Crystal Cathedral pastor Robert Schuller got a rude awakening when he tried to join Twitter: someone else had already stolen his identity online and had been posing as him, gaining over 1,000 followers.
He got the impostor booted off and claimed his identity.
A Tunisian pilot was convicted by a court for praying instead of taking emergency measures when crash landing his plane, killing 16 aboard.
So, always use discretion when deciding when to pray!
Executives of AIG, the insurance company now firmly attached to the government teat, are in fear of their lives with death threats.
Now threatening someone with harm is wrong. Period. However I am not particularly sympathetic to this crew and I think it will serve as something to sober them up. Consider it a wakeup call. Yes, the American people are ticked, as well as you could expect when you ask for and receive a large sum of money to bail you out because you mismanaged funds and then you blow some of the money on large bonuses for yourselves. It should not surprise you that that will tick lots of taxpayers off, especially when you live a lavish lifestyle while the people who are funding you suffer. I've never had a bonus that wasn't tied in some way to my performance or the performance of the company. You should have predicted this.
Also I will note that empty death threats are fairly routine in situations like this. While you certainly need to be careful and prudent, I think the likelihood that someone will actually carry them out approaches zero.
The scary thing is that this resembles situations when societies have fallen and lawless mobs have gone after the decadent rich.
