2. Purple Jesus Prayer Rug
Purple Jesus Prayer Rug



That's not a headline, it's the creepiest junk mailer I have ever received. This was just too bizarre and too hilariously creepy not to share.

I tend to get quite a bit of church and religion-related direct mail; in part because of my job and in part because I'm on the membership rolls of several right-wing organizations I like to keep an eye one. Most of it falls into two categories: "give us money to defeat the nefarious plans of the secular humanist neo-pagans," and "give us money to save the children/minister to heathens."

I knew this one was special the minute I picked up the envelope, which was covered with heavy black-inked, red-underlined letters, and read something like a bottle of Dr. Bronner's soap, with lots of red underlining and bold text for emphasis.

Inside was a letter, headed: "Dear someone connected with this address," and described all the wonderful, miraculous things that would happen if I utilized the "Bible, Faith, Church Prayer Rug" enclosed. I was directed to perform a little ritual with the enclosed "Holy Ghost, Bible Prayer Rug:"

Preachers know that there's a sucker born every minute and the GOP, knows it only too well too!
