The Phone Number Of The Beast
"It's the connotation. Nobody wants to be part of the mark of the beast," lamented Carlene Light, an office worker at Kentucky Mountain Bible College, after the college was assigned the telephone prefix of 666. Speak for yourself, Carlene! I would gladly sell my soul to obtain what you have been given free of charge. Y'all need to quit your bitchin', and realise the grass is currently greenest on your side. Or something.
In other religion news, not only has the Pope issued a biting condemnation of the proposed Iraq war, saying it would be a "defeat for humanity"; but he's also called together his homeys, and now 38 leaders of major world religions have "appealed to believers in all faiths to work to avert a conflict in Iraq."
So, those of you who have entrusted your fate to a divine power have now been issued an assignment by His/Her/Its divinely chosen representatives: work to avert a conflict in Iraq. In other words, if you believe in god, but you're not protesting the upcoming war, you're going to Hell. Now, that should be incentive enough, n'est pas?
