	Deception in the Name of God (courtesy of Peter Popoff)
		Peter Popoff is guilty of something known as the "personalized" letter scam (a form of mail fraud).
		He makes people believe that he is writing to them personally when in fact it is the work of a computer used by his staff who insert a person's info into the text of a pre-written letter (using the person's name, address and prayer request).
		Indeed, if Popoff has no shame or no guilt knowing that he has maligned the name of God and damaged and ruined lives throughout the world the case can be made that he has probably already crossed over into the unpardonable sin (but no one is unredeemable).
