I get comments

This blog is hardly the most popular on the planet. By my last check I had a less than 100 semi-regular readers, plus the occasional person who drops by from a google search or a a random link. However that doesn’t stop crazy people finding me and commenting on the blog. Luckily Disqus catches most of the crazy (a dozen of so comments each week).

However as has been done by PZ Myers many times, (and I’m sure by many others who get insane people commenting on their blog) I’d like to highlight one of the funnier comments that I’ve seen.

You know, I dont think you have the right to christicise(geddet?! ha) jesus. After all he has done for you and the world. You wouldnt even exist if it wasnt for him! Your links point to anti jesus sentiment, which makes me want to cry, cruuuhiiieeeeeeee. He loves you chris, rearry wuvs you! Why would you reject him? He made apples(not just even snake ones, good ones too), cinemas, chocolate, he made marks and spencer, he made dogs and cats and kanji, and he even made computers! g0d pwnz konpew73rz. If you are angry at the world, you know whos fault that is, dont you? you know… the big “S”…. he made war, false gods and microsoft. Come back into the fold chris, he’ll take you back, be with us sheeple in gods wonderful uberherd. Ill hug you if you do, hugs are good, like the free ones on grafton street only without the awkwardness.

It may be a mistake, but I don’t give a lot of my time and attention to reading the spam that I get and so it took be almost 2 years to actually read this particular comment that was left on my welcome post. When I finally did read it last week it made me chuckle. So far all the spammy comments that have been left here have been about porn, penis enlargement and all natural bullshit. This was the first and only one thus far which has been about trying to sell Jesus. From looking at the date it was probably the very first comment ever on the blog.

I was going to write a criticism of this comment examining the inherent logical fallacies, misdirections and various attempts to appeal to my youth by being “cool” and “hip”. But I’ve decided to just leave it as it stands as a funny, albeit slightly weird, conversion attempt, which was probably the first ever comment on this blog.
