Declaring his authority over the weather and his ability to command it, Texas-based prosperity preacher and televangelist Kenneth Copeland called forth a supernatural heatwave last Thursday to kill the new coronavirus in New York City and the rest of the world where its needed.
Speaking on the first day of his Virtual Victory Campaign on Facebook Live, the leader of Kenneth Copeland Ministries called the weather Gods weapon and revealed that we learned
45 years ago that we have command, authority over the weather.
He also shared a number of stories of how he commanded tornadoes and other weather events to protect his property before addressing the weather remedy for the new coronavirus, which has infected more than 300,000 people in the U.S. and killed more than 9,600 as of Monday morning, according to Johns Hopkins. Nearly a third of the deaths have been in New York City, which has been described as the epicenter of the outbreak of the virus in the U.S.

Missed this idiocy on Monday. These charlatans really need to be taxed to the hilt.

I mean, of COURSE he needs a $20 million airplane! Why not?
This is some world class grifting right here, man.

A HERETIC I AM
(24,369 posts)That is the Tao, is it not?
It isn't necessarily the caring, so much as it is the expectation of a particular result.
Remove all desire, all expectation of reward, and bliss is down that path.
Do unto others, as you would have done to you, and do so without expectation of reward or acknowledgement.
Be good. And decent. And kind.
Mr. Preacherman does what he does because flying about in a private airplane is fucking cool!
Screw the tithers who go without so that he may ride in style!
That is their wont in life.

We are even now seeing Trump adopting this same strategy. Win win.
The DNC should hire a reformed con man to anticipate the GOP's moves.

internet!
You know, the tubes thingies. The search engine doo-dad. Any one of them will tell Dear Kenny that the coronavirus can withstand heat up to 132F. Now... Something else happens at that extreme temperature. People die. So Dear Kenny wants temps to rise to lethal temperatures for people so that a virus can be killed. Hmm... Doesn't that defeat the purpose of killing the virus? Maybe Kenny would be down with a thermonuclear explosion on all high density areas, where the virus infects the most people, AND where the virus will turn into nuclear soup with bones and hair.
