Selling Used Cars For Jesus Chapter 1


From CBS News:

Senate Panel Probes 6 Top Televangelists
Sen. Charles Grassley Asks Ministries To Turn Over Financial Records Within One Month


Yes Senator, shocking as it may be to you..there is gambling in Casablanca, wrestling is fake, and these people represent the almighty in the same way I am the official spokesman for the New York Yankees. I recall once when I was working writing spots for the wacky "Christian" station in Motown, (I really needed the money..) I was asked to produce a spot for some scumbag car insurance salesman that said: " God wants you to have car insurance..". I told them I would only do it if they could show me where in the book it says that. The Gospel of St. Geico? The people at that station fell into two classes: True Believers, who were fewer in numbers and completely fucking nuts; and the ones I called the wink wink / nudge nudge folks. They would NEVER do anything unethical (wink) they truly believed it all (wink), no they were not there just for the money (nudge); and of course they weren't taking advantage of the poor dummies out there in Coo Coo Land. (nudge nudge, wink wink). I think they had something like 27 used car dealers on the air all of whom promised a true "Christian" deal..whatever that was supposed to mean. HBWJRYO ..How bad would Jesus rip you off? What a bunch of loonies. I lasted about three months, but I may have enough stories to fill a book. We'll see.


Matthew 7:21"Not everyone who says to Me, "Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
