(36,923 posts)Pat Robertson, KC and their ilk are CBR - Cash Based Religion.
Judas was an early modern day conservative disciple.
Judas got 30 pieces of silver, but just once, for selling Christ.
KC, Pat Robertson, Jim Bakker and their ilk get millions of dollars repeatedly for selling Christ.
Judas was a fool for doing a one-time sale.

(46,351 posts)Sorry to sound a bit cynical, but I've seen far too many of this crooks even go to JAIL, and they get out and go right back to fleecing the flocks.
Jim Bakker is a good example.
Even Jim Jones and Charles Manson STILL have followers!

As long as we have that need inherited in our DNA, charismatic psychopaths will seize the opportunity and say they know what some god or gods want and don't want, build a church or theocratic government and gladly take people's money and/or time in unlimited quantities.
