Grope's Bleat

Dear Sir,

To Mr "Hegehog" I say PHTHWH! Never was such a grubby, disease ridden creature considered by the almighty as an adequate manifestation of his glorious being. Wee Arthur's lapses in literary style indicate his being in the grips of a horrid perversion - the hedgehog fetish; and we all know that only sheep fetishists (such as myself) and their objects can possibly enter the kingdom of heaven. Or do we know this? Has my message to the world gone unheeded? Everywhere I go I still see sheep persecuted and unloved. Maybe a few more facts are necessary to convince you snivelling non-believers.

What is the divine colour? White. Everywhere God appears in the bible he is bathed in light, very bright or generally white. White is the symbol of purity and peace, and we all know how pure and peaceful God initially intended the world to be. So then - what animals are white. Creatures such as polar bears are white due to economic necessity, but only the sheep is white for no apparent reason. The actual reason is divinity. If they appear a dirty off-white or brown in the fields it is only because people refuse to clean them. I can tell you all there'll be great waitings and gnashing of teeth in the farming community when the great holy acceptance list comes out.

And you, Peter Beach, you evil lamb strangling person, I can understand why you sought to cover up your guilt by tittling my previous letter "Exosss Groops" knowing full well that oving divinity was the real subject. You see, I know that you run sheep in your back yard. Your only chance to avoid arch goatery is to resign, repent, and flee the country now!!!!

Finally, to this Hedgehog character I say If you are serious indeed if you are anything at all - any claim to hedgehog perfection must be supported by biblical evidence, because only through the bible can man ever understand God. And as for Exosss Groops, official corruption and stupidity has priced them out of the marker. Good night.
