Precisely why you are not serious about the topic at hand. Quit spitting trashy propaganda
Dude, you were proven wrong about BLM by multiple people in this thread. Take the L and move on. It’s ok to say, “I didn’t know, or I wasn’t aware”. You are simply deflecting at this point. The point of the topic at hand, grifters gonna grift. Trump just happens to be really good at it, but he’s not the only that had grifted.
Um what?
Not even close. Again, precisely why you are not even remotely educated regarding the topic. You are simply parroting BS regarding BLM. The fact that you are repeating yourself, without reading the other side tells me what I need to know.
Not to mention, you STILL HAVE YET TO MAKE YOUR CLAIM. the claim you have made so far amounts to “somewhere, out there, some body, from BLM has grifted.” I’ve asked you to be SPECIFIC. to which you have repeatedly ran from the question.
I’ll ask you one more time. Point out an instance of BLM grifting. Then let’s discuss it. No, the gateway shithole doesn’t count as a real source. GSCl wn pointed to a NPR article (but as usually, it refutes his own claim as he never reads what he posts).

This is the example I’ve referred to. I don’t care how they try to spin it. This is excessive.
100% for sure.
Though, isn’t it odd that churches buy property like this, radio stations, broadcasting stations, and call it an investment? Regardless, this chick appears to be a total scam artist.
Weird though, right…that the Build the Wall PAC with Bannon and the two other guys who pleaded guilty to fraud were buying yachts and stuff with the money, but none of these Trumpkins on here expressed the slightest distaste at the actions. Hmmm…
You will find some churches that do this the right way, and then there’s the Joel Osteen’s of the world.
My grandfather was a preacher his entire life, drove a school bus. They had 12 kids, backwoods OK, didn’t have a dime their entire lives. BUT, doesn’t appear to be many of them left. I live in Dallas, so all I see is megachurches everywhere. Where near my grandfather had his church, there is now the Oral Roberts University creating new prosperity con artists by the day
I don’t know enough about this to quantify, but your point stands. IMHO, this prosperity preaching teaches/focuses on everything, but the cross!
I wish I didn’t, but with Tulsa and Dallas on my history, I live in the heart of it. Oral Roberts was one of the earliest prosperity preachers, and from hence, came nearly all of the others from Tilton to Paula White. Roberts, himself, was one of the most transparent con artists, but was in the right place for that con. I recall at one point in the 80s he demanded $1 million by Friday or God would take his soul…when it didn’t work, he said God extended the date and to keep it coming. Total right wing con artist - Fallwell before Fallwell
And I bet they had everything they ever needed. Probably had no use for materialism. Correct me if my vantage point is wrong. I don’t mind rebuking.
Different time, but I think they were happy. The older I get the more I think a quiet place in the country, enough to live on and eat, is much more the way to go than the rat race thing where we’re always fighting for a little more $ for more toys that we don’t use.
Sometimes the simple life is the best life.
