sms message

CNN.com – No more text messages from Jesus Oh, brother. A story from earlier this year. Too good to ignore.

HELSINKI, Finland (Reuters) — A service promising to answer people’s prayers with a text message apparently sent by Jesus has been shut down after complaints by Finland’s mobile services watchdog.

The heavenly service offered answers from Jesus in response to a text message prayer at the cost of a hefty 1.20 euros ($1.52) per message, but lasted less than a month.

“These kinds of services are against basic norms,” said Ville Nurmi, ombudsman for Finland’s mobile content watchdog, MAPEL.

Finland’s Mobile G Host transmitted the messages, but declined to name the company that provided the replies from “Jesus.” Chief Executive Marko Hakala said the service was axed as soon as he discovered what was being offered.
