The Internet has something for everyone. For instance, I am sitting here with Ryan playing Scrabble with a web site of two and three letter scrabble words on the screen. And yes, I am letting him look at it as well. Meanwhile I get a spam email for ChristianDebtRemovers.Org. Here is some of their info:
"ChristianDebtRemovers.org can make a difference in your life by lifting the financial burden that has come over millions of Americans across the country."
It's a standard consolidate all your loans and bills in to one monthly payment scheme. Actually scam is more appropriate as it is rarely the best way to get ouf of debt. I was looking for the Christian angle/message and notice at the bottom they say:
"Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another... Romans 13:8"
No doubt in their version of the bible they have inserted "and the easy monthly payments to ChristianDebtRemovers.Org". Notice the use of .org which implies a not-for-profit organisation. Elsewhere they have:
"The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender... Proverbs 22:7"
I could go on about the facts of all this but I'll leave you with one last fact: there is no phone number, registered company name, telephone number or address on the website.
Bastards.

The lack of contact details would hint at communication by prayer, would it not?
