the macdonalds of christist churches: how to start a christist cult and make money

sep 15th, 2008

i have always thought the best way to regulate these christist conversion businesses is to tax them on every converted head: pay $10,000 per head, and you can convert as many as you want. india's national debt will be immediately paid up.

here's the full kit on how to invent a new christist cult via a franchise, exactly like a macdonalds. just give these people money, and then you can make lots of it yourself by stealing land and 'harvesting' souls. sounds like the perfect business opportunity, exactly like how people pay bribes to become government officials (eg. customs, police, public works) where there's the chance to make money on the side.

this is where the valson thampu types get their PhDs.

also you can become a bishop or cardinal by just paying the right amounts. then of course the bbc and washpost will listen to you.

i got two of these mails, one from 'uma' and the other from 'aruna'. i have deleted almost all the contact info and the links from this. i don't want to give free advertising to these christism entrepreneurs.
