Toot, Seldom do I watch TV preachers, the ones just after money are not hard to spot. Those lying prosperity preachers (Joel Osteen and the like) are among the worst. I like to listen to Joel Osteen. he has a nice voice and is a smooth talker... I don't send him anything and wish he would of been a Country/ Western singer.. I think he would of made millions singing... we don't have any good country singers coming up at this time... Mel Tillis was one of my favorite ones... I listen to patches all the time...Have a happy memorial Day all.....Hubert.

Joel OsteenHOUSTON, TX—Prosperity gospel preacher Joel Osteen has warned the nation that it is far too soon for Christians to reopen their Bibles. "We must continue our indefinite lockdown of the Bible," he said in a sermon Sunday. "If we open it up too soon, it could be a disaster. Just think: if people started reading their Bibles willy-nilly, they wouldn't believe what I have to say any longer. And my luxury cars aren't going to pay for themselves." "Out of an abundance of caution, it's important that we keep our Bibles closed as long as possible." Studies have shown that reopening the Bible can lead to sudden heart change, reduced fear and anxiety, and the destruction of every tenet of the prosperity gospel. Osteen says these effects are detrimental to Christians who simply want God to bring blessing, favor, and lots of cold, hard cash into their lives. "We simply can't reopen God's Word any time soon." Osteen then declared words of victory over himself and his congregation for the next twenty minutes to get the taste of the word "Bible" out of his mouth.

There’s lots of competition out there among televangelist. That’s what got Jimmy Swaggert’s asss busted. His main competitor was Gorman in New Orleans whom Swaggert said should resign his ministry for having an affair with a church member. Said it on television. Gorman’s folks put a full time 24/7 tail on Swaggert and caught him with the prostitute, Debra Murphy, in a hotel room down in Gorman’s territory (Metairie). Twas tit for tat, so to speak. Gorman didn’t quit. He later caught Swaggert in West Baton Rouge at 11 pm cruising the sleaze hotels to which Swaggert claimed he was there checking out a radio tower that his ministry owned. The ministry had sold the radio tower 5 years previously. Wham !! Ain’t but so many tv ministry viewing believers and the competition is rough. At his peak, Swaggert Ministries was taking in over 2 million $ per DAY.

So, we're supposed to fight scams by "contributing to this site- - - - - -"? LOL! I wonder who is running that scam??????????
Jerry
The main thing is to fight scammers by scamming them. Make them spend money and waste time while you make fools of them. The time they spend playing with you is time they can’t spend stealing from other more vulnerable people.

Here is an example of scam baiting: PostPosted: Mon May 02, 2016 5:54 pm Reply with quoteBack to top Turd Boy: Summary Hector, or "Turd boy" as he is latterly known has vanished from view as of late December 2015 having been baited most wonderfully for nine years by SlapHappy, Just Jane, TheLovelyJill, Jade Falcon, inspector Gadget, and finally Bohigal and Dr Stephen Williams. His adventures began in 2007 during a Simba Safari bait and progressed from there. Following a succesful career as scammer predating upon the elderly and disabled, he travelled briefly with Shorty, another Eater superstar lad, and evaded Interpol, assassins, police and immigration officials. He has visited Kenya, South Africa, Uganda, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Liberia amongst others. He spent six months in an Egyptian prison, got many, many dreadful tattoos, sent ear prints, anus prints, numerous other, often pornographic photo trophies and ... masturbation videos. It's a splendid tale of drunkenness, horror, betrayal, temptation, backstabbing, fear, romance, greed and lust. Enjoy the ride. Part 1 - Origins: https://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=123898 - This describes a still-current modality so will stay in HHT. Other purely Turd Boy threads have moved to Greatest Hits and are detailed below.
