" I guess the internet is the work of Satan or something. "
Satan...Al Gore...same difference.
"I also guess this "minister" has neglected to read the book of "James", too. Ah, well..."
I'd say the entire New Testament was neglected.
But hey - he's "SAVED" so he can be a pious phony 'minister' in his wonderful, multi-million dollar 'megachurch' while others go starving. Just as long as he doesn't have to hang around those evil Catholics!!

Well, I don't think I'd go that far, frankly. I'm sure he believes what he is saying regarding the Catholics. I've met many people who feel that way...wrongly, I believe.
But, as you said, that's not reason to withhold funds which are going to feed the hungry, IMO. It makes a splashy statement, I guess, and will probably increase the size of his congregation, but I still think it's stupid.
Given that the Roman Catholic Church is, by far, the largest denomination of Christianity and one of the oldest, I find it rather odd that some folks declare it to be non-Christian and quote the II Corinthians verse that calls for Christians not to be linked to unbelievers.
Clearly, the Roman Catholic Church is a Christian church, and is the predecessor of all the Protestant sects. One can disagree with some of its doctrines, certainly, but to imply that it is not a Christian church stretches credulity.
