My EMail Stalker Strikes Again.

[Phox]

Roger, your crazies are the best. 

[Triple Zero]

Just the first email is actually rather sad--if I were to take it at face value--the second one, with him watching you changes all that of course.

Once saw a documentary about Catholics getting completely screwed in their upbringing with the "masturbation = YOU GO TO HELL (and makes you gay, which also = GO TO HELL)", sometimes the combination of how it's taught plus some persons REALLY believe it and HELL is the most terrible place, it means you lose for eternity, and then I dunno some people can't help themselves and masturbate, and they get completely consumed by guilt and, well either they figure out at younger age that the Church is bullshit, or that in fact the trick to being a young male Catholic is that it's okay to masturbate as long as you don't tell anyone because EVEN JESUS DID IT (why do you think they never wrote about the first 30 years of his life? it's because those thin Bible pages are impossible to tear apart if you get spunk on them) --

or they go through life, far into adulthood, guilt tripping them until their minds are crippled, believing masturbation is a sin and they go to HELL, maybe realize at some age how it was all a lie, or maybe not, either way then they're fucked up, and THAT is Hell, and it was not masturbation but the Church that put them there.

Regardless this guy is crazy. Either he's taking the piss, or he really is a sad nutcase like the above, but you can't help him either way.

Maybe he thinks "The Good Reverend" refers to a Catholic reverend?

That's not common parlance in the Catholic Church though, or at least not that I'm aware of. Catholic clergy are generally called "Father" , maybe "Bishop" or "Cardinal", or "Monsignor" (if they are special enough to get rewards and honorifics from the Pope or somesuch, not quite sure what that signifies, honestly). I am not sure I've ever heard a Catholic priest referred to as "Reverend" before. It's possible, but... weird.

In regards to the rest of your post, you pretty much hit the nail on the head there, but for a lot of people, it's not just masturbation. "Good ol' Catholic guilt" is a pretty serious problem for a lot of folks, and there ain't nothing "good" about it.

Ph0X, the Catholic Church is kind of big, spread out over many continents, cultures and languages.

Still Trip, titles like the Good and Very Reverend are far more Anglican than Catholic.

Incidentally, if you put "good reverend" into Google, it autocompletes for "good reverend roger" on the second choice.

Yes, that's true. Like I said, it's possible. And actually, thinking it over, I have seen "The Reverend Father" written before. *shrug*. That said, given this person's apparent knowledge of Roger, I'd like to believe he wouldn't be so foolish as to believe Roger as anything short of a heretical, defrocked priest.

Confirmed. Hilarious.

I was also thinking Khore.  The punctuation and clumsy grammar matches up okay.

Right, but within the English language, reverend would be used so rarely for a priest that it becomes almost non-existent. I imagine that it's mostly for official purposes, as in, the title that is conferred onto them by the state, or in proper address in a letter- which would then be used as some sort of descriptor for their rank or whatever. Priests are almost always referred to and addressed in speech as Father, and maybe comically as Padre. "Reverend" and "Minister" immediately strike a Catholic ear as referring to Protestant clergy.

I'd bake you a cake with a file in it.

While they're freaking over that, Richter, Dimo, and EoC will lead the assault, while the rest of the NESpag Rescue Squad smuggle you out in a bad wig and a mumu.

Just to go to the other end of things, fuck man, how many of these things do you get? I know it's the internet and all, but it's gotta reach a creepy factor after a while - at least with the persistent ones. I mean, every one's a harmless weirdo until, well, they're not. Working at a law office on a busy road, I get my fair share of weirdos of varying degrees of crazy, most of which are pretty harmless seeming, but a recent conversation with one client was creepy enough to make me feel threatened, putting the rest of it in perspective.

Meh, I know it's the internet, you can handle yourself and most of them are probably harmless and/or incapable weirdos, but thinking about it, it can be pretty disturbing
