I'm glad Jesus has his priorities straight.

Just another ratfuck preacher. Claiming knowledge he doesn't have. Selling same to the great unwashed.

There is a difference between selling and order-taking. He is order taking.

OK ed.

As soon as he cashes a check, he is a sales-puke.

I rest my case.

But thanks for playing. :)

sparks: You're missing the point.

"Order taking" is salesman jargon for not really trying hard enough.

Insofar as control of wealth is more consequential than formal ownership, compare the picayune depredations of Kenneth Copeland with any Roman Catholic Cardinal (let alone their boss), the various C of E honchos in the House of Lords, or even minor leaguers such as the governing body of Jehovah's Witless.

I meant that he does not have to break a sweat to make a sale.

Why do you hate salesman's jargon, Sparks?

It's all about keeping the money flow moving, just like government. Can't siphon forever from a bucket that doesn't get refilled.

That can't be right. That works out about 52.5 million suckers born in the last 100 years. But a sucker born every second would be about 3.15 billion. That I can believe.
