at least he''''s not telling you to kill all who don''''t believe in him like allah..."

Actually, Allah and Jehovah are the same God - the God of the Israelis, God of the Desert, the one and only God of the Old and New Testaments. It was not God, but Muhammad who said: "...kill the non-believers ..." but ONLY by the narrowest of interpretations as done by Islamic extremists. And those guys are good Muslims the same way David Koresh and Oral Roberts are good Christians.

Jesus, please save us from these Christians! Forgive them, they know not what they do ...

Oh - and before you get all ''''Jesus-y'''' on me - I''''m a Christian. I''''m really tired of people like Roberts and his ilk who take God''''s name in vain. Collecting money and political maneuvering in God''''s name is despicable. Oh, and a BIG commandment violation.

+ report abuse

I hate to break this to you Sparky but "Christian" Conservatives have done as bad or worse than the Muslims. You need to look into the work of the Southern Poverty Law Center and see for yourself what some of our OWN Radical Religious Extremist are about. Sieg Heil and Amen

I heard Lindsay has a mean reacharound and she uses a green prayer cloth and Peter Popoff special spring water.

Not everyone on TV is a scummy soul just the ones with green prayer cloths and Peter Popoff special spring water and Richard and Lindsay.

Isn''t that what the Roman Catholic and Evangelical churches are for in ameriKKKa? You pay them to make you look holy and pious? The name of the game is cover your sins like wrinkles. Like a fat lay in a bikini is really what you look like though.

Well, if you want to cover up what sleaze you are, you have to spend a lot of money on clothes and plastic surgery. So, why shouldn''t you have to pay a lot to make your horrible nation look like the holy good guys? Evangelical ministers are just scummy soul surgeons for ugly souls wanting to look holy.

And for these pseudo christian leaders there is no public accountability! They feed on the ignorance of lots of well intended people, cheat on their trust and nothing happens! This guy belongs in jail. But then there is the separation between state and church. Which means that no matter how much this guy has robbed from a bunch of fanatics that believe in his claim that God talked to him personally, will go around with a wide smile in his face. Come on, please!

When Oral says God spoke to him, are there people who actually believe that?

We shouldn''t we say anything bad or critical about Oral? Why is he so worthy of our respect & admiration?

Woah ! Lindsay likes them young boys ! What next ? Joel Osteen''s wife jackin'' the pool boy ? God help us all. Christians are so very gullible to think these charlatans offer a ticket to heaven.

Thank God for these periodic scandals that help reduce political hegemony.

It was about time the right started having a bunch of these scandals, and here they are. It''s a check and balance when these things happen. It evens the playing field for all political views.

It''s like PTL all over again... I wonder if ORU has a water slide?

He who has ears... let them hear.

Spreading hate??? Not really spreading, there is no law in this country (unlike others) that mandates you to do anything, especially read comments that people have the RIGHT (again, not in all countries) to write

Racism and prejudice of all sorts just dominates the small little minds of both the so-called religious and atheistic nuts. It''s nice to see the amount of time people spend in just one evening spreading hate.

Team Wh*re may star in the show "The Camel Toe Whisperer" Maybe that is where all the money is being fielded to, funding the muslims and jehovahs, and the evangelists are all just a cover to make poor innocent people empty their bank accounts
