 		TheUnraveling email
Earlier today, I recieved an email from the unraveling. Contained in the email was a reference to an image stored elsewhere, containing a message refering to a biblical quote, and the message "DO NOT DELETE THIS EMAIL - CHECK IT AGAIN IN A FEW HOURS". (The subject was "It\'s all unraveling", if anyone can get meaning out of that beyond the obvious.) The message has since changed, so I don't have the exact text, but it was composed of Mark 12:18-12:24, apparantly from the KJV according to catherwood. Here's a copy with slightly different wording I found online.

Quote:
And some Sadducees came to Him, and began questioning Him, saying, 'Teacher, Moses wrote for us a law that if a man's brother dies, and leaves behind a wife, and leaves no child, his brother should take the wife, and raise up offspring to his brother. There were seven brothers; and the first one took a wife, and died, leaving no offspring. And the second one took her, and died, leaving behind no offspring; and the third likewise; and so all seven left no offspring. Last of all the woman died too. In the resurrection, when they rise again, which one's wife will she be? For all seven had her as wife.' Jesus said to them, 'Is this not the reason you are mistaken, that you do not understand the Scriptures, or the power of God? For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.


Checking the email just now, I found a new message, which I'll attach here, to avoid losing it later. The image itself is found at http://www.fakemailz.com/image.php?id=259048033579350

 		I got a message too...

edited to add:

the message transcribed:

Code:
<P><B>12:18</B> Then come unto him the Sadducees, which
say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,
<B>12:19</B> Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's
brother die, and leave his wife behind him, and leave
no children, that his brother should take his wife,
and raise up seed unto his brother.</P>
<P><B>12:20</B> Now there were seven brethren: and the
first took a wife, and dying left no seed.</P>
<P><B>12:21</B> And the second took her, and died, neither
left he any seedL and the third likewise.</P>
<P><B>12:22</B> And the seven had her, and left no seed:
last of all the woman died also.</P>
<P><B>12:23</B> In the resurrection therefore, when
they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for
the seven had her to wife.</P>
<P><B>12:24</B> And Jesus answering said unto them,
Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures
neither the power of God? <B>12:25</B> For when they
shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are
given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in
heaven.</P>
<P><STRONG>DO NOT DELETE THIS E-MAIL - CHECK IT AGAIN
IN A FEW HOURS</STRONG></P>

 		I just checked again and mine has changed to the second message which is identical to Idran1701's second one.

Code:
<P>Can you trust your eyes? Do you believe what you
have seen?</P>

<P><STRONG>DO NOT DELETE THIS E-MAIL - CHECK IT AGAIN

 		I'm not really sure. I didn't send any messages to any addresses on theunraveling.com, and I don't remember anywhere on the site to put an email address. Best I can figure, the unraveling is part of another organization that me and varin were also on the list for. Maybe Seventh Sons, given the nature of the biblical quote? Except if that were the case, I wouldn't think they'd put a link to the unraveling on Ed's page...

In game, if they can hack Ed's page, they could probably hack his emails as well. He has mentioned he's been having trouble with his old address lately.

 		*nods* That makes sense. And, both me and varin have emailed Ed at some point, so that fits too.

and as far as I remember I haven't emailed the seventh sons. So I think that makes the most sense.

It's time to ante up for Christ's sake.


To quote Eolirin from chat, "Now, the question is is that an explitive "for christ's sake"... or a literal one."
