Posts Tagged “Prosperity Gospel”

Yesterday I received a letter from a “very old church (55 years)” promising me joy, peace, health, money, a new car, a new house, and/or healing in family communication. All I have to do is follow their very detailed instructions for praying, which includes kneeling on the included prayer “rug” (actually a 11 x 17 in. piece of paper), and respond to them within 24 hours.

Wait a minute… I smell a scam. Indeed, the ever-vigilant Trinity Foundation is already on to them.

This letter would be incredibly funny if I didn’t know that these people are getting rich by preying on the poor and destitute.
