Holy Bullshit

Post by SyntaxVorlon »

The church of St. Matthew is offering this any time in your life time chance to get RICH, Quick!
In the mail my residency recieved a get rich quick plan from a church. Dionysis, take me now!!
I went searching on google for 'St. Matthew "Seed Principle" Dumbfucks' And then I had to cut out the dumb fucks as it came up with nothing.

Right well, this bunch proclaims the "God's Divine Seed" Principle, and uses as it's backing a book full of anecdotal evidence. I felt it had to come to your attention. They seem to be Fundamentalists who can't seem to understand the jewish proverb "God will provide, but why does he not provide until he provides?"

They have rejected human action as the motive force behind innovation and progress and suggest that you "pray for" money, success, etc.

Like any fundies, they have rejected the notion that anyone else who isn't like them is of their religion. Protestants, Catholics, and for some reason they included Jews in groups of non-Christians as if that needed restating. "Denominationalism will keep up us out of heaven, blah blah"

I really can't take any more of this.

I see those fools on TV all the time. They say the lord wants you to be financially successful, and the pastors will show you the way, for a gift of 10%.
The most basic assumption about the world is that it does not contradict itself.

I saw some brain-donor asking for $911.00 from everyone in the wake of Sept. 11. It takes balls to demand a specific amount in your love request, it takes a ghoul to to make THAT request.
