Warning, religious bashing rant ahead, plan accordingly.
MeFi had this article about two utter scumbags posing as religious leaders, Paul and Jan Crouch live like royalty off of the money they've fleeced from their flock of sinners trying to get to heaven. Pastor's Empire Built on Acts of Faith, and Cash and this choice bit "even viewers who couldn't afford a $1,000 pledge should take a 'step of faith' and make one anyway".
What does that mean? That means that these two, Paul Crouch and his wife, Jan, think that you should go into debt to help them buy a new church that they could have purchased without any help at all. They want you to give money you don't have so that they can continue to live like Sultans. Why? Because God will return it right to you, yup, that's what they said. And people seem to believe them for some truly unknown reason, is this that infamous leap of faith that religous types like to talk about? That giving money to people who say they rep for God is their faith that those fucks aren't going to spend that money on coke and hookers and another luxury villa in the south of France? Ooh, faith. I have faith that people who send their money to any "religous" jackoff on the television might as well be setting fire to their money and inhaling the smoke for all the good it will do them.
These two are the very definition of what's wrong with religion. In the name of religion they are fleecing people again and again and again. They are pimping God's name in order to bring Christianity to India, a land that's not really lacking for religious fervor already. Does India want them? Hell no. Do the Crouch's give a damn? You must be kidding, the only thing they care about is making more money for themselves and taking more money away from their "followers".
And are they pious in anyway? Fuck no, ol' Paul had to just pay nearly a half million in shut up money to a former employee because Paul liked to sodomize him or get sodomized by him. That's right, Paul had a homosexual affair that he paid off on to keep from getting into the press too much.
You know what? Give these crooked fucks your money if you think it'll buy your way into heaven. You deserve to have your money taken away from you if you're so stupid. These two won't be in heaven when you get there though, they'll be spinning over a hellfire pit with red hot pokers jabbed through their bodies as they slow roast to sin-perfect perfection.
They make $170 million a year, 2/3 of which comes from viewers in donations of less than $50 each mostly. That sickens me really. So many people reaching out in good faith in an effort to get closer to whatever spirituality they can.
Paul and Jan, enjoy it while you can because I hope there is a hell and I hope you get to spin and sizzle for eternity.
