We have a winner!
Reality Chuck you have just won the intarweb! Congrats!
Just popped in to say I got one of these on my door today. I thought of the SDMB.

I’d just like to say I’m planning on going as the Whore of Babylon for Halloween. So anyone who thinks she’s hot is invited over. [/hijack]
(Oh and if anyone has any saint blood bring it with you)
Crikey, we got one today, too. It was stuck jauntily in the postbox when I arrived home from work. I was puzzled, trying to remember where that phrase about “False Religion” came from that it seemed familiar. The pamphlet was quickly dispatched to the handy-dandy blue box, to be recycled come next Tuesday.
It sounds like a serious drive, eh? Now I, too, am part of the global false religion-eradication campaign.
That would not make a good band name.
Well, feck. That’s me out of a job, then.
Got mine today and remembered this thread; I’ll agree that TWoB is indeed teh hawt (I’d rather be at that party than join the multicultural milquetoasts on the back page.) In fact, if her multi-cranial steed there has problems, I volunteer to make her devastated and naked and eat up her fleshy parts. 
I note that they quote liberally from the bible, but don’t cover anywhere why the bible is the One True Book, and not any other religious text. I get the feeling they were going to try, but the only thing that seems to be left of that is the hilarious second paragraph, where Jesus Christ is referred to as “A widely respected religious figure”. :smack:
Cool deal…but where 'zactly is “3000 miles from home”? Do you know of a druid ring nearby? If you happen to be unfamiliar with Norrath, druid rings look very much like the monument called Stonehenge on Earth, and allow teleportation thereto…
Since my apartment is in the back rooms of a house, I never get missionaries knocking at my door, but I finally got to read the tract in question when my parents (knowing of my interest in all kinds of esoterica) enclosed two copies in the last Priority Mail envelope of goodies they sent me. So if anyone wants to read of the impending demise of False Religion, you can e-mail me (contact info is in my profile), and I’ll send the Harlot and her seven-headed feline to your home or P.O. box!
A quote like that, in my mind, is followed by, “Who is with us in our studio tonight to field phone calls…”
I got one last week (see my relatively tame Pit thread. I heard they’re on an annual pledge drive, and are beating the strerets pretty hard. According to a few scattered sources, they wanted to get Jerry Lewis to host a telethon, but he’s already damned to hell/France.
Hey, about this whore of Babylon, is she wearing anything? According to those same few scattered sources, I heard Tawny Kitaen is actually the whore, but it’s not publicly recognized. Apparently, she damn near blew her cover doin’ Warrant and Motley Crue videos back in th’ day. The whorin’ part came when she did The New WKRP in Cincinnati.
Tripler
I have inside sources from the CIA.
I was given one of those tracts yesterday. Definitely JW.
False religion is apparently being given a pass here in Albuquerque. I feel so…so damned!
Before I realized we were talking about JW’s (who I haven’t really encountered at all, though we do have a roving band of nicely-dressed Mormons who use the library I work in to send and recieve emails once a month or so), I thought these were Chick Tracts, and was thus goign to respond with something along the lines of:
"<i>Subtle</i> :dubious: "
But, alas, nevermind.
NJ. Actually more like 3500 miles from the UK where I want to be. (And 3500 miles from Stonehenge.) I don’t think NJ has any druid circles, we mostly have traffic circles.
Is it International Defeat False Religion Week or something? I got a JW leaflet stuck under the door a few days ago on exactly the same subject. I didn’t throw it in the bin; I did the right thing and put it into the recycling.
How so?
I got one a few weeks back. All I gotta say is I definitely want my own 3-headed political cat-beast thing. Way cooler than a pony, IMO.
Got mine a couple of days ago; it had been so far between the door and the jamb that just the edge was showing from outside. It went directly from there to the paper shredder. The only good thing is that since I don’t believe there is any such thing as a ‘true’ religion the loss of all the ‘false’ ones means pretty soon all religion will be a thing of the past. Why am I reminded of the Simpsons episode where they imagine a world without lawyers and everybody is singing and dancing and just enjoying life?
You wanna compromise? How about a three headed political pony-cat thing?
Casa del Briston, moments ago:
A very nice little girl just came to my door (with grandma smiling from behind a nearby tree).
“I’d like to give you this pamphlet on how the end of false religion is near”, she said sweetly.
My eyes lit up…“Oooo, thank you! We we’re just making fun of this very pamphlet on the internet…I was hoping I’d get one. Wait, this is the right one, isn’t it? <opens leaflet> Yup! There’s the Whore of Babylon, as promised. Thank you very much!”
