I sent her this reply to the email: “This is an inappropriate email to send for an eBay transaction, especially through private email. Please refrain from foisting your beliefs on others in this manner. It is pushy and unwelcome. I have contacted eBay about this intrusive seller behavior.” Sincerely, _It’s Not Rocket Surgery!_" ---

This reply shows that there is a lack of spirituality in your life. As the official SDMB\* religious converter, I would urge you to consider saving your immortal soul, especially at this time of year. There are also many tax benefits. Eternal Love, Glee \*Lies! All Lies! :smack: ---
