It's possible that, elsewhere on the net, I am going to be forced to kill someone.

"I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread." (Psalms 37:25) is quite possibly the most repellent and disgusting verse in the entire Bible, Y/Y?

In general, the Prosperity Gospel makes me want to ... well, makes me wish that the people who preach it had to live on food stamps for a month.

Only one month? You're a better person than I am, then.

Food stamps, no actual income because obviously they'd be able to work so not deserving of welfare (that's the first level of welfare screening, right there, I think. And an often inaccurate one.)

I'd call it holier-than-thou greed: greed for "people like us", rather than something essentially personal.

But, alleluia, the children of the Righteous shall not be beggars.

Haven't they heard of Luke 10:25-37

I bet these people would be ready with baulks of timber and nails when the reports of the Second Coming hit Fox News.
