subject: Latest donation scam...

Remember when Oral Roberts said if he didn't get the money he wanted in
donations "God" was going to kill him?
(Yes, I know, he died yeasterday.)

Well, here's the latest religious donation scam. "The Devil took my money!"

The worst part, people will actually believe this jackass, and send in
money, including people who can't afford to send their food money.

The Columbus Dispatch reports that Parsley is claiming to be the victim of
a "demonically inspired financial attack":

The Rev. Rod Parsley, megapastor and televangelist, has issued a desperate
plea for money, telling his flock that he is facing a "demonically inspired
financial attack" that is threatening his ministry.

Parsley is asking for donations by Dec. 31, calling that date an
"unavoidable deadline" during an episode of Breakthrough posted yesterday
on www.rodparsley.com . Breakthrough is Parsley's television show.

A message titled "Crisis -- Urgent" on the Web site says ministries such as
Breakthrough and World Harvest Bible College are "in jeopardy."

The headline of the appeal for donations reads: "Will you help me take back
what the devil stole?"
