Oct 2016

at FB, and ended up in the same place you talk about. Some of these "prophets" on youtube were hysterically funny, but the comments sections were horrifying.

One guy tripped up and lost his place in the script - or as it was supposed to be, his direct line to God, as he was speaking. He actually stopped, held his hand to his ear after he tripped up, and started the line again - and said "I'm just hearing this now" Considering everything he was saying was already supposed to be a live feed from God, it was a hoot.
