How kind of you, (name withheld), And let me suggest something in return: Education.
If you knew what you were talking about it would be less embarrassing foryou. But if you’re content to remain stupid, that’s certainly your right.

Dear (name withheld):
I have been asked by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation to respond to your recent email. You do not indicate in your sad and shallow email whether you are a military veteran, so I will make the assumption that you are not one. The MRFF exists to protect the religious liberties of those who serve our country in uniform. Members of the military services come to MRFF for assistance because their right to believe as they choose and to appropriately express those beliefs are being challenged or abridged, usually by someone in their military chain of command. MRFF does its best to assist those servicemembers, and it is notably successful in doing so.
MRFF also takes on the more general problem of government—usually meaning the military—violations of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. I won’t go into great detail about this amendment, except to say that the first part of it forbids the U.S. Government from mingling in the religious realm. This has been the law of the land since that amendment was ratified in 1791. Here’s what President Thomas Jefferson, who knew the men who drafted this amendment and saw it through to passage in the Congress, said about it in a letter to the Baptists of Danbury, Conn., in January 1802:
“I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people [that is, the First Amendment] which declared that their legislature should ‘make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’ thus building a wall of separation between Church & State.”
You might want to read this carefully, Mr. Hendrix. The MRFF exists to defend and protect that wall of separation between church and state, and sadly for you, Mr. Weinstein, MRFF’s founder and president, is not leaving us any time soon.

(name withheld) — if that is indeed your name; so many like you hide behind an alias — you need desperately to find a life other than one where you wish others to kill themselves. Christ would find you sad, lost and generally deranged. Apparently too you are jealous of Mr. Weinstein’s popularity. But wishing death on others is a bizarre way to gain your own.
I strongly recommend you consult a specialist in mental disorders and ask for help before you succumb to the very fate you wish upon others. Such a fate seems inevitable for those as disturbed as you appear to be. In other more simpler words, you need help!

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation represents, when requested, the religious freedom rights of military families who do not want religious wreaths placed on the graves of their deceased military veterans without permission. We do so because we respect their wishes & the religious group responsible for the religious wreaths does not.
