[Mike_Yates]

Are televangelists holy men or just greedy con artists trying to sucker naive people out of their money?

Some of them are worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

The Lord works in mysterious ways...

Just like she moves...

Working' on those night moves...

He works hard for your money,
So hard for you honey...

 

[Christobal]

If you would just send me $1000 dollars in seed money to properly show your faith I might answer your poll.

How can I answer your needs unless you give until it hurts. Credit cards accepted.

 

[phrodeau]

There are no holy men. Either that, or everybody's holy.

Some holy and some unholy is not feasible. If it was, there would be a way to tax it.

So Gautama Buddha was a con artist looking to get rich?

So Gautama Buddha was a con artist looking to get rich?

No just another wealthy Prince who deserted his wife and child for a life of self- absorption.

They give hard working crooks a bad name.

Telemarketing.
Case in point: 'Creflo Dollar'

Creflo wants his followers to pay him $70,000,000 so he can buy a private jet.

He should ride on an ass as Jesus did.

That was the most popular mode of transportation at the time.

Oh, they also had boats too.

There's no such thing as holy men. Some are idiots who believe what they're peddling. Most are old skool grifters.

The Gospel of Prosperity is the most amazingly shallow con ever. It baffles my mind that it actually works.

Then again, The Donald is the nominee for president of the United States for a major political party.

It's so contrary to everything that Jesus preached. It's absolutely ludicrous.

"God wants you to be rich!"

The same one that said, "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God"? That God?

Who is this guy and what the hell are those lumps around his eyes?

If he's rich, then certainly he can afford plastic surgery.

My non-profit church is in Malibu just above the PCH. We minister to to the local surfers, lost tourists and because we welcome all have a support arm for Pepperdine students who are starting to lean left.

Out rent is due.
