Please, if you haven't learned that most of the mega-church TV preachers and televangelists are complete scams, and anyone claiming to be a “Christian businessman” is probably a scam too, then good luck. You are in for a huge disappointment.

Don't get me wrong. There are plenty of great business people who are Christians, but like the phony mega-church and modern televangelists, the businessmen who try to scam you by getting you to lower your guard by claiming to be governed by Christian principles deserve a special place in Hell.

My favorite one was the then-Orlando based TV preacher who was selling Jesus dish-washing soap, ("Cleanse your soul while you cleanse your dishes,") at $50.00 per 28 oz bottle. It was simply relabeled cheap dish soap bought a gross at the time from the Dollar Store.

By the way, my well-developed disdain for televangelists does not in any way include Billy Graham and family.

I have a great disdain for Televangelists also, I even worked for a watchdog group for them several years ago.

I don’t classify most of them to be Christians either, rather just charlatans cashing in on the name of Christ - just like Joseph Smith.

Well, I'm with you there. I really have to be very, very cautious when listening to TV preachers. I can't stand all the slick packaging and some are just in it for the money.

The test of course, as with all things, is the bible. Do they preach the Word? Are they pointing to Jesus?

You may be right; but I can assure you that if JS was around today; he'd be in charge of a MEGA-church!


Oh; wait!

MORMONs ARE!!!

(The pictures starting to make any sense yet?)
