translations of the Bible. These are nothing more than religious filth that have spewed forth from the deceitful pens of Satan-inspired men in league with the Vatican. Don't let them lure you into following them into Hell. The 1611 Authorized (King James) Version of the Holy Bible is the only book that God ever wrote. All other alleged translations are frauds written by the Devil himself.
For further information regarding this damnable Satanic conspiracy, contact me:

It looks like Ralph Stokes has finally learned about Internet and Usenet gateways and is now spreading his prenicious religious bigotry beyond the borders of Fido-land. (He spammed several Usenet newsgroups with this malicious diatribe, too) Mr. Stokes is infamous for promulgating hatred and intolerance on certain religious echoes on Fidonet. He is one of those rare breed of fanatics called "Ruckmanites" who follow the xenophobic rantings of an ultra-fundamentalist evangelist from Florida named Peter Ruckman. They have come to be know, less affectionately, as "WRECKmanites" or "Ruckbots". Stokes even dared to post his Fidonet/Internet addresses. I wonder if he's prepared for the response to his worldwide "spam" post? I guess he's about to learn! If you'd care to protest his net.abuse, a polite letter to his sysop, net coordinator, and alternate net cooordinator would probably be in order. The way Fidonet works, he'll be burning up their resources, too, so they should probably be made aware of your feelings. Because of the topology of the fidonet.org domain, appropriate addresses for complaint, at your discretion, are as follows: His sysop: sysop@f1611.n375.z1.fidonet.org His Net coordinator: sysop@f0.n375.z1.fidonet.org His alternate Net coordinator: sysop@f1.n375.z1.fidonet.org The operative expression on Fidonet, as concerns grounds for disciplining an abusive user, is "excessively annoying behavior". You might wish to make mention of that phrase in any letters that you write. In any event, reading his mail should "keep him off the streets" (or info super-highway) for awhile... :)
