And the multitude was silent for the space of one half hour. After that time, the Ogre from the North Country, a large hairy beast with two canines unttered a short sentence containing no life giving breath ---  an audible that was of no greater consequence  than a grunt or growl from whose who wondered about in his kingdom.   He and his kingdom gathered around the written message above but could not comprehend its true meaning.   So they gathered together, breaking the silence, and gave response with words that had nothing to do with The Message and everthing to do with the anger they felt just before tearing the flesh off some unsuspecting victim.  This they called "evangelism" and peace of mind of the result.

2 Timothy 3

   1But realize this, that (A)in the last days difficult times will come.

   2For men will be (B)lovers of self, (C)lovers of money, (D)boastful, (E)arrogant, (F)revilers, (G)disobedient to parents, (H)ungrateful, (I)unholy,

   3(J)unloving, irreconcilable, (K)malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, (L)haters of good,

   4(M)treacherous, (N)reckless, (O)conceited, (P)lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

   5holding to a form of (Q)godliness, although they have (R)denied its power; (S)Avoid such men as these.

   6For among them are those who (T)enter into households and captivate (U)weak women weighed down with sins, led on by (V)various impulses,

   7always learning and never able to (W)come to the knowledge of the truth.

   8Just as (X)Jannes and Jambres (Y)opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, (Z)men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith.

   9But they will not make further progress; for their (AA)folly will be obvious to all, just (AB)as Jannes's and Jambres's folly was also.
