Last year I stupidly answered an ad for St. Matthew's Church and sent them $5. I then realized my mistake, but after a dozen written requests to be removed from their mailing list got no response except more letters, I tried another route.  

I wrote a very respectful, but firm letter saying that if they did not remove me from their mailing list, I was going to sue them in Small Claims Court in Tulsa for harassment, annoyance, mental cruelty, etc.  And I indicated that I had sent a copy of this letter to my lawyer.  

To my amazement, the letters stopped!

Then I heard from someone that they too had been unable to get off the mailing list and had taken some revenge.  They made a several hundred photocopies the return postage-paid envelope, cut & pasted them together and mailed these fakes from several surrounding towns.  They even sent several dozen to friends in other cities!  Wow, what a great idea!!  If everyone did that, even just 5-10.....hm...yes, they said it took a few hours of cutting and pasting, but what sweet revenge!

A church, it's members and it's symbols fit exactly what the main definitions of a "cult" is.

Cult: –noun
1. a particular system of religious worship, esp. with reference to its rites and ceremonies.
2. an instance of great veneration of a person, ideal, or thing, esp. as manifested by a body of admirers.
3. the object of such devotion.
4. a group or sect bound together by veneration of the same thing, person, ideal, etc.
5. Sociology. a group having a sacred ideology and a set of rites centering around their sacred symbols.


But, I don't understand what your report is about..or the rip off. Is your only complaint that they won't take you off the mailing list..or were they supposed to send you something for the 5 dollars and it never came?

If it is only regarding the mailings..I don't know if mental cruelty applies. Anyhow if this so called church has done anything wrong, the idea with sending them all those envelopes is very funny and I hope it annoys them to no end.
