While this thread is focused on the actions of the 2 con-people for jesus, I assure you that I am very aware of the thousands of people who screw people out of their money in the name of a fictional character (jesus, yahweh, etc).
This is just one example of many examples of how poisonous and dangerous religion can be, and how effectively it is used to get free money from the poor suckers who are gullible enough to believe in it.
