The irony is that each person listening to him will think s/he is one of the three hundred. If they were all to meet together at a stadium, they might either realize how ridiculous they are being or they would fight over who belongs in the divine three hundred.

Why does god need money? He could just give all of his followers everything they need.
I wonder if they're trained to talk in that smooth seductive masculine voice, or if god gives them that talent when they're anointed...

Where's your faith sister? Geesh!

If you send me 35 payments of $100 each, I'll pray for your faith to increase.

Have you ever played one of those god simulator type games? Making your followers happy is no fun, its much more fun to make them miserable.

Likewise, this asshole can't demonstrate his claims are true. I suppose the question is this - why do we give religious frauds a free pass when secular frauds don't get one?

The original (that I'm aware of) was Populous - you played as a deity and could help your own people, harm the opposing deity's people, or... whatever the fuck you wanted.

Dropping a volcano on your opponent = great fun. Or a flood. Or hell, do it to your own people - you're a god, after all.

God fraud is a-ok, but secular fraud of this sort would probably be a felony.

Once again, Religion gets a pass to (in this case) steal red-handed from the gullible.

Because when shown the evidence the victims will insist that they were not taken advantage of and there was no fraud. How can you prosecute a criminal if the victim denies there was a crime. It'd be like trying to convict someone of theft with the store owner on the stands insisting that he gave them the shoes as a gift.
