The host is interviewing BG's daughter, and asked if BG ever doubted his faith, and she said that while that's a question he'd have to answer, she thinks the answer is no, and related this story where BG is out in California with some friends and they're all sitting under a tree, and his friends are reading the bible and saying to each other "Well, that part can't be true, and that part probably didn't happen like that" and so on and so forth. And Billy got up all upset and went to into the woods (?) and that's when he came up with the "Jesus is either a liar, insane, or telling the truth" and he went back out to his friends under the tree and told them no way no how was he questioning the bible, that it was the true word of God, every word of it was written as it happened, and he went forth and became the greatest preacher ever known with the largest head of hair and his friends went on and, as his daughter put it, their lives turned to shambles and they suffered horribly because of their Doubt, while ol' Bill just flourished in life and never had anything bad happen because of his Faith.
And I thought "what a shit ass story". and now it makes sense talking about his old Evangelizing buddy. I bet that's who he's talking about in the "under the tree" story.
And now, I realize, even more, what a hunk of shit that story is and what a fucking liar he is. The "under the tree" thing may have happened in some esoteric, it all started when we were having that conversation under the tree, but it wasn't like "hey guys, I'm gonna go in the woods (???) and talk to god. BRB". And then to have stolen the liar/lunatic/light from someone else.
Fuck that guy. Seriously. I never liked his hair, never liked his voice, never liked that Hee-Haw was pre-empted because of his neverending bullshit in the 80's.
