A small company that prints the letters "WWJD" – a common acronym for the question "What would Jesus do?" – on its correspondence has been sued by the president of a competing company, who claims the reference is "abusive" and "harassing."


Bullseye Collection Agency of Monticello, Minn., uses "WWJD" as a part of its business philosophy and motto, as a reminder to treat others respectfully in an industry often characterized with incivility.


But when Bullseye sent out a general collection letter with the "WWJD" imprint in the letterhead to consumer debtor Mark Neill – who happens to be the president of another, much larger collection company – and his wife, the Neills filed a federal lawsuit, claiming the motto violates the federal Debt Collection Practices Act.


Documents from the lawsuit claim Bullseye's use of "WWJD" invokes shame or guilt in the letter's recipient, portraying the debtor "as a sinner who is going to hell."


"That claim is beyond ridiculous and absurd," responded Harry Mihet, an attorney for Liberty Counsel, which is defending Bullseye in the suit, "because the collection letters do not contain any language even remotely resembling that claim."


Read the rest on the web site link above.  Will they NEVER leave Christians alone??  Here is a company trying to do the RIGHT thing, the Christian thing, and jagoffs are persecuting them.  The Devil will never stop in his quest to punish God’s Children. sigh.
