Televangelists: The worst kind of Evil

Televangelists

Some folks just have it. Call it charisma if you will. These folks can go places. They often become polititians, actors, or musicians.

These people can be good or bad. Most of them probably start out good. The thing is that people with charisma soon learn that they can use that charisma to make money. Money can easily corrupt people. That is often what turns a charismatic person with the best of intentions to corruption.

This is seen all the time in politics. Some go into politics for power in the first place, but many others go into it with the desire to to good only to be taken down years later with scandal. Such behavior among politicians is well documented and expounded upon on countless sites so I won’t go on about it here.

The thing is that many charismatic people also go into the ministry. This is one place that people should be able to withstand corruption. It’s teaching about God for goodness sake. They are standing in front of people that need comfort, people looking for direction. But what do some of them do to these people? While one hand pat’s their shoulder (or slaps their forehead), the other steals their wallet.

There are the small timers, like the guys that travel the Navajo indian reservations setting up revival tents and taking the old Navajo ladies’ turquoise jewelry. Then there are the big leaguers. The folks with enormous preaching shows with the lazer lights and the big bands. They take the money of thousands in return for empty platitudes. Televalgelists are the worst of the bunch.

I have yet to see a televagelist that didn’t make me squirm. They aren’t men or women of God. They are con artists. And horrible ones at that. Take TBN for instance. Everything about them is opulent and money hungry. The biggest thing that should tip you off about these criminals is the pink haired mother of the crypt keeper. That bewigged clown lady should scare every person looking for God away.

Here are some tips for knowing if someone is honestly trying to preach the word of God or just take your money:

1. Is there an entrance fee to their house of worship?

2. Check out their appearance. Do they look like humble servants of God or are they dressed in finery? Do they have multiple rings on their fingers? Jewelry? Tons of Makeup?

3. When passing the collection plate around, do they pressure you for more? Do they tell you how much to pay? Do they tell you where this money is going?

4. Do some research about them. How much of this money goes to charity and the Lord’s work? How much do they keep for themselves? Is it a comfortable living or do they live in a mansion? Did Jesus have a mansion built for his teaching?

I understand that a full time minister needs to be able to live, but is it God’s way for his sevants to become wealthy off of the money of the poor? Most of these people are snakes in preacher clothing. It’s people like this that make the rest of the world think Christians are crazy.

In my opinion these scum of the earth deserve to be brought down a bit. So I must admit that I love those Farting Preacher videos. What these people do is despicable. So why don’t you laugh at them with me? It may make you feel better.

This is the first one I ever saw. It is still hilarious.

Kungfu Farting Preacher.

Screaming Farting Preacher. This guy is so Evil. When the lady says she doesn’t feel anything, he calls her a liar. Holy crap.

There are most assuredly another group that often go into the ministry; those who have sexual proclivities that are either outright illegal, or frowned upon by most of society (and that can include gays, relative to the “society” the preacher hails from.)

Ministers and schoolteachers without doubt have a measurably higher rate of pedophiles within their ranks than society in general (a report here sugests that among the clergy the number may be as high as 1 in 5 of them.) And I’ll go this one further and point out that Assemblies of God preachers, in particular, seem to be heavily afflicted with lust, perversion, and greed. From Jim Jones, to Jim Bakker, to Jimmy Swaggart, to Leroy Jenkins, to Ted Haggard, with a whole bunch of lesser-knowns behind them.

I am not sure about it being 1 in 5, but that is definitely another scary avenue that people with evil intentions can take. But as it is too evil for me to take lightly and joke about, (Michael Jackson jokes aside.) I am leaving that one alone.

The main point I am making is that these are people taking positions of power that are twisting it to their advantage to the detriment of the rest of us.

Ooops looks like you forgot Obama’s “spiritual advisor” Jeremiah Wright Jr..

Any real christian out there should know that it is a duty to God to spread His word, He never said if the price is right then go do it. No one should get paid for God’s word. I don’t know how 2 hours a week would make you a full time minister. It is something we should do for free because we love Him and His children. It is pure evil to put a price on his word in anyway and if you are collecting tithes and offerings then they should be 100% towards charity, not to line the pockets of anyone. I once knew a baptist preacher who got paid by his congregation and had time for a full time job, tell me how he considered himself a full time preacher? I guess he thought because he carried the title full time he should be able to get money for it.

I agree. It is people like these that give christians a bad name.

whoever wrote this is a fabulous person.
I am writing a screeplay about these pricks and it will be made into a #1 movie in the country. I promise you.
My name is TJ Preston, and these people
will be exposed….. but very cleverly!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Please do some research on this N.Y. pastor Dr Paul Lewis. He was just detained by police in Jamaica for having sex with a fifteen year old while the 14 year old friend looked on. He paid them $55 and $35 for the pleasure.

Hotel staff became suspicious when they observed him taking the minors to his room late Saurday, and the cops nabbed him just before he took to the pulpit at his tent meeting.

Why is there silence on this scandal?
