Rod Parsley is just as much of an insane madman as John Hagee. Both of them care about money more than anything else.
Let me tell you something that happened a few years ago after I defeated Paul Crouch and the Trinity Broadcasting Network in court.
I found out that TBN had lied. TBN said that they were capable of reaching the entire audience of people in Iraq while Saddam Hussein was still in charge of the country. This motivated me to donate over $2,000 to TBN, which the specific request that it be used to reach the market Paul Crouch talked about in Iraq. TBN agreed to those terms, and I thought everything was fine.
Well, one day I found out that Saddam Hussein was in complete control of the media in Iraq. I found out that the people in Iraq could not receive satellite signals from TBN. I asked TBN to return my money to me, because they clearly were telling lies. I even provided documentation to prove this. TBN would not listen to me, and the refused to give my money back.
Consequently, I decided to take TBN to court. I brought the documentation to court with me, and I explained what happened. I easily defeated TBN in court. TBN was forced to return all of the money that I donated, because they clearly lied about what it was being used for.
The TBN lawyer who had originally tried to be so friendly saying things like, "Well, brother, just let us use that money for another one of God's purposes," was now saying "The only reason you won was because of that damn unfair judge." Yes, this lawyer who had previously said I was his "brother" was now SWEARING at me, because he was a sore loser!
Now, listen to this.
I had donated about $1,000 to Rod Parsley's World Harvest Church with the exact same conditions that I referred to above.
Once again, I was facing a lawyer who was unwilling to give my money back to me, even though I had absolute proof that I was correct and that the World Harvest Church was wrong! Nevertheless, the lawyer was unwilling to give my money back to me.
As a result, I told the lawyer at Rod Parley's World Harvest Church that I had actually defeated TBN in court. I even provided the legal documentation that proved I won that legal battle and that a precedent had been set. I pointed out that this virtually guaranteed I would win in court, so I asked the lawyer to show some courtesy and save us both some time so that I wouldn't have to go to court, since I was guaranteed to win anyways.
Rod Parsley's lawyer thought this over for a second, and he said, "I could settle out of court with you, but the most we would could afford to give is $300."
I responded by saying, "I could get $1,000 very easily if I go to court. If you don't make a significantly better offer than that, then I will just go to court and get all $1,000, just like I did with TBN when I got over $2,000."
The lawyer then said, "The most I could afford to offer is $500."
...um, I thought that the most he could "afford" to give was $300, but now it is $500???
I didn't want to go to court again, so I talked the guy up to $700. That means he and Rod Parsley and the World Harvest Church CHEATED me out of $300 with their lies and deceptions.
Rod Parsley brags about how he doesn't wear suits from JC Penney (which sells NICE suits). Parsley brags that he wears thousand-dollar Armani suits and has his own personal jet. Well, he didn't get that from "tithes and offerings" he got it from lies and deceptions of people like me!

The main point to be made is no politician should be clammoring for any religious zealot. It should not be part of the political discourse at all!
Two short reasons why:
One Jesus said to pray alone in your closet.
The 1st Amendment.
Any of the TV preachers are only enriching their own coffers and don't give a rat's arse about the people donating.
A typical example is Pat Robertson, trying to heal the sick over the TV, a person donates, thinking they have been cured of their diverticulitis and they suffer the consequences of thinking god has cured them.
I would like to see the slimeball Robertson produce one success stroy of his prayer.
He and his ilk are the lowest form of slime on the face of the earth, like someone who would bilk a little old lady out of her life savings, no different

Pastor John Hagee tells it like it is and he knows the Bible from front to back. Who ever has read the book of Revelation will realize that we are living the last daysand Pastor Hagee preaches what is written in the Bible. Only God can judge everyone of us. Why are people bashing Hagee and especially God? Everyone has their own choice and opinion but we will all face God on Judgement Day eventually.

Haggee has always reminded me of the missing 'art' album sleeve from Pink Floyd's 'Animals'.
Jews are cool. Zionism sucks. Christians want the end of the world (really bad), and are doing all they can to bring it about.
Personally, I'm waiting for 'The King'(like all Rasta do). He's a little heretical Ethiopian of Jewish descent. Should irritate damn near everyone.

Why don't we make a law that Priests, Rabbis,Preachers, Voodoo witch doctors, Mullahas, etc. all leave the US by 2012. Let them finish their business, quit and/or leave the country? Then maybe we can stop the insanity of religious fanaticism, the world has enough, we do not need any of that crap here.
