I bought something on Etsy and this happened.

I bought some lovely stationery on Etsy and the woman who has the Etsy shop also sent a note about Jesus filled with quotes from scripture. I thought it was kind of inappropriate.

1. I won't buy from them again if they do that.

If I wanted to be preached to, I would go to church. If I buy a product, I wanted the product, not to be preached to. I can't stand that stuff. I have had them try that with me too. I can find the same product elsewhere, usually, or get something different.

3. I wasn't.

It’s really nice stationery, nicer than I thought it would be. But, I didn’t appreciate the preaching.

4. Leave a review stating what they did

Best way to put an end to it. Sounds like what they really want to sell is Jesus, so they should go do that instead.

5. First I would contact the shop owner and let them know how I feel about their

"extra" included gift. If they respond in a way that is appropriate, I would let the matter drop. If not then review it and do not return as a customer.

6. I've had that happen with ebay purchases... I just let it roll over me.

There is nothing about the actual tenets of Christ (as opposed to the RW fundy attempts to "recreate" his message) that I find problematic. Pretty consistent with secular views of "right and wrong" and equality.

So, unless they were preaching some bastardized version or some politicized RW version--or demanding something of or from me, I'd just let it roll off of me. How hard is it to discard it with the rest of the packaging?
