45. Hypocrisy is the obvious thing to call them out on, but also the least effective.

They are ready for that one. that fall back (no pun intended) on the "He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone verse. That, and public repentance, and in a few years they are back. Maybe not exactly where they were, but back to grifting and deceiving the most spiritually vulnerable among us.

Case in point Jim Bakker (and his silver solution and his apocalyptic food packages.)

But also Joel Psteen who has never really paid a price though he has been exposed as a fraud multiple times.

We are better off to leave the term hyposciry out and stick t provable criminal charges and service of time in prison.
