"In 1996 God told me to preach the Gospel on cable television in Tucson, Arizona."
I love that this author thought that belonged in her book description; not her about the author, but her book description. Would you buy a book called BIRTH CONTROLS IS SINFUL IN THE CHRISTIAN MARRIAGES and also ROBBING GOD OF PRIESTHOOD CHILDREN!!? I kind of love that we live in a world where such a book exists and is apparently written in all caps, and someone on Amazon tagged it 'caplocks are evil.' I really do love it. Also, it costs $135! And someone is selling a used copy, and the description says it was signed by God himself (I can only assume they are making fun of the author, because in her description of her book, she writes that it is an holy-spirit authored tome. Except in all caps, of course.). I think it should be added to all Amazon baby and wedding registries, because I just noticed those buttons and it made me giggle.

That woman is clearly insane. Why would she put a picture of herself that looks like it was taken in 1981 on the cover? The user reviews are very entertaining. I like how 49% of people that view this item ultimately purchase Watchmen, and 13% purchase Batman. Like those items have anything to do with this book. Why is this book $135, did it only sell like 4 copies? Did the woman print and bind it herself?
I like how one of the related items to this book is a book called "The Magic Fart".
Yeah, I think the ultimate knowledge we gain here is that Amazon is truly a treasure trove of fun. Also, perhaps the holy spirit told her that cameras steal pieces of your soul,so the last picture she allowed to be taken of herself was in 1981...
In the book description, she also said that the computer dictators may have changed the holy spirit's words in the book. If the book isn't what she wrote, why does she want us to buy it and trust it as being from the holy spirit?
I guess she thinks even a somewhat altered message from the holy spirit is better than none? She should send a copy to the Duggars so they can talk about it on their show.
I added a couple of customer images for this book on Amazon. See if you can guess which ones are mine?
Oh Dave! I love you. You're my favorite older brother; don't let the computer dictators get you down. The only thing that could make those funnier would be if you used the versions that you made with Luke's face. You use your work time in such wonderful ways.
