Pantyfanatic,
There’s something to that. Thomas Tusser had a useful quote to cover it. |

"A fool and his money may soon be parted" but it is far more complex than that. Many are foolish, not fools, but lonely souls lost in search of some form of human care and contact. For some, it is via these preachers who promise them the best of this world through Christ and beyond in the afterlife that they feel more connected to the world and to their god. That is one area of thought on people who send off these guys their money. For others it is no more than tithing to their church of choice. Either way these contributors are believers in their faith, no more different than anyone else is.....unfortunate for most, but that's free enterprise, I mean freedom of religion for you! ;) |
In the beginning Pat created.....
In 1960, Pat bought a struggling UHF television station for $37,000 and gave it an evangelistic format. It would be the beginnings of CBN -- the Christian Broadcasting Network. He launched a religious talk show in 1963 and called it the 700 Club. It showcased lots of trippy religious stuff, including glossolalia -- speaking in tongues. This was later removed from the show in the 1980s.
In addition to being a media mogul, Robertson became well-known as a faith healer. In one of his 1981 sermons, thankfully preserved on videotape, Pat told his congregation: "Satan has gone! God has just healed somebody! A hernia has been healed! Several people are being healed of hemorrhoids and varicose veins! People with flat feet! God is doing just great things to you!" :) |

BIBI, Well, we agree on that. |

SEXY! (and yeah, I wish people didn't send them money. The Vatican just sent olive oil and other things to the 'soup kitchen' in my 'hood. HOW MUCH DID IT COST TO SEND THAT? Could there be a better way to transfer funds? OK, I'm kinda thinking it's cool to be using olive oil from there but still!) |
Pat Robertson sings the same old song it appears....
A few years back he was quoted as saying that if Haiti hadn't kicked out the French two hundred years ago they wouldn't have had such bad luck. |

It's pretty funny every time he opens his mouth... until I realize that people actually listen to him :confused: |
