Notably, he has written two books on marriage: Real Love Dating and Real Love Marriage.

Hey, nowhere in those books did he say you can't do both at the same time.

He gets to retain their 14,000sqf mansion, (below) which sits on 58 acres and is valued at $2.8M

Seems more like a property settlement than alimony, plus no discount for the present value of the payments.

I think his lawyer ran roughshod over the ex-wife.

Don’t forget to tithe!

Gilbert Andre Thompson

Dequilla LaShawn Thompson

MmmmmmHmmmm.

[Fai Mao]

Divorce should mean retirement from the ministry

[No name given]

Exactly.

[californian by choice]

His followers will have one more option to donate, a special fund to pay the monthly allowance of the pastor’s ex

[Mogger]

I guess the ignorant barbarian leftist extremists aren't the only stupid people in the USA.

I can't understand why anyone would give a dime to these mega church charlatans.

Bingo! They are more Hollywood than pastors with their mega church, mega houses and private airliners. It is a big turn off to religion while they tell their membership to give.

[SpaceBar]

It’s a statistic that shows how gullible and stupid people are.

These ‘pastors’ would have to find honest work without the throngs of morons supporting them.

I’ve said that about the original megachurch on the Tiber for decades.

[Getready]

Now he can write a book on REAL DIVORCE....

[BatGuano]

“MmmmmmmmmHmmmmmmm.”
Are we thinking Pastor Thompson and his ex-wife are AMISH?

[NorthMountain]

One has certain suspicions.

One has learned to stop bothering Yogi with questions.

[iluvschnitzle]

Jesus is good business

[SamAdams76]

Hopefully the suckers that go to this “megachurch” pony up a little extra when the collection trays are passed around to cover the added expense of this pastor’s ex, while allowing him to continue in the luxurius lifestyle to which he has become accustomed.

Do you believe there aren’t ignorant barbarian leftist extremists in the church?

Do you believe there aren’t ignorant barbarian leftist extremists in the church?

Now that you mention it, you are right.

I've met a LOT of them in our local "churches".
