As Easter approached, the ad ran repeatedly on the Inspiration Network: David Cerullo, clutching a Bible, told viewers they, too, could receive prosperity, physical healing and other blessings God gave the ancient Israelites.

All they had to do, the televangelist said, was send $200 or more.

George Carlin did a GREAT bit on this, if you search his name on youtube it will be the first video. Keep in mind though that it is NSFW and has more than a few F-bombs.

I wasn't aware that Popoff was still around. I haven't heard much about him recently.

Apparently marketing manna bread (hmm) and miracle healing water in the UK now.

Disgusting! Charlatans like this just truly disgust me. I never tire of getting angry when I hear of these charlatans.

Typical obvious false christian stuff, it seems these days the church is only in it for the money.
