Subject: anti-Jeff flyers in hotel

While I was DJ'ing last night at a nice Phoenix hotel here, someone was putting flyers in the bathrooms and in the lobby. These anonymous flyers were tri-folded. The sides were like this:
*************************
Years of Persecution

Attention Christian Singles

Also Celebrating.......

on the other side:

A Warning
to Christian Singles

Your religious freedom is in jeopardy
Jeff Jacobsen, Your DJ, is a known
persecutor of religions, and religious freedom

WILL YOUR CHURCH BE NEXT?
****************************

So after somebody told me about the flyers I went and gathered them up. No idea who put them out, but I have an idea that the church of Scientology was involved. :)
Strangely though, I've never persecuted a religion. My bachelor's degree is in Religious Studies. I'm a Christian. I've never tried to stop anyone from practicing their religion. I've only tried to get certain religious groups to stop lying, killing, and things like that, and this only through peaceful legal means. So, the flyer is libelous.

No, not at all. And what I love the most is that ~you believe what you just wrote~.

Yes. You are one Jesus Loving Guy, and it shows.

You have been "on the attack" for over a decade. You SELECT whatever is recent and best suits your purposes to *justify* your actions.

Your statement is a lie. You HAVE done everything you could to attack and stop Scientology. That you have failed completely (except to cause trouble here and there) does not mean you have not tried.

The fact that you have not promoted violence does not change - one bit - what your intentions have been. I had nothing to do with the flyer, but do not disagree with a word of it.

This "peaceful legal means" - here - is my response.
