So you agree they’re not businesses?
Strictly speaking, even the small non-profits you are referring to have to take more in than they put out, i.e. make a profit. So no, I do not agree.
I've worked in C corps and LLCs where some of the people were not getting paid. Still a business.

No. A business is there to make money and gain.

A charity is not.

The NRA is a business. Church is a business.

Handing out soup cans at zero profit is not a business.

Televangelists are little more than cartels. Western Christianity has fuct a lot of things up.

Who was the one that was Jerry Lee Lewis & Mickey Gilley’s cousin?

He was a big time Holy Roller Televangelist in the 1970’s & 80’s that got caught spending Church funds on hookers & ruined ?

He swindled lots of little old ladies out of their life savings too.

Probably about the only honest Televangelist ever was the Reverend Billy Graham. His eldest son is carrying on his work, I think, nowadays.

It was Jimmy Swaggart. I had to google it.

But in 2007 the Senate committee appeared to think that some ministries were abusing this privilege and violating an IRS rule that church earnings may not "unreasonably benefit" an individual.

The Trinity Foundation shared all its research with the committee, and attended meetings with its officials.

The group - led by Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley - decided to focus on six well-known figures: Joyce Meyer, Creflo Dollar, Eddie Long, Kenneth Copeland, Benny Hinn and Paula White - who is now President Trump's spiritual adviser.

All six denied wrongdoing. Four failed to co-operate satisfactorily, according to the committee (White, Copeland, Dollar and Long). Larry had donated to three of them.

"We really thought it was going to come to something," says Pete.

Yet by 2011, the investigation had lost steam. Senator Grassley drew no specific conclusions. Instead he asked an evangelical group - the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) - to study ways to spur "self-reform" among ministries.


Its money for sure. But on the topic of preaching on TV, I don't see that as any worse than the crap they put on for TV hunting shows for the most part. Both are mostly crud.


We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

We get all tied up in exact words from the Bible. IMHO we all get judged anyway. But I understand. Should have said it better had it the quote about throwing stones in a glass house...

Yep. Lotsa worse crap on TV like sitcoms about Gay couples on “Will & Grace” or idiotic Libertard Late Night Shows like Cobair & Kimball.
