The 900 foot Jesus didn't come through for him?

Now that he is at the pearly

Now that he is at the pearly gates, I wonder if he has to make an "Oral" presentation to make his case for getting into heaven?

Well, he didn't get taken by God in '87 because he raised the required cash (bail money) but 2 years later his fiasco dream (City of Faith)  failed anyway and the 900 foot Jesus let him live until now. He also failed to find the cure for cancer Jesus told him he would.

91 years is a long life. He

91 years is a long life. He must've been doing something right, I'll give him that much. Unfortunately, there'll be no pearly gates for this guy, no matter how close to god his money made him feel. You can't take it with you when you go.

Anyone taking bets on when Pat Robertson will kick the bucket? He's getting up there in years as well.

Thank God I'm an atheist.

I think St Peter is about to receive Oral.

Me either. Apparently he did lots of stuff before I was born though.

My favourite memory

My favourite memory associated with Roberts' name is when Oral Roberts University canceled a "healing crusade" in Toronto in 2003. The reason? They didn't want to risk exposing their staff and students to SARS. Oh ye of little faith...

Reality is the graveyard of the gods.

nice.......

 

 

            I'm in favor of his passing. He can join two other 90 + year olds (atheists)  Winston Churchill and George B.Shaw. Those sinners can out talk anyone even Moral Oral.

 

 

            Irony is the total faith all religions have in their particular gods.  i.e.    Lightning rods on their houses of gods, insurence to cover Fire, Theft, &   "acts of god";  auto insurence for their vehicles.  Constant worry about money (the quest for which is the root of  all evil). Why not just ask god for more money, through preyer, rather then bother their own over worked under paid flock. Like get the FLOCK OUT!!!!!

 

 

             Several evangelists have schedualed appearences in the Toronto area only to cancel out. They canceled when they found out the local fire regulations would be enforced, and GTA law didn"t fool around.  That means phoney wheelchair people wouldn't be allowed near the stage, only real wheelchair bound people;  "faith heeling" is,  equal to  'practicing medicin without a licence (a felony) any deaths from faith heeling WILL lead to homicide  charges {negligence causing death} good for 10 yrs to life;   not to mention the law suits - $million$$-.  I might add that American city's have similar laws;  now if you could get the local authoritys to enforce the ordinences we could put an end to this nonsense.

The last name of the

The last name of the allegedly somewhat slutty head cheerleader at my high school was Roberts.

I guess I don't need to tell you what her nickname was.
