Theos-Talk Archives (May 2000 Message tt00013)

I almost sent this message out to alot of important people but cancelled at
the last moment because the public health service has the responsibility to
get the word our in such matters it seems to me.  I must say that I would
not have thought to check the source.  I would have been fooled.  I'm glad
for this experience as it reminds me to confirm that that something of this
nature is valid.  It is hard to believe that someone would play a hoax like
this.  I hope the person is prosecuted.

To the person that passed it on.  It is very understandable. The purpose of
a hoax is to fool us.  And we all live and swim in this illusion, called the
appearance of life, cause we're here to learn about illusions and how deeply
one can be fooled.
