This is what's wrong with Christianity today.  Boy in the old days fleecing of the flock was done with real class.  The Borgia and Medici had real class acts going as they lined their papal pockets -- masterworks by Botticelli, Michelangelo, Da Vinci, and others; architecture by Brunelleschi; and their whores were beautiful, well educated, and exquisitely dressed courtesans.  Nowadays we've got nouveau riche trailer trash with art by Thomas Kinkade, architecture by Fleetwood Homes, and whores like Jessica Hahn.

It's about the money.  Get enough and you can fulfill your cheesy desires to your hearts content.  Plus, if your viewers don't recognize your material possessions from stuff they see at K-Mart, you won't make as big of an impression.

As SGOS said. It's about money. Pretty sure it was about money back then as well. At least for some of those people.
Frankly this is the first time in my life I've heard about Paul Crouch. But from your descriptions I can imagine what he was about. I've heard about the Borgia's and the Medici's though..... Makes you wonder doesn't it?

How can you say those things about good Christian people whose ministry does so much for others?

Seriously though, what does it take to get into that racket?  They ask people to send money to God, but it has to go through them first.  Are they God's bankers?  Why would God even need bankers to collect the money for him?

I watched your video and a couple of others that show up after the video finishes.  It's disgusting to hear about their lavish life styles and personal jets.  But if people are that stupid to send them money, why shouldn't they be entitled to it?  Stupid people are going to be fleeced, anyway.  It might as well be by them, I suppose...  As long as they can sleep at nights.  I guess being a psychopath can have it's advantages.

A lot of people have told me I'd make a great televangelist. I could do it too because I have few qualms with stripping the right wing power base of money. The only problem is I'm a lousy liar, but I could learn.
For a mere 50 million I'd gladly say I'm a former evil non believer but saw the light and hear voices at bed time too then donate a mil or two to billboards n shit like that.. :lol:

Freyands..Jayyyzez needs yowr money to buy new drapes in heaven! :prayer:

Bunch of lame ass guys at the VOA used to watch those asswipes and when someone changed the channel to watch football or something they would feign 'religious persecution', but it never worked. :lol:
