Rare truth in advertising........
May 24, 2015 at 11:37 am
Ok, so I am flipping through my tv channels, and of course being Sunday the services pop up. At the end of a Sunday morning news program I waited to see what was coming on next. Then the following disclaimer "The following is a paid advertisement" then went into a local Church service.

Yep, that is what it is, an advertisement. That was however the first time I saw a disclaimer before such a program. Funny how God "poofs" all this into existence and needs modern media to get his message out. All powerful but needs a PR department and an add campaign.

Because reality is kicking god and his followers proverbial in the wallet and the crotch.

Nothing says "universal truth" like feeling the need to buy airtime for your version of it.
