Joel Osteen Wasn’t Like This…

The list of “The Top 10 Craziest TV Preachers” (with video) is now at Uber.com.

The top three can be found here.

Personally, you’ll get your fix if you watch numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, 9.

Actually, #9 is going to give me nightmares for weeks.

Don’t watch that one.

    #10 Jonathan Bell is patently gay. What attracts gay men to this kind of religion?

    #9: and I thought I’d seen it all—wow!

    #8 Crazy Preacher Girl: tell me that won’t mess with her mind.

    #6 Dr. Gene Scott: this nut and his wife are broadcast locally here every week—what a waste of bandwidth.

    #1 Oh, my God! This is beyond bad, but nothing is worse than Christian contemporary music.

  • Oh, things would have been much better if you had not posted this. Actually things would have been much better if I had not clicked on the links.

    Oh dear, I wish I could forget everything I saw in the last few minutes… You’re right about #9.

    *shudders* the toilet seat preacher was especially disturbing, saying your not a man if you believe in evolution. Have any of these fools ever been commited to an asylum? Seems likely…

  • Vincent

    Hey, I used to watch #4 for kicks.
    I don’t know why they thought it would be funny to put fart sounds over him.
    He was hilarious because he kept “speaking in tongues”. Quite crazy.
    Scary though, because he was always asking people to donate “more money than you can afford.”

    I would have to argue with the swearing minister. His degrading and cursing is very unbecoming, abusive, and a terrible example on MANY levels. If that is being Christian I don’t want anything to do with it. Sorry, but no one calls anyone in my house a house N. That just is not nice and I don’t care if they are Black, White, mixed, or purple. 🙁 Theys gots to go iffin theys do that, IF my younger son doesn’t go crazy on them first. 🙄 Oh I’m so glad I listened to that one while my sons were not here. They would not be happy with the “brotha”. 🙁 He gives a bad example not just to Christians, but to Black people too. I would not want him around my sons even if they are grown and as good as grown. I know a Black minister and he’d be so offended that he’d either be preaching to him or turning his back on him. Either way, he would be very upset by that guy. That’s just not right.

    The rest of them I can just laugh about.

  • Can’t believe I watched all of #9. I kept thinking that she must be about to do something different… a big finish at least.

    Sheesh. You owe me 2 minutes and 44 seconds of my life.

    #2 is a priceless masterpiece. He’s known as Don Vincent aka Spirit of Truth, Reverend X (see wiki for more info)

    The video is best seen unedited. The song in the background is Ice Cube – Bop Gun.

    With Number 10 I immediately thought of Julia Sweeny’s androgynous character Pat. That voice is so feminine I thought this has to be a woman in drag. Either she/he thinks it’s manly to shout or the only microphone they had was the little camera mike.

    I liked number 9. When she first spun around in the chair I cracked up. I hadn’t realized she was sitting down because of the churchy muumuu. The video was so poor her head seemed to de-materialize a couple of times. The monotonous song was so lame it was funny. But when the psychedelic special effects started I was instantly reminded of Goldie Hahn go-go dancing on Rowan and Martin’s Laugh-in, and I fell on the floor. It was a Frankensteinian crazy quilt of free associations including Dany Carvey’s the Church Lady, Woopie Goldberg, my first landlady Mrs. Slutsky, (really her name and she was older than dirt) my high school graduation ceremony, Sammy Davis Jr. doing “Here come de judge” and finally Goldie. My mind felt like an Osterizer.

    I’ll watch the others later. I can only take a couple at a time.

    All I can say is, what were they thinking?
