Trinity Broadcast Network under IRS scrutiny

[OperaBuff]

Hard to look at some of these pictures and not cringe. Greed is an awful and ugly thing to behold.

From the news article:

"Two former employees of the world's largest Christian television channel Trinity Broadcasting Network are accusing the non-profit of spending $50 million of its funding on extravagant personal expenses. Among purchases, the network founded by Televangelists Paul and Jan Crouch, is accused of misappropriating its 'charitable assets' toward a $50 million jet, 13 mansions and a $100,000-mobile home for Mrs Crouch's dogs. Their granddaughter, Brittany Koper, 26, recently filed her allegations in court after a brief appointment as the network's chief finance director in July."

You guys act surprised. Looks like some of us learned our lesson in TWI and others are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. Let me clue you in... religion is a fraud preying on the gullible, my friends. Some get caught and some don't.

There seems to be a correlation between too much makeup, phony blonde hair, and televangelists' scandals. Good for the granddaughter for having the guts to expose this one.

I doubt you need any special "spiritual perception" to see through this wacky scam. That sort of "revelation" is "available" to "saints and sinners alike".
