1. did jim come to that conclusion while in prison?

Following a 16-month Federal grand jury probe, Bakker was indicted in 1988 on eight counts of mail fraud, 15 counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy.[8][15] In 1989, after a five-week trial which began on August 28 in Charlotte, the jury found him guilty on all 24 counts, and Judge Robert Daniel Potter sentenced him to 45 years in federal prison and a $500,000 fine.

2. Aw, hell, what did we do this time?

These nutball fundie preachers can't seem to figure out why God keeps punishing America with natural disasters. If God wanted Trump to be president and he's God's guy, why would he (God) be sending us hurricanes - especially to states his guy won, like Texas and Florida? Why isn't he sending hurricanes to Massachusetts and Minnesota? God can do anything, right?



And even if God isn't mocked, numpties like Jim Bakker are, and they deserve every bit of it.

3. The President endorsed Nazis just before Harvey hit

Let's not be too hasty to write this off as the demented rantings of a bitter ex-con. Okay, that's long enough; still the demented rantings of a bitter ex-con.

4. Probably not the best idea for him to explore

Texas and Florida went Trump.

5. I like the sound of this Day of Decadence parade. Someone might want to schedule one in front

of the White House, or a certain golf course or maybe a Tower? Or all of them.

6. He's just mad that Jessica won't return his calls anymore.

Weird to think that she traded up in making the switch to Sam Kinison, but there you have it.

7. Perhaps God is not mocked, Mr Bakker, but you certainly are...

and with good reason.

8. The God that keeps tossing hurricanes at red states?

Just checking.

9. So sayeth the man who was convicted on 24 counts fraud and conspiracy.

I'm sorry, but this old conman is long past his sell-by date. He peddled that prosperity theology crap, so the only thing he's worried about is the millions affected by Hurricane Harvey won't be ponying up enough cash to support his preferred lifestyle.

13. Frank Zappa must be rolling in his grave.

The same people he railed against in the 80s are inexplicably still alive and still on TV, yet Zappa is no longer with us. Proof that good people die young and pricks live forever!

10. God hates nazi bigots?

11. Punishment on Texas for voting Trump? California voted Dem. and no earthquake there.

Montana voted Trump and the place has been turned into a virtual hell by wildfires.

12. If this is God's judgement, then fuck your god.

There, I said it.

14. Oh for the love of everything HOLY

Will this turd just get flushed down the crapper? Someone please call a plumber.

15. Rescue Me-Tommy talks about 9/11 and God

[smirkymonkey]

16. Oh, STFU you crooked old hypocrite.

Nobody wants to hear your inane bullshit anymore.
