It's Getting Deep

I'm starting a new section listing the bigest piece of **** I've found this week.


The preacher on tv is trying to convince me to send him money. Okay. I expected that. But he's doing so by saying if you send me money, God will take care of all your economic problems. And then he gives examples, which I just have to repeat.

First, he talks about his father, who was a . . . preacher. He is amazed his father was able to raise funds during a depression and around Christmas time. Well statistically, religion is always bigger during a depression. It's called hope.

Then, I kid you not, he begins to add both "The Secret" and "The Power of Positive Thinking". He gives examples of people, all who strangely worked in customer service fields, that had more work because they were nicer. Shock! Amazement! Being nice causes people to like you!

So send him your money, and be nice, and think really hard about what you want, and God will save the economy, no matter what the price of a barrel of oil.

And yes, he did mention the price of oil.
