I respect what you say SirL and it is damned powerful, but the fact is Robertson gets millions of viewers, he can influence elections in some parts of the country and shift a few %age points in the rest, BILLIONS are donated to him, Falwell, Roberts, and the "Jesus" Mafia they have going.
See what puzzles me is every time I talk to a Christian about these televangelists, surprisingly, NOONE claims to follow them, except for my aunt, who was one of Pat's leading people in his animation department in the late 80's early 90's.
So, then the questions of "If noone follows them how and where do they get all this money?" and "If noone is proud enough to say they follow what he (or Falwell, or Roberts, or Angley) says, then shouldn't that say something right there, if you have to hide, lie and deny that fact, then it isn't good for your religious beliefs, is it?"
I don't know, like has been said elsewhere, here on TFP finding followers of these men are probably rare.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
