Generally speaking I don’t do caucus threads. This is not identified as such, so have at it!

Behind the smile is a robust emphasis on all that is negative. If you are healthy and wealthy, words created that reality. However, if you find yourself in dire financial straits, contract cancer, or, God forbid, die an early death, your words are the prime suspect.

What do these people, and these congregations (won't call them churches) do when tragedy comes? Say, a senseless car wreck, or someone dying alone in an apartment a thousand miles from family? What do those preachers say?

Perhaps these people lead a "blessed" life and never experience pain. I've seen too much death lately to ever give any credence to this false teaching.

Thanks for the link to Hank’s article! I listen to him on the drive home in the evenings. I always seem to come away having learned something new.
