Dear MRFF & Mr. Weinstein

Just a simple note. You keep slapping Gods face and glorifying yourself through your own fallible thoughts and actions you will pay the price.

God ill not be mocked, and you are a deceiver of men and your all will be accounted for.

Thank you

Mr. Hawkins,

Have we not heard from you before? You strike a familiar tone.

Since Mr. Weinstein and the MRFF staff are busy protecting the religious freedom of the women and men in our armed forces, allow me to acknowledge the receipt of your ‘simple note’ and affirm agreement that it is indeed simple.

I’m unaware of Mr. Weinstein’s having slapped anyone’s face, so I’ll assume you’re suggesting that he and the MRFF are somehow guilty of insulting the deity for whom you presume to speak. Like others who have sent angry, anxious and threatening messages, you betray ignorance by ascribing to us methods and intentions that are not and never have been part of our mission, our actions or our communications.

Since you chose to mention fallibility, let me suggest you examine the beliefs that have generated this “simple note” and consider the possibility that your own thoughts may be the ones based on faulty thinking, if in fact there is thought behind your contacting us.

You suggest we “will pay the price.” The only “price” we pay, let me make clear, is having to suffer the ignorant and bigoted attacks and criticism we receive from foolish people who have somehow allowed themselves to be persuaded that their own belief system is the one and only proper belief system and that anyone who allows for another – for example belief in a loving Jesus, or a merciful Allah, or a god of nature, or no god at all – is blaspheming.

So, to be clear, the only deceiving going on is the ranting, raving, lying and scheming by those with a fundamentalist, dominionist agenda and the frightened fools and bigots who spread their nonsense. I trust, once you study the issue a bit and read our mission statement, you will excuse yourself from that crowd.

Best,

Mike Farrell
