There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose job was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses. One day, a letter came addressed in a shaky handwriting to God with no actual address. He thought he should open it to see what it was about. The letter read: Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow, living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had $100 in it, which was all the money I had until my next pension payment. Next Sunday is Christmas, and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with, have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope. Can you please help me? Sincerely, Edna The postal worker was touched. He showed the letter to all the other workers. Each one dug into his or her wallet and came up with a few dollars. By the time he made the rounds, he had collected $96, which they put into an envelope and sent to the woman. The rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of Edna and the dinner she would be able to share with her friends. Christmas came and went.. A few days later, another letter came from the same old lady to God. All the workers gathered around while the letter was opened. It read: . . . . . . Dear God, How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your gift of love, I was able to fix a glorious dinner for my friends. We had a very nice day and I told my friends of your wonderful gift. By the way, there was $4 missing. I think it might have been those bastards at the post office.

lol... that's a good one... yeah, there's a book called Letters to Santa as well. It's a pretty touching read.
Opening mail is a federal offense and postal workers know this, so this is fake, if not then they need to be arrested....
Actually postal workers read and acting on "to god" letters is a true story and there was a movie made on it to, if I remember correct they were charged but acquitted later since those whose letters had been read didn't press charges.
First off, it was kind of poll on whether or not this joke is supposed to be actually funny but now I am wondering is it merely a joke or something based on true event as Helvetti mentioned. BTW, @Helvetti do you still remember the movie name if any?
