Hi,
I'm new to this message board, but i ran across the most logical, historically accurate documentation ever, as to how the money grabbing got started in churches. If you think the recent 20/20 show called "Enough is Enough" exposed what some of our TV evangelists are doing, wait until you find out how it all got started. Check it out.

Even more absurd is the extent to which some churches have gone to con their members out of money. For example, did you know that the "guy" called "saint" Christopher who lots of people are actually taught to worship, and to even pray to, never actually existed. In fact, according to the church's own official encyclopedia, when they first "invented" him out of thin air in the fourth century, the description they gave their members was that Ole Saint Chris is eighteen feet tall, and has the head of a dog. Think I'm making it up" I really am not. Just wait until you hear (from the church's own official records) how all the money grabbing we see in today's news got started, and the tactics the church used to bilk money out of poor peasants who had almost no money to give.

Then, compare the above to the concoction of Scriptural lies many of today's money grabbing preachers have come up with to get their congregations to continue supporting their multi-million dollar homes and twin engine jet aircraft. There's really not much difference. They've just become better, much smoother liars, to an audience desperate to listen to almost anything.
