Hacker alert!

General
I got hacked. Possibly by someone insane.
A couple days ago, I got an invite on MSN to add this person to my list. Didn't know him, but I'm a friendly guy. Why not?
Last night, I talked to him. And not long after that, several people started giving me invites. Like, four or five. And three more when I got on this morning. One of them was this guy named "Darcia". Completely different personality from the other guy... but they didn't post their messages at the same time. And a lot of the other invites were from people from this "eimperial.org" domain. So I checked it out.
It's blank. No website at all.
From the evidence I have, my best guess is this is some script kiddie, who's either a compulsive liar or worse, insane. I'm betting he uses that website as a server for his multiple accounts, and either pretends or (and this is the scary part) actually believes that these are separate people. They could indeed be separate persons, but the coincidences are too many to make that likely.
To top it off, "they" believe that there's this "Empire of Elicia" where there are no laws, no democracy and no crime... a utopia. Apparently somewhere in South America. And get this: Christianity is outlawed there. Because it's cruel.
Christianity. Cruel.
Look, I know a lot of questionable and downright evil things were done in Christ's name, but if you look at the core of my faith, it's not cruel. It's about helping people into a relationship with God, getting them help and healing, and fighting off the attacks of the devil. Which I think is what happened to me. Had a crappy day yesterday, and this was like cyanide icing on top. Had me shaking in my bed because it just seemed so unfair.
In the end, I accused the kid of having multiple personalities and needing help. He flipped, accused Christianity of being the reason I was "being mean" (Darcia accused me of being brainwashed... pot, kettle much?) and shortly afterward I lost internet.
Don't worry, I'm fine. Had some malware, but I'm good now. And I'll have protection in case he tries this again. Not to mention "Darcia" has been reported to MSN. Let's see if the Empire of Elicia can compete with the Empire of Microsoft. I think I know which way I'm betting.
So, word to the wise, if you're contacted by Mezentius or someone with "eimperial.org" in their email, don't talk to them. Don't allow them onto your list, and check for malware if you do. This person is unstable and HATES Christianity. Only the devil could probably muster more venom. I wish I were kidding.
Consider yourselves warned.

Oh, and thanks for the heads up.
I won't argue about it, being christian myself, but these aspects of our religion should not be forgotten.
I don't think they should be forgotten, but we really need to view them as they really are: Actions born from the minds of mistaken and possibly power-hungry humans, not directed by the Word of God.
Like you said.. He was probably a slittle script kiddie with a DDoS attack script set to his server. Overloaded your net connection with ping requests.
