In the name of good holiday cheer, we'll give you a little peek into the old editorial e-mail box.
Name: Shawn Curtis
Subject: Letter to the Editor
Neighborhood: Fox Chase
I would just like to say how disgusted I am at your newspaper. I thought it was going to be a regular newspaper with some cool facts about Philly and stuff. Then I start flipping the pages and I see titles of articles with curse words, and then I go to the last pages of the newspaper where the ads are basically pornographic.What goes on in your mind when you allow trash like this into the hands of people? Your newspaper was free at the library, any kid could pick them up at anytime, and you have this trash, or should I say sinful content in it.
God has no pleasure it such things. Your creator must be very upset with you and the people who send you the ads.
(Revelation 21:8) "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."
All this drunkness, immorality and sin will be judged one day. Trust me, there is a hell. And you must be converted to Christ or face condemnation for all eternity. You'd do better if you would give your heart to God, stop serving Satan and make your newspaper a Christian newspaper. I shall pray for the salvation of your soul and the rest of Philadelphia as well.
A few points: Yes, Shawn, there is a hell. Some people say it's in or around Fox Chase. And I just checked with our creator, Bruce Schimmel, and he just gave us a big thumbs-up, so don't sweat it out for us, Shawn-o.
Oh, and Merry X-mas from all of us here at City Paper/The Clog/Meal Ticket/Critical Mass/Askadelphia, etc.
O dear Brian and Chris, did you not hear about the hell Auschwitz? I think you have enough Jewish people in Philadelphia, isn't it? The question is whether this is true. Yes, it is true. De 28:34,35 So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head. 59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance. 60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee. 61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed. The hell is more terrible. No place for human being - actually. Are blessed in my Lord Jesus Merry Christmas
uhm, but yes, this man is probably a bit of a nut. -cgw
Well he's right about one thing: Your paper is pretty damn terrible.
cp rocks, but, to be fair, have you ever been to fox chase? it's actually a very nice community. -cgw
Glad to hear of the thumbs-up for making it easy for perverts to patronize the trafficked sex slaves at asian massage parlors, as advertised in City Paper. They are not doing it by choice, ask any expert in human trafficking. Does CP need to earn advertising revenue from illegal businesses enslaving women?
