What I really lack is to be clear in my mind what I am to do, not what Iam to know, except in so far as a certain knowledge must precede every action. The thing is to understand myself, to see what God really wishes me to do: the thing is to find a truth which is true for me, to find the idea for which I can live and die. ... I certainly do not deny that I
still recognize an imperative of knowledge and that through it one can
work upon men, but it must be taken up into my life, and that is what I
now recognize as the most important thing.

I want to thank you for your prompt response to my call for assistance and I wish to let you know that you will not regret your decision. As I said before, I am Mr. Raymond Konwe I work as the Foreign Operations Manager with the Bank of Africa an international bank here in Republic of Benin. This US$10,500,000.00 (TEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) is part of the proceeds from gold and oil sold. This money is in an escrow account that belonging to no body in the bank.
This transaction is what I am well familiar with and it will not take more than 10 working days to complete. First, I will have to enter your name and particulars as the beneficiary of the fund and then send you a deposit certificate as evidence for the fund. After this you will then approach the bank officially by writing directly to the manager requesting to transfer the whole amount to your bank in your country after which I will come to meet with you for the sharing of the fund. The money will be shared 60% for me and 40% for you. No question will be asked you about the funds because everything is well secured by me. But first you will have to forward the following information to me for registration and processing;

1. FULL NAME
2. TELEPHONE NUMBERS/MOBILE/FAX:
3. DATE OF BIRTH:
4. YOUR OCCUPATION:
5. YOUR HOME ADDRESS:
6. MARITAL STATUS:

Please get back to me with the above information.

He soon gets the hang of it though.

It is highly significant and indeed almost a rule, that moral courage has its source in such identification through one's own sensitivity with suffering of one's fellow human beings.

Sir,

The nature of man tend to conform with his environment. Condusive environment tend to give way to humane living and relationship while hostle condition brings forth the animalistic nature of the humane human.

I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

The force battling man is far beyond human comprehension. However the fortunate ones tend to think the less fortunate are the architect of their present condition. But know it that the bright blue sky is beautiful for those that dwell in it. The terrifying night is beyond the power of those that dwell therein also. Be considerate.

I once bought a map. When I opened it all it said was, "You are here."

The path to ourselves always leads back to where we started whether you turn left or right.

the flesh came from the dust and to the dust it must return. The circular nature of the world is in all ramification.

This should be interesting. Wink

I love this.

Puppet-on-a-string lad.

This has taken an unexpected turn.

Me:

Dear Raymond,

I can see what can be seen. I can hear what can be heard. I can know
what can be known. But I cannot un-know the un-known.

(How can I help you?)

Regards.

He came back with this:

Lad:

Quote:

The bible said and I quote "Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. -- Romans 9:13." Do you know why God said that? Because Esau only saw what can be seen, hear what can be heard and know what can be known. Esau lived by sight and concern himself over what is physical. whereas Jecob see beyond what can be seen, knows beyond what can be known and hears beyond what can be heard; Jacob tapped into the spiritual.
The thing unseen is greater than the thing seen, the spiritual is greater than the physical. The spiritual controls the physical.
I am in the line of Jecob and i wish you step up to it.

(I am sorry for sending you a scam letter, Mt real name is Godfrey)

Godfrey

Now, where shall I go with this? Confused

Posted: Wed Jul 27, 2011 9:09 am

That was unexpected...

Maybe he needs to go on a safari of self-discovery. He must find the answer to whether anyone hears a cactus that falls in the desert

Posted: Thu Jul 28, 2011 10:41 am

Godfrey came out ...
Embarassed

Perhaps shove him back in before he actually causes any harm.
Perhaps ask him why he was scamming in the first place?

Get him working on the inside to shop other scammers. Could be quite an important find.

How about this:
Dear Godfrey,
Hildegard of Bingen once asked where the music to the unheard melody could be found. She was a woman of God who is remembered even today.
Like the modern attempts to reconstruct the music of Hildegard, I could make a thousand conjectures about your motives and intentions, but I think nothing is preferable to the direct truth.
So why did you send me a scam letter, and what were you planning to do?

Posted: Thu Jul 28, 2011 10:05 pm

I love a lad willing to play along. Plus a confession! Can't wait to see where this goes.

This idiot has started to make sense out of my philosophical drivel and seems to think I can see into his soul. Laughing

My name is Godfrey Vxxxxxx from Nigeria. I am married with three kids, i have Higher National Diploma in Accountancy and currently an undergraduate of Peace Studies and Conflict Resolution in the National Open University of Nigeria.
My problem is that I want an invitation letter to help me travel to your country. I want to come there so that I could get job (any job) so as to be able to take care of my family.
If there is a way you can help me with this, i promise to pay back all the expenses it coursed you as soon as i get over there and start working.
Thank you and God bless.

Godfrey

I've asked for a photo of him holding a sign as proof he is genuine before I will help him.

Quote:

I will do what you ask me; so what is it you want me to write, anything, I will.

Godfrey

He has completely unraveled.

Very Happy

You have a pet, how nice Very Happy

Play nicely now, no running with scissors in the house remember

Posted: Fri Jul 29, 2011 7:13 pm

I vote for having him write °I have completely unraveled°.
