I heard a guy on tv this morning who said that "When I say Jesus is God. I mean that Jesus' DNA and God's DNA are the same. Jesus is 1000% God in the flesh."

How about ...
“(T)he feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.” –Pat Robertson
OK ... Maybe not really funny but ....

The "demon" Kenneth Copeland. He said (to the effect) that if you fail to give ten per cent of your income to God that you are cheating God. Then he runs a commercial for you to purchase something from his ministry. Ha! The Bible does not say that we have to give ten per cent of our income to the church or to God. In the Old Testament it talks about tithes being instituted for a brief period, they were imposed on a specific people, and for the building of a specific Temple building. Once the Temple was built there was no longer a requirement on the very same people to give any more tithes! And that was thousands of years ago. Only after Jesus came did churches like the Roman Catholic Church reinstate tithes in order to increase the wealth and power of churches like the Roman Catholic Church. Here is some symbolism of my own for you all. When ever you see a church that requires you to give tithes, note if the building contains any red bricks. Those bricks were made with the blood of people who were struggling financially but still gave ten per cent of their income to their church. It is the blood of elderly widows, and struggling young couples as well as old. And when those same people were in dire straights because of money problems the pastor or priest says, "We'll pray for you." Now here is what you should do. At a church where the pastor or priest says you are supposed to tithe put a plain white envelope in the offering plate instead. In the envelope have a piece of paper inside with this written on it: "This represents a prayer for the financial well-being of the church." Thank You.

OK that is bizarre. I wonder how he got the DNA of Jesus and of God to test it?
I like it when they say natural disasters were sent by God as punishment. As if God would wipe out entire cities in some little hissy fit.

Well I've heard alot of really funny things.
Like Oral Roberts saying God was going to take him to heaven if he didn't get so much money.
That Pat Robertson was going to win the Presidency cuz God told him that.
Jimmy Swaggert crying over his sin of being with a prostitute then got caught a month later with another one.
Just funny stuff out there. Should be on Comedy Central sometimes.

A few years ago, I went to hear one televangelist preach in person. He was the one who claimed that God called him to reach a million souls for God.
His altar call? They came forward, he touched his hand to their forehead and said in an authoritative voice...."Receive Salvation" and pushed them to the floor where they collapsed.
Last I knew, the way to salvation can't be forced upon anyone...you have to choose to accept salvation by making Jesus Christ the lord of your life. Getting slain in the spirit has nothing to do with entry into heaven.
That's the last time I listened to this particular minister preach on TV or otherwise.
EDIT
My personal opinion (judgmental of course) is that many of these so called televangelists may have been called of God at one time, but they have traded God's ministry for THEIR ministry. They've lost sight of what God's ministry is really about. I also think that many of these televangelists are actually influenced by someone very opposed to salvation and that influence is okay with them claiming to be Christian, because it turns people away from Christianity. If you don't believe me, look at how many people are now cynical about Christianity based on how these so-called ministers behave.

I remember one (about 30 years ago) who encouraged those who wanted healing to touch their TV set.
I think it was either Jimmy Swaggart or Reverend Ike, but I'm not sure.
Another (also about 30 years ago) encouraged people to sleep with their Bible under their pillow for one night. The next morning they were to randomly open the Bible and point to a verse. Mail in your problem and the verse that you came up with and they would pray over it and tell you what it means.

hmmmmmmmm........I always thought you had to be real to have dna.
Interesting thought that two things can be 1000% the same.
I like Benny Hinn's thing about having watched a man turn into a snake before his eyes. Did someone slip LSD in his coffee or is he just exaggerating a little bit.
