2. Take a cue from Six Feet Under
And release a bunch of people shaped helium filled balloons within eyeshot of the bookstore, and say, "Look! The Rapture has started!"

5. Sadly....
The people in line (going out the door and around the corner) look like they could find a better use for their money than buying his book.

7. A few years ago, 60 Minutes did a piece on him and exposed
him as a con man who was using his 'ministry' funds for personal use.

I guess it doesn't matter to the true believers.

8. He's been exposed a number of times in different media.
There's no accounting for the actions of ignorant, religious masses...........

13. I used to feel kind of sorry
for those suckers people.

Then I decided I was wasting my time. Some of them seem to WANT to be duped.

I always think of the lyrics to "Sweet Dreams Are Made of This" by the Eurhythmics...



Sweet dreams are made of this

Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world
And the seven seas--
Everybody's looking for something.
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused.



some of them do want to be used...what can ya do...

:shrug:

14. Yes, they don't believe the truth, they want to believe in their
saviors. Sad.
