I had a very odd (bordering on shocking) email exchange with some whacko from church yesterday. For months he's been sending out this spam website,to a list of email addresses that he got from the church, which were only given out for church related business, not spam bullshit. I finally got tired of them yesterday and asked to be removed from his lists, he didn't like that, not one bit.
(I'm in blue, he's red)
At this point I really wasn't sure if this was a threat. The way he worded it, and the fact that what I was asking was so simple/stupid, kinda made me think he just a problem expressing himself properly. So I asked for clarification....
I have never spoken to this person. I have no idea how he knows me or has generated this concept in his head of what I'm like. Ive been going to church less and less for the last year and honestly haven't had any interest in meeting the people there. I've kept to myself and have (honestly) just wanted to be left alone. I'm there to support my wife and family, and that's been my only reason to go. However, apparently people at church have been talking about me behind my back and have labeled me as "a little punk from Utah who thinks you know everything", which quite frankly angers me more than this conversation possibly could have.
Here he loses his mind because I'm apparently unaware of who he is and his sacrifices for the church.
I find it funny that he signs most his messages with "take care" after threatening physical conflict over an email exchange. I haven't responded to him since then because Kiwi asked me not to.

Please remove me from your address book entirely so I don't receive these spam messages anymore.
Thanks,

Is it to much to just delete it? J.

Yes, it is too much to "just delete it".
I realize that you got my email address for church use, but I'd appreciate it if you would just remove me from your address book. Every time your PC sends out a spam message it releases my personal email address to the internet, ever increasing the likelihood that I'll get more spam messages from outside senders. Obviously I would like to avoid having this happen as much as possible.
Thanks.

Whatever it isn't going to hurt you in the slightest.. Are you that anal about this type of stuff? If so why don't I teach you a few things? The first would be to hand you your butt back to you. It happens so just get over it.

I'm sorry, perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but did you just threaten me because I asked you to remove me from your address book?
From James to Kyle
Yes I did do you need your butt kicked because I could certainly do it. Your are a little punk from Utah who thinks you know everything. You don't know anything about much but I'm willing to teach you a few things. It isn't that big of a deal who cares how much your email address gets out on the internet oh you must.. Ha.

James,
I have no idea who are you. I could not pick you out of a line-up. However, you've apparently generated some baseless animosity towards me which I have no interest in dealing with, so I'm just going to go ahead and forward this email chain to the Bishop and let him sort it out.
Grow up.

Whatever if you need me to show you I am i'll be right over.. Are you that self centered that you don't even know who I am? Wow go ahead and send whatever you want to whoever you want. The bishop has more important things to deal with. Of the 500 or so addresses in my computer you are the only cry baby to ask to be removed you tell me what the problem is.
Kyle, if you did your calling and served a little in the church you would surely know who I am I am at most of the moves my family and I are cleaning the chapel I go to the storehouse and D I maybe you should sign up for some of these service projects then you would know who I am. Then if you signed up I wouldn't have too.. I know people are busy but that is awefyl that you can't put my name with my face.. How long have you been in the ward? Take Care.
