Some seem to think that Marx's "useful idiots" and Barnum's "suckers" only get conned by politicians and carnival barkers.
As Marx and Barnum and the "religion industry" know, it is IMPOSSIBLE to save some people from themselves. No amount of "reason" will change their "emotion-driven" minds.
They are the object of this truism: "A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still".
One cannot reason someone _out of_ what he didn't first reason himself _into_.
Religious KOOKS permeate TBN ... and there is a BIG market for them. They laugh all the way to the bank.
I'm sure that Paul and Jan Crouch and the rest of TBN's "religion industry" laugh at the sheeple (as they are making their bank drop) who are stupid enough to send in their money.
