Preying on Fanaticism...

A recent email brought a smile to my face. The subject was "Gay activists want to take away the conservative Christian Vote!!!". The body went on to describe in great detail the "gay conspiracy" to destroy the institute of marriage. There were allegations against "homosexual friendly democrats" saying that they are working to disenfranchise the conservative Christian voters. The email then went on about measures to fight the conspiracy, including a website to go to the place a donation and a link to other sites dedicated to fostering a resistance to the "gay agenda".

This email was rife with gay bashing and fear mongering, accusing the gay community as being at odds with the god fearing Christians. The target of this email was the fanatic conservative Christians.

My anti-virus software warned me that there was a potential malicious script embedded in the message. I did a more comprehensive scan that showed that the script worked to automatically download a worm from some .dk (Denmark) website.

This was when the smile came to my lips. These hate filled, fanatics are being preyed upon by those using the convictions of these narrow minded buffoons to spread viruses and collect "donations". This is the electronic retribution for being so full of self-pride and showing such contempt for others.

This angle of attack is great because these fanatics are often the most gullible, more so than prescription drug junkies or porn addicts. These online predators are likely to feast on those wicked and despicable pharisees...

God's work is often done by the devil...
