Re: Be careful of, "It Takes Guts to Say Jesus"

Hunter:

This is a hoax that's been around for a long time. See the following link.

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/jesus-hoax.html

It's worth checking on such things before forwarding them. All you have to do 
is google the key phrase to find out if it's a hoax or genuine.

Peace.
