There must be miles of footage on the hypocritical finger-pointing millionaire tele-evangelists & how they misused the tithing's they misappropriated from the gullible.Marketed well--it would not only be a money maker--but also serve as a warning to those future generations how easily they can be deceived by shonky showmen.

Oh, I'm sure it'll come about soon enough. Between Oral Roberts Univ. and these other men....
Edit:
Not of the world - do you even watch the news?

First, I am a Christian. Now, I agree with you on the tele-evangelists that do not believe nor do they teach the Bible in it's complete form. They teach the 10 Commandments that were to the Jews ONLY. They teach love, joy and giving (to them). They try to make people feel good without telling them the truth. They are the reason so many people say eronously to just believe or just accept Jesus as your personal savior and you will be saved. (Nowhere does the Bible teach this hogwash they preach.) So, it boils down to the fact they are almost all liars and thieves. The true ministers of God do not ask for donations over the television. The Bible provides a means of their support without begging strangers.

Never heard of it, but I'll glance at it. Holy Cow, I disagree with you, often, but I have to appreciate your sentence structure! --- hm, I agree with the general point of the trailor. And once again, holy cow, if the movie is more of the same, I disagree with you. I think it is unintentional for the most part but the idea that only one 'decent' opinion can exist, and that nice and 'open minded' people 'must' think in one way, is in fact stiffling to thought, and does permeate colleges. And life thereafter, increasingly, unfortunately. So much for liberty.

There has been a few. One on a child TV evangelists and healer named Marjo. Famous when I was young, and he came out of it and made a documentary to show the absurbity of it all.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING ????????????????
Are you really serious? Are you trying to prove that the statement "Most of the people want to be fooled most of the time" has no truth in it?
I think that your idea might cause even a few to open their eyes so I would suggest you just forget it. Seems you are trying to create waves or maybe rock the boat!!!!!
All I can say is have a good day, smile and P;EASE, let those who want to be fooled to have their day in peace my friend OK.
[Of course its a good thought but are we called to change the world or to help others to see the way out of the world?]

People don't want to hear it.
Targeted documentaries are really only going to piss off the people it offends and stimulate the base that agrees with the opinion.
... although it sounds amazing. I hope someone jumps on it now that Fallwell's dead.

Can we name some for starters?
Like Jim Bakker and Tammy Faye?
Who can forget the grandaddy of 'em all, Rex Humbard?
I looked up Ernest Angeley the other day and was surprised that he is 88 years old. His hair still looks like it is 30!
Then you have Oral Roberts in his tower in Tulsa Oklahoma, and he won't come out of it until his viewers send him a million dollars.
...and I can never forget the face and quivering lips of Jimmy Swaggart.
...and pieces of Benny Hinn make for a good rock video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lvU-DislkI

Probably there's no broad audience that cares. The skeptics always assumed they were phonies and the Christians are saddened they were such sinners and want to leave it at that.

If they were Catholic, there would have been 200 documentaries and 24-hr news reports on it

There are a couple of them out there that I've seen, both very good. I can't remember their names right now, but give me a minute and I'll come back to this question when I remember.
**Not having any look on Google right now, but I'll keep on looking. I remember that one focuses on a fundamentalist (Baptist?) church in Dallas TX.
