I've heard it all now...The Miracle of the Dolls (Jan from TBN Ministries)

[Khephra]

I just watched this segment on The Smile of a Child ministry on TBN with Jan.

I know it's been talked about here before, but Jan on TBN (the one who looks worse than Tammy ever did) just told a story about when her ministry was in some third world country giving out white Barbi dolls to the kids there.

That's bad enough...but then she told about this "miracle" that happened when they were giving out the dolls. See, there was only enough dolls for 2000 kids, but 6000 showed up. They didn't know what they were going to do...but God miraculously multiplied the 2000 dolls (and toy cars) into 6000!!!

Jan's God is willing to step in and make miracle Barbies, but he's not willing to feed, clothe and house them. Someone tell Him that he needs to get his priorities in order. Personally, I think they'd have been happier with fishes.

1. *gag*

That's right on up there with the airplane crash survivor who says god protected them. (But obviously didn't care about the dozen people who died.)

2. Jan is obvious

Jan is physically hideous, but that is unimportant. Jan is a fraud. Christ's message is so left behind by this hideous administration. That is what counts here.

[Khephra]

3. Oh, agreed

I have the upmost respect for honest Christians, but how anyone could listen to her and believe her...well, my brain would explode if I understood.

4. People like Jan & Pal are why Jesus

will never come back.

[TrogL]

5. People like Jan & Pal are exactly why Jesus will come back

roaring "what have you done to my Church?"

9. Moneychangers in the Temple.

When you see Jesus on his way to meet these . . . um, "people", make sure he's got his baseball bat with him.

6. Let them eat barbies

I used to watch Jan and Paul when I was in highschool 15 years ago. Yikes! I can't believe they are still at it. I think Jan and Paul's plastic surgery bill could probably feed a small asian country.

7. I was reading up on them a bit now

I guess they're getting the money for their treatments from here:

Jan Crouch Sponsors "Christian Liposuction" Seminar
Report By Jackie Alnor
ã 2000 Eastern Christian Outreach



December 28, 1999

On Tuesday, December 28, on TBN's Behind the Scenes program, Jan Crouch gave a guided tour of the conference room at their new facility in Costa Mesa, California. The room was full of banquet tables and chairs and decorated with red velvet curtains consistent with the decor of all TBN's facilities.

Mrs. Crouch used the time to promote the seminars available to all TBN partners in Southern California, at a cost. The one coming up, said Jan, was a seminar on liposuction given by her own cosmetic surgeon.

12. My Dad is a senior and he calls them the Howdy Doodie hour

I have no idea why he calls them this but he refers to the woman as Clarabelle.

He is a staunch democrat that hate fundies.

13. Clarabelle was the clown on the Howdy Doodie show.

[Lostmessage]

14. Oh OK

I've been weighing up career possibilities and have been undecided between religious conwoman and drag queen - looks like I can do both!
