And there was no chain letter. WHAT IS wrong with a thank you for an gift. Dont you say thanks when someone gives you something.

I used to think that the Gospel was this one time event…it saved me around 5th grade, and I no longer need it, that it belonged on the timeline of events in my life, alone with basketball games and girlfriends.  That I need to get into deeper, heavier things.  While in a way – yes, that is true .  However, we cannot forget or move from the Gospel, the central message of the Bible.  Paul clearly wants to teach the Gospel.  And he illustrates the necessity for the presence of the Gospel, they heard it (I preached to you), they got saved (you received), they are Christians (stand), their eternal destiny is secure (saved).   He shows how dependent our lives are on the Gospel.

I'd taken some action against B7 months ago, but only managed to terminate some forums and alert law enforcement, but was never certain if they'd listened. Here a few links to legal precedents, for the gifting nuts who didn't see the damage coming, to help them understand the WHY of B-7's illegality. "Gift" status in the eyes of the law is neutralized when there is a clear profit motive or lack of donative intent. Read http://www.vid.uscourts.gov/territorial/06sc0016.pdf for why your "gifting statements" are worthless in court, and read post #87 in the thread http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?t=40980&page=3 regarding profit motive and gifting. Rev. Rick is hardly the first religious leader to get burned in such schemes in Texas. Read http://bulk.resource.org/courts.gov/states/Tex.App.14/83666.html and read the case of another such man who fought tooth and nail, only to go to Hell because, in the end, he truly was in the wrong. Despite the "biblical" name and trappings, it wasn't Christian. Read PianoLady's surprisingly eloquent essay about another, falsely-Christian gifting program and how it failed to even come close to standards. http://www.moneymakergroup.com/lofiversion/index.php/t197138.html Here's a BBC report about a related scheme that wrecked havoc in the UK, http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/static/audio_video/programmes/inside_money/transcripts/pyramid.txt , and the legal response to that damage a few years later, http://www.opsi.gov.uk/Acts/acts2005/ukpga_20050019_en_4#pt3-pb3-l1g43 . As you can see, England's reaction was such that merely inviting someone to a gifting program can result in the inviter being imprisoned for nearly a year. Ah, good.
