================================================ Subject: Re: Hello Everyone From: ]\\\\[][G}{T§TÖ®]v[ To: Date: Fri 7 Jun 2002 21:00:51 -0400 ================================================ There's nothing wrong with being Christian. I wish some people would read a full post before attempting to reply. Creed, and it's members, are NOT Christian... and they have been saying this for several years now, to the very point of actually becoming annoyed by people assuming/thinking/saying they are, and just won't admit to it. I believe this is all covered on the FAQ page, as well as 80% of the older interviews (before the interviewers actually started to grab a clue). Please, in the future, before attempting to reply to me, read the full history of the conversation so that you can at least come across as knowing what is being discussed... that is why we include the original message in replies. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thielmann, Tammy" To: Sent: Friday, June 07, 2002 4:50 PM Subject: Re: Hello Everyone > I don't understand what the big deal is.
