Re: Joao Reis pipes....

Dave....
I really don't want to go here with this topic. I merely stated that my
Christian beliefs dictate that I don't believe in Karma.
To state that "Those pipes were ill-gotten; ya sure ya wanna have one
around you?
You-know-who is always watching!" is really the kind of scripture
manipulating to justify an argument that I disdain.
Again regarding this or any situation, get ALL the facts then make your
decisions based on them if you so choose.
I personally will not be made to feel guilty by you or anyone regarding my
religion, ethics, morals or integrity. I try my best not to judge.

I really am impressed at how staunchly you defend Mr. Monjure in this whole
ordeal. You're loyalty to HIS ethics and integrity arte quite clear for
those who have been following your posts. I am glad you feel he is a stand
up guy. I do think you should go back to the VERY beginning of this debacle
from months ago and reread the sequence of events and how they unravelled.
If you keep an open mind, and read ALL the posts you just might come to a
different conclusion regarding the whole the thing. The woman was unrightly
''crucified" on this forum by many. Many who have since gone back and
publicly (here on ASP) and privately to apologize to her. There's more to
the story than most people know. Again check facts.
I always welcome words from the "Good Book" as you put it but please don't
throw scripture at me from the Bible in an attempt to scare me or stop me or
guilt me into doing or not doing something.

Respectfully,
Mario

Mario:

I respect your Christian beliefs. Consider the following from the Good
Book:

Job 20:10 (Whole Chapter)
The poor will oppress his children, and his hands will give back his
[ill-gotten] wealth.

Job 20:15 (Whole Chapter)
He has swallowed down [his ill-gotten] riches, and he shall vomit them
up again; God will cast them out of his belly.

Job 20:16 (Whole Chapter)
He shall suck the poison of asps [which ill-gotten wealth contains];
the viper's tongue shall slay him.
