free gift in todays paper
i thought it was a mini box of cereal at first, but it was a Pgh edition of the New Testament.
there were bios of pgh clergy in there.In the bio for an AME minister, the writer called Alleghey county the murder capital of the US of A in 1993, with 118 murders out of a population of 1.3 mill.And credited the minister for getting us out of first place with his youth work.
there is a better chance of the Stillers losing to the nuOilers than that statement being true

I don't bet on football, but I'm sure you've covered lots of bets on this one, eh?

Why would this annoy you so much?peacock2121 wrote:I'd cancel the paper.
That is how pissed I'd be to be getting a bible when I didn't ask for one.
I'd also be torn, as I would never throw out a bible.
That would really piss me off.
Really?

I didn't ask for one to come into my home. I am now stuck with what to do with it - I now have a problem. I would never throw away a bible, like I would throw away a catalogue.

I gotta agree with Cal here - If someone wanted to pay the paper to distrubute these why get your nose out of joint. I'd throw in the goodwill box and move on. There is alot of extraneous crap in Sunday papers.TheCalvinator24 wrote:Why would this annoy you so much?peacock2121 wrote:I'd cancel the paper.

they also send promotiomal items like soap and razors and coffee.
The bible promotes a way of living(though many christian types i know skip the inconvenient parts).
the paper is a biness.They got paid to distribute the bible.

I would have fired them years ago if they sent me crap (or bibles) I didn't ask for.
I do think circulars are okay. I like the circulars.

you can choose to be ignorant or informed
the facist paper does advertise itself as a home delivery service of things other than news.The real paper may be moving it that direction as well.
would it make you less annoyed if the bible were separted from the paper's bag?

wtf does this have to do with the conversation?

Then if I paid for that paper, I would know what I was buying - a home delivery service that delivers things I didn't necessarily order.

No - this isn't about things touching each other - it's about something that I would not just throw away that comes to my house.
Wonder what the response would be if they delivered condoms.
