Tony Alamo Guilty of Taking Girls as Young as 9 Across State Lines for Sex

Tony Alamo, previously known a Bernie Lazar Hoffman is a heap of trouble. Basically, he was found guilty of being an A No. 1 Creep.

There will be some boneheads who look at all of this and blame God for this, but God's not the one at fault here. There's no spin Alamo can put on it, but he still is telling people he's a prophet and being jailed for the gospel.

Hogwash, Tony.

Is there hope? Sure there is, but that will take Alamo actually responding to the real Gospel.

Whack!

Convicted Pastor Says He's 'One of the Prophets'
Pastor convicted of sex abuse says he's 'another one of the prophets that went to jail'
Prosecutors said Alamo could face a total of 175 years in prison over violating the nearly century-old Mann Act, a morality law once aimed at stopping women from being sold into prostitution. Each count also carries possible fines of $250,000.

Whacked yes, not that she has faith, but that she had faith in something obviously awry.

BALTIMORE – A former religious cult member pleaded guilty Monday to starving her 1-year-old son to death after making an unusual deal with prosecutors: If the child is resurrected, her plea will be withdrawn. Ria Ramkissoon, 22, also agreed to testify against four other members of the now-defunct religious group known as 1 Mind Ministries. All four are charged with first-degree murder in the death of Javon Thompson.

According to a statement of facts, the cult members stopped feeding the boy when he refused to say "Amen" after a meal. After Javon died, Ramkissoon sat next to his decomposing body and prayed for his resurrection.

Ramkissoon's attorney, Steven D. Silverman, said Ramkissoon believes the resurrection will occur. She agreed to plead guilty only after prosecutors said they would drop the charges if the child comes back to life, Silverman said.

Whack Job "Lord's Resistance Army" Brutally Murders Church Members

Punk rebels claiming to be working for God hacked up the congregation at a Catholic Church in northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo.

These weak men, armed with weapons call themselves pretentiously, "Lord's Resistance Army." Which lord? Apparently one which hates and kills. This would not be the lord in Heaven, of course, who tells his followers to love their enemies.

This is serious stuff. Hopefully, the authorities will catch these chumps and dump them into prison. Toss in a Bible. Maybe this time, they will read it. Look at Matthew 5:44, boneheads.

Whack!

Ugandan army says rebels kill 45 people in Congo church
KAMPALA (AFP) – The Ugandan army on Sunday accused Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) rebels of hacking to death 45 people in a church in northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo.

An aid official speaking to AFP on condition of anonymity confirmed Friday's massacre, saying the killings took place in a Catholic church in the Doruma area, around 40 kilometres (25 miles) from the Sudanese border.

"There are body parts everywhere. Inside the church, the entrance and in the church compound," the aid official said.

"We got information the rebels cut 45 people into pieces," added army spokesman Captain Chris Magezi.

"They were cut with pangas (machetes) and hit with clubs...

Mary Baker Eddy is Still Dead (So is Madalyn Murray O'Hair)

LOOK FOR MRS. EDDY TO RISE FROM TOMB; Some Christian Scientists Certain She Will Prove Her Power by Resurrection.
December 29, 1910, Thursday

An old article, to be sure, but she still has her followers.

For the record, Madalyn Murray O'Hair seems dead as well, and the news is still out on Jimmy Hoffa.

On an interesting note, O'Hair, who claimed to be a free-thinker, who had started her atheist club on behalf on son Bill, disowned him after he freely converted to Christianity. She said harshly, "One could call this a postnatal abortion on the part of a mother, I guess; I repudiate him entirely and completely for now and all times...he is beyond human forgiveness."

Her murderer is dead too, apparently a man she hired despite knowing he had urinated on his mother.

Whack!
