1. Ack! What a collection of charlatans, crooks and thieves!

That damned John Hagee! You should SEE that behemoth church he has in San Antonio. It's HUGE! Who wants to go sit and be preached about the end of the world? Ugh!

They all suck on ice. They prey on insecure people and suck them dry. x(

Spelling edit.

2. Man, I seriously love this name:

Dr. Creflo Dollar. Kinda' says it all, don't it?

Sounds like the name of a televangelist from a Kurt Vonnegut novel.

3. What about Jack van Impe and the lovely Rexella?

He's got to be one of the looniest, because he can't even hide behind the image of respectability that Robertson and some of the others do.

Billy Graham is likely the most trustworthy of all of them. He's not overly political and despite the Nixon tapes of some of his antisemtic remarks, he otherwise is known to have lived in a fairly ethical manner.

TD Jakes is one of the most entertaining. He sings, he moves around a lot, and he certainly knows his Bible.

4. Robert Tilton is the most consistently entertaining

HADABOSOY! I love the way the Lord speaks to me. Put your hand on the television - MIRACLE POINT OF CONTACT!

5. I didn't get the "Miracle Receptor" gizmo on my TV

I guess I'll just have to suffer

:cry:

7. if you have a seed of faith, and just give a $2000 vow of faith...

I'll send you one with no implied guarentees.

6. Ernest Angely was my favorite...

A televangelist straight from central casting, complete with exaggerated southern drawl (and his pronunciation of JAY-sus), plastic-looking Devo hair and THE ABILITY TO HEAL THE SICK BY THE MERE TOUCH OF HIS HAND...

Praise JAY-sus!

8. He looks like Steed from the "New Avengers"

9. Benny Hinn is always fun to watch

So is the old lady with the eye patch on Channel 21 on Long Island. :D

10. M/R...

Why doesn't she heal that eye?

11. I've talked to Rod Parsely

He's ranked 29th on that site. He called in to my place of employment to order something for his sister. This was about 5-8 years ago, he was not very preacher like at all....he was doing BEVIS & BUTTHEAD impersonations to me over the phone. I swear to God this is true. He runs a church here in central Ohio, the world harvest church. It's quite entertaining to watch on tv every now and then. He's a con artist in my opinion.
