Seriously! Can't they see that they're on there just because they want their money? Why else would they have lavish sets with chairs that look like thrones? Why else would Jan Crouch have enough money to pay for all that make-up and those big, poufy wigs?

I'm not criticizing people for their religious beliefs. I'm criticizing them for their credulousness and their inability to see that the ministers on TBN are on there mainly to make a profit.

The people TBN reaches out to already believe the crap ---- the network simply reinforces it.

There are always going to be what are known as "false prophets." Be thankful that your heart is right with GOD or you would not be able to recognize fakes as the ones who were mentioned. TBN is a religious broadcasting network and not a program.

You mean that the Trinity Broadcasting Network is still on the air after all these years??? LOL! That show was a joke and the people on it should be seriously ashamed of themselves.
I don't watch televsion much anymore except to watch the new Battlestar Galactica.

Although I think that there are some genuine people on TBN, it's guys like Benny Hinn that give a bad name for the whole network.

Unfortunately you see what you want to see. you do not see all the children, families, homeless, and those in need that they have helped in every nearly country of the world. Sharing the Gospel costs money; lots of money.
Now if they took that money and kept it for themselves, it would most definitely be wrong and unacceptable. People are too quick to point a finger based on what they see on the surface, but dont take the time to look at what is really happening.
Are you pointing a finger at Michael Jordan, Donald Trump, or Tiger Woods for having wealth?
Psalms 112: 1 Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in His commandments.
2 His seed shall be mighty on earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 WEALTH AND RICHES shall be in his house, and his righteousness stands forever.
I challenge you, if you can take it, to show me where it says that God wants his people to be poor and not have nice things.

There are some good programs on there. I personally watch EWTN. Any tv station is going to need funds. I'd love to see you spread your word for free on tv. Not gonna happen, sister. And before you condemn a church for placing their message on tv and getting "Make up andn poofy wigs", what would you put on your religious show? What ever you can find, right.

Would you rather they filmed in a store front, with shabby curtains, and rickety furniture ?
Then you could ridicule them for being so cheep, and tacky ! Get over yourself !
If people like the Ministry of TBN, or any other Christian Ministry, it is their business, not yours !

It is one thing to believe in God, everyone need someone or some thing to believe in, but look around you there are so many Jesus Freaks around today, they are as bad as the Muslim's, if you don't believe in their way of thought then your toast as far as they are concerned!

If I were a Christian, I would be embarrassed by that channel most of the time.
I agree with you completely.
