Christian preachers on TV tell us that the Supreme Being can and DID make an entire universe out of noting, in only seven days.
Yet these same preachers tell us that this omnipotent Creator cannot create a simple paper envelope with money inside. They claim that the Creator wants us to send our money to them, and that the important things the Creator wants done, the Creator cannot possibly accomplish without our money.

I would dearly love to hear from people who send money to the TV preachers, explaining why the Creator lacks the power to provide hairspray and cars to these preachers, without your money.

This is hilarious.

Really, it is.

I am a Christian. I have no respect for television evangelists. And you expressed very tidily and humorously one of the main reasons why.

Be thankful for what you have and quit complaining about the things that you or I cannot control. You don't need more money. You need to learn to manage the money you have. If you study the miracles that occur in the Bible you will find that they all required some type of action. Call it a leap of faith if you will. I know of one TV preacher that has done a lot of good with the money that people gave to him in good faith. His name is Oral Roberts. Have you ever heard of Oral Roberts University? Did you know that he later built a hospital that eventually became Cancer Treatment Centers of America. Yes he has collected a lot of money. It has and is being put to good use. Thank the good people who have given money to make this a reality. Be thankful that it's an excellent university. People that go to school there aren't just taught the curriculum that they would normally get. They are taught values like respecting other people as well as themselves. I personally haven't ever given money to preachers on TV. But I certainly wouldn't think it was a bad idea. Is there someone in particular that you would rather me give my money to? Would it be for a higher purpose?

Universe? The Big Bang, around 13 billion years ago, started the universe in 1-trillionth of a second, not seven days.

Well you evil sinner person and hench person of the devil. God does provide hairspray and cars to preachers because he put a little seed of faith in our hypothalamus that makes us give our money to the mega-minister when he says the magic word: It's God's money and you show God how much you love Him by giving God's money back to God, via the collection plate. See how simple that is, God's plan. It's in the Bible.

LOL.. yep... it's not the Creator as you know.. it's the idiots who believe these preachers who are simply actors... seeking to fill their pockets and bank accounts at the expense of the ... Creator!

We should label these preachers "terrorists." What do you think?

Do you really watch and listen to those guys?

I bet you send them money, even though you question the purpose.
