STUPID Religious Holy Water

Im so sick of seeing all these american people getting brainwashed by fucking religion. Its sickening. I woke up early this morning, flip on the TV, and I see this info-mercial on thats like,"I was cured from breast cancer, all from Holy Spring Water". I don't understand how these people can believe this bullshit. I hate that fucking gay ass Priest dude I always see TV, I forget his name, but he lies to hundreds of thousands of people just so he can get rich.

What is this world coming too?

I sleazy salesman trying to hock holy water isn't religion. It's just some sleazy guy trying to sell water.

I'm not religious, I'm actually atheist, so I have no vested interest in defending religion, but you gotta realize that the asshats on TV are just businessmen profiting on religion, and not "true" religion.

Televangelists are the biggest pieces of shit ever. Hands down.


But...lately I've been getting pissed off at the growing amount of diet pills that they advertise on tv. I stopped eating fast food and fatty shit and started eating healthy...so far I've lost 12 pounds in about a little under two weeks. People don't need to take dangerous pills to fucking lose weight, just eat right and exercise. Jesus....this country is so fucking pathetic.

Plus, I love how NONE of the pills are FDA approved...yet they can sell them on TV. Imagine seeing a marijuana commerical on TV? I would like be in shock, haha.

your probably thinking of Benny Hinn.

the religious networks usually offer a free gift like a vial of "maricle water" or a "prayer cloth"

pretty much anything so they can get your address and start mailing you a bunch of promotional shit that requests donations or "love offerings"

and they always say that you are sending you money to God and helping carry out his ministry whereas you are actually sending money to the bank account of the doucebag on tv.

i really hate the way they manipulate people into believing this bullshit.

Religion has always been used to for money and power. Men have always played on the fear of death and eternity. It always works. People are looking for a crutch, something to fall back on.

Those diet pills work, but at the cost of having a shitty liver when you get older. Because if you stop taking them, you gain the weight right back. So they take more diet pills. Yea dude, just eat healthy and do regular exersizes and you will be fine. You dont even have to do hard straining exersizes. Just walk! Ride you bike! doesnt take much to be in shape. Ive been eating organic food and lean cuts of meat for about 2 years now, and I will say it was the BEST desicion i made. Yea it gets kinda expensive, but that really isnt a big deal
