Billy Graham for instance, died with 25 mill in the bank. That "special gift" he had must be in the bloodline cause his son has taken over.

Why Do all or most of these people who follow this cult vote Republican? Doesn't that tell you something?

Reminds me of a 20/20 expose I saw back in the 90s.

At a televangelist's headquarters there was a backroom where about 10 people at two tables were opening "prayer gifts," stacking the money and throwing away the letters without reading them. 

For those who don't know what these letters are, an ill person--say the mother of child with cancer--sends in money and a letter asking for special prayers for her child.  Garbage pail was full of said letters.
