When I have not been shocked into a non-response, my response has usually been to try and educate the individual involved, since generally speaking the vitriol is based in ignorance. In this case, given that the individual is 81, this might be best ignored, unless it turns into a bigger issue than the one phone message.Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17015991521944135592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123924743583572207.post-37363576902757938382012-04-09T17:51:03.871-04:002012-04-09T17:51:03.871-04:00I should say by the way, that in Nebraska the occu...I should say by the way, that in Nebraska the occurence of the calls never seemed to be connected to any particular time of year. More likely they were connected to times people forgot to take their medication.SciFi Rabbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06744444184717280964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123924743583572207.post-45101756141990767952012-04-09T16:38:01.286-04:002012-04-09T16:38:01.286-04:00I still love the response one of my congregants al...I still love the response one of my congregants always used when approached by Christian missionaries - "I'm not interested in any of these new fangled religions!"

I developed the response over time that was always something like, "you're going to hell." To which I responded, "Well if you're going to be in heaven, that would be hell for me, so I might as well go to hell."<br />It is amazing how I learned to be such a fast runner.Rabbi Sharffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17521050058207946363noreply@blogger.com
