Don’t get me started on Osteen. His latest commercial says something like, Give me all your money, and ‘in due time’, you will be rewarded.
I don’t care about Kenneth Copeland one way or the other but when is Inside Edition going to ambush interview “Climate Savior” Algore about his private jets?
I hope he is not one of the — ahem — “ministers” who counsels young Christian Trump.
Yup-o.

Seeing most of these bastards on TV makes me puke.
And Billy Graham very rarely was on TV other than his crusades. His son Franklin the same.
They’re pretty much all nuts.
So you’re saying they should sell it all to private buyers who and give the money to the “poor.”
What will the “poor” do with the money, and whose pocket will it all wind up in when they spend it all?
“Wealth” is nothing more than money that you earned but didn’t spend. People who spend every penney that comes there way on Escalades, bling and hoes will never have wealth no matter how much of other peoples’ money you confiscate and give to them.
Peter Papoff’s holy water commercials really annoys the heck out of me. So shameful.
“So you’re saying they should sell it all to private buyers who and give the money to the “poor.””
No I never said that.
Reread what I posted.
I went through a TV evangelist phase about 25 years ago. Watched Benny Hinn, who was very powerful on TV, went to a large meeting of his in SoCal, left in total disgust. If anything, the crowd was hypnotized. Saw Copeland in person too—same experience. Flummuxers, both of them.
One morning about 4, I was up with a sick cat, turned on TV and saw Robert Tilton, before his fall from grace...The usual “send in $1000 and you’ll get it back tenfold.”
I was worried that I had a $25,000 tax bill to pay, so in a moment of weakness, I sent him $250. A couple of months later, I filed my taxes without sending money. Within a reasonable time, I had a call from the IRS saying they’d found discrepancies. I chatted them up and lo and behold, they called me back and said I didn’t owe them anything but they found an extra $2,500 I had paid and they were refunding it.
HMMMM...that $250 paid off exactly10x
The phenominon of belief?
I wouldn’t want to stand around him in a lightning storm.
This is a man I would pee on if he were on fire.
I can’t say that about others.
So you want them to sell the Pieta and give you the money?
“So you want them to sell the Pieta and give you the money?”
No more than I would want Copeland’s money.
I’m fine, thank you.
He could a Jim Jones type favored by Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden
Or a Westboro Baptist type favored by Al Gore
however I was at the Vatican as a tourist 20 years ago. At that time they bragged they had more than 25% of the worlds art and jewels. i wonder how many Christian schools that would fund. Or how much clean water and food for the starving. Or how many missionaries it would fund. We will never know as the Roman church chooses to hoard its vast wealth rather than use it to further Christ’s kingdom. For a Lord who had no possessions or place to lay His head while on earth
Most of the televangelists are nuts, crooks, frauds and otherwise hucksters.
What an idiot.
