I see this guy on early morning TV all of the time, always using the same bit. It's just sad, what he's doing to the uneducated. I think the xtians out there need to rise up and put an end to this.

I suspect the Jesus character from the bible would weep to see what has become of his franchise regardless of the denomination.

That is another form of sick manipulation that takes from people under the banner of "the way to salvation."

I agree. And, you'd think if this loving character, jesus, was up in heaven watching this happen in his name, he'd try to correct it in some way, or make it known that this type of behavior is incorrect, and leads to hell. You'd see many people get their act together real quick, but I guess he doesn't care very much.

The only real Jesus is Supply Side Jesus, and he couldn't be happier.

From the film Hannah and Her Sisters:

Quote:You see the whole culture. Nazis, deodorant salesmen, wrestlers, beauty contests, a talk show. Can you imagine the level of a mind that watches wrestling? But the worst are the fundamentalist preachers. Third grade con men telling the poor suckers that watch them that they speak with Jesus, and to please send in money. Money, money, money! If Jesus came back and saw what's going on in his name, he'd never stop throwing up.

Youtuber and Magic Sandwich host dprjones made a video campaign against this bottomfeeder several years ago. Here's the first:





Also check out the famous moment when James Randi blew his faith healing scam out of the sky:



At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
