From the article....priceless!

quote:
He wears tight shirts that display his weight-lifter arms. He writes books such as "Gladiator, the Strength of a Man," that teach men how to be warriors for God. He says he has a special calling to reach out to men.



"Gladiator, the Strength of a Man" - is that not telling? And a "special calling" to reach out to men? LOL!

quote:
An examination of the nonprofit's tax returns and other documents revealed that the charity provided him with at least a million dollars in salary over four years, and the use of a $1.4 million home and the $350,000 Bentley.

A frequent critic of black preachers (he once said they "major in storefront churches"), Long responded by saying he was a CEO of a global business who deserved his lifestyle.

"You've got to put me on a different scale than the little black preacher sitting over there that's supposed to be just getting by because the people are suffering," Long said, explaining the compensation he received from his charity.



Put you on a different scale? Yes, I'm sure Jesus would be proud of the prosperity gospel and a so-called pastor driving a $350,000 Bentley and living in a $1.4 million home. That's what He was all about.

And my favorite...

quote:
Once, he even boasted to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that some mothers at New Birth trusted him enough to bring their wayward teenage boys to him for paddling.

"When I say bend over, even on Sunday, they bend over," he said, referring to the boys he paddled. "Why? Because they respect me. Because I first died for them ..."



"When I say bend over, even on Sunday, they bend over." I'm sure they do! LOL!

Just another fraud.

Third lawsuit filed against pastor

quote:
A third lawsuit has been filed against Atlanta-based megachurch pastor Eddie Long, alleging coercion, deception and manipulation that involved a sexual relationship with a young male, CNN has learned.

Through a spokesman earlier on Tuesday, Long denied similar allegations in two other lawsuits filed over the past two days.

"We categorically deny the allegations," he said. "It is very unfortunate that someone has taken this course of action. Our law firm will be able to respond once attorneys have had an opportunity to review the lawsuit."

Check out Long's diggins; this guy lives HIGH! How would you like to drive your $350,000 Bentley (Long drives one) up to this palace?

Not so for THIS parasite!

Uno.

I’m gonna bet you recently came from up Nawth.
Am I correct?

Corrupt. Just like everything else "man" touches. You betcha.
It is sad, deplorable. But you know what? It wasn't that way when Jesus left it in care of Peter.
PEOPLE screwed that up.
Greed, lust, sin all that stuff just messed it up. But one can still believe the foundation of the faith without agreeing with the institution of Religion, and the havoc it can play....
The love for Jesus, the Eucharist, all that? Nothing to do with the Vatican. That's in our hearts.
Smiler
she does, b50. certainly does. she's obviously a very good person all the way to the bone. but from the outside looking in, it is exactly the same as a member of the nazi party defending their stances of the good of the socialist republican while disagreeing with the "Final Solution." that person still publicly supports the nazis despite the headlines about the death chambers. it is hard to reconcile the good of vp with the evil of her religion.

If you had an atheist nut cut off the head of a child, are you responsible?


godwin not withstanding, if atheism were a formal institution, yes, id be guilty of associating myself with a horrible organization by complacent and implicit approval of the rules and doctrines associated with that "religion." but atheism is not a region. i have no doctrine or than one of morality. i have no rules other than laws that society insists i adhere to. the only thing we have in common is non belief in invisible men. so if an atheist commited such a horrible act ( as im sure one has), id be guiltless. you do't commit evil because youre thinking too rationally.

buffalo,

Why do atheist care what VP thinks in the first place. UnoBrain is
overly concerned about God? Those who believe in some kind of god
will talk to atheist about the subject, but some of you non believers
are having a heart attack over something you don't believe in the
first place.

Grow Up!!

I can only guess but unobrain is having a hard time accepting the possibility that God despises his filthy hatred of everyone that believes and he thinks the rawer he gets the louder slim &Co. will give him the claps.

His being 95 percent monkey doesn’t help.
Unob, I used to say that religion was a crutch for those not wanting to face reality too. As someone with a fairly high IQ, a strong belief in science, and a firm grip on reality, I don't need a crutch.
BUT...
I have NO DOUBT WHATSOEVER that God is real. How do I know? I'll let YOU try to explain it someday when YOU find out the truth of the matter. HE IS REAL.

I am not interested in converting you. You WILL find out someday. But in the meantime, why don't you stop trying to insult those who already know? You remind me of someone who hasn't been let in on a secret, and is so angry about it that he kicks the ones who know.

All in good time...

No way. it's not the same. I do not support what the child molesting priests did, nor the Vatican's cover up.
Thanks for the compliments, but I assure you I am notsogood...lol....it is a daily struggle.
To reconcile someone's heart with the "evil of religion",
first, separate the institution of religion from the concept of Faith.
What's in my heart is Jesus, the need for reconciliation, the Eucharist, and a desire for everyone to know the incredible blessings therein.I believe all that the Catholic Church teaches. Because of what the Pope says? NO! Because it comes from Jesus. And despite the bureaucratic garbage and horrific scandals, the core doctrine of the Faith remains unscathed.
It's like someone said before- a lousy government doesn't make one ashamed to be American.....
just as a poor bureaucracy/governing of Vatican makes me no less blessed to be Catholic.
Gotta get to the ROOTS of the matter, not the man made junk that gets in the way.

no. not by a long shot unfortunately. but as forest gump would say, if we got rid of that it would be "one less thang.." no one ever committed evil by thinking too rationally.
if i were ruler of earth i would institute mandatory "moral philosophy" in all classrooms in the world as a substitute for the fake garbage heap of religion built on a foundation of vapor.

presume you tithe? then you are complacent in the cover up too.


Ah, well you presume incorrectly. No, when we learned of the cover-up money, etc, we redirected our "tithe" to 2 charities- 1.Doctors without Borders and 2. WorldFood Program.

I am a devout Catholic, Uno, but I do not believe God will fault me for refusing to fund the coverup.

UnoB,

Your're just a marxist communist. Where are the rights for the rest of us?
Your're just another bill gray, but with a hang over.

Why can't the both of you leave people the heii alone. BG and you both are
protecting everybody from christians. Everyone is safe now. OK!

well, is history, economics, math, English, home economics pretty much everything else taught in public schools a 'religion'?

'moral philosophy' is also known as "ethics." it's a branch of philosophy. it can be taught. it does't teach absolute moral values but give people the tools with which to make moral decisions without relying on imaginary friends and bronze age morality.

some are deep subjects for young kids but could be tailored for younger audiences. relax, the nation is far too brainwashed with the blood of jesus for this to happen in my lifetime but i can dream can't i?
