Q: What's the difference between...

Post by Hagoth » Sun Jun 20, 2021 9:36 am

...televangelists and LDS leaders?

A: televangelists just want your money. LDS leaders want your money and everything else.

LDS leaders don’t televangelize on Saturday nights anymore?

I suggest that televangelists will at least make some contact with their followers every week. LDS leaders like to get their underlings to demand money as much as possible.

Kenneth Copeland is the wealthiest of the televangelist with a net worth of 300 Million. Mere pikers compared to the Mormon economic empire. The Televangelists spend lavishly on material goods, Mormons know not to flaunt their Church gained riches. Numbered Swiss bank accounts for them.

Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Mormons think because their leaders speak in soft monotone voices what they say is from god. They are put of by the energy other evangelists put into their act. In the end it is the same, promises but no tangible results.

It all boils down to the same thing; the taking of the name of God in vain. That's what I think that commandment refers to, twisting God's name to your own advantage, not to something that might pop out of your mouth when you hit your thumb with a hammer.
