Been exposed to this nonsense? I mean a family member (elderly) has SBN network on. It is a 24 hour nonstop Tele-thon to fill its own pockets. Half the people are crying, some are speaking or singing in tongues. Everybody with their hands in the air?

A running tote board with a goal of 4.6 million tonight. TONIGHT!!!

My family member gives $$ to this nonsense. Does not go to regular church. For an old man who jerks off to whores.

As I watch I can’t wrap my head around the people in the crowd and choir. Many look absolutely insane as you’d expect. But at least half look normal-ish. I don’t get how this happens?

I want to start punching myself in the face. IB4 “Do it”.

I’ve been offered the remote. I have accepted.

The phone is ringing. Who is it? It’s Jesus on the Mainline. I love listening to Brother Jimmy’s gospel music.

The man can play and sing

Make fun of them all you want. El Gaucho’s cousin sent one of those preachers a 100$ and they sent him some holy lotion that cured his Fibromyalgia.

I use to deliver pizzas to his son's house on that big ole piece of property off Highland back in 2002-2003. He tipped well, had two beautiful bulldogs, And I'm pretty sure he wanted to tickle my pickle.

Missed Opportunities.

Some guy I went to HS with tried to deliver the word to me. Evidently there is or was a school at the Bluebonnet site? He was attending and wanted me to listen to a few CDs.

A few weeks later he came ask if I ever listened to them and I told him no. He seemed to be offended. He referred to him as "brother jimmy", but I told him I was just being nice when I said I would listen to the CDs and that I had no interest whatsoever to listen to or attend any of it because my views were not aligned with what they preach.

He told me he would pray for me.

I’ve not had my life impacted by a TV preacher, but my wife is way, way lost in Glenn Beck’s stuff.

She can’t see that he’ll preach on coming food shortages before reading an ad for doom food. Sad.

A lot of our daily conversations include her echoing his talking points off the radio.

You think Swaggart is bad? Look up old videos of Bob Tilton.
