The Million Dollar Question

Ray Comfort's Living Waters ministry is in trouble--sort of. Apparently, the ministry sells a tract that looks like a million dollar bill (which doesn't exist in American currency). The back of the "bill" has the gospel message on it which is in the form of a "million dollar question."

Some foolish person tried to deposit one of these tracts at his bank, which then prompted a counterfeit investigation which then led to the seizure of 8,300 tracts by the Secret Service. Ironically, since the seizure took place there have been orders for about 500,000 of the tracts. Comfort has been advised by attorneys to not turn over the goods.

"The thinking is that if agents show a judge a copy of the $1 million tract, he would laugh till he cried and then, after catching his breath, he would thank the agents for a good laugh and then ask them to stop wasting his time," he explained.

So what's happening here? Is this "religious persecution" or a legitimate crime? Just wondering.
