...to be taken in by a clown like this. Of course if you believe that a bush can catch fire and talk, then I guess you could swallow this too. For the record, I don't believe in werewolves either. Witches, maybe (I'm thinking back on my first wife).

Even true believers know this Kenneth Copeland is not a Christian but a charlatan - or a wolf in sheep's clothing. Just look at the way he talks and his eyes , even I think he is creepy. There are quiet a few like him that fleece the flocks ( so to speak) and keep the funds for themselves and boast how they need the money lol.
They can't take it with them.............

This guy is, at best, an entertainer, so why on earth should he be granted tax-exempt status? Of course, that's probably no worse than Amazon paying NO taxes....but at least they provide a service.

The number of Jim Bakers, Jimmy Swaggart's and countless others who get caught doing unconscionable things, repent loudly and double contributions astounds me.

Most of the preachers I've met have been extrovert sand manipulators of absolutely no substance.

At least there's something Trump can do after he gets out of prison.

It's not really his fault.You know how we say it's not the keyboard but a keyboardist , or whatever the term is.Well, it's not the priest, it's the stupid idiots that follow him and give him money to do all he's doing.
It's not the president, it's the imbeciles that elected him or keep supporting him. But, that again it's the war mongering system that is there for last 70 something years. It really doesn't matter who is on the top,it's all the same.

One of my favorite skits. If you don't need the buildup you can skip to 2:00. Very funny.

At first glance, I thought that was a tan, much younger version of Jimmy Swaggert who was "dance challenged"

In my heavy drinking days, I started a church. called "Cowboys for Christ" one time. We put donation buckets at the lounges I played, but I kept drinking up all the contributions.

We closed the doors when, one Saturday, on the Jim Baker show, a real guy, in a real cowboy hat (mine was like the one my friend Charlie Daniels wears)showed up as a guest.

We had a ladies auxiliary, headed up by a hooker from Taiwan,
but the name "(Something really gross) For Christ" never quite worked.

Richard was ahead of his time...making socially relevant comments and selling it as comedy with a serious edge.

Loved him and most of the 2nd City and SNL graduates.
