Dear Tom,

There are suckers born every minute, as P.T.said. As long as people
continue to send these characters money (as they encourage the belief
that, if one sends them money "to allow their message of 'good news'
to be sent 'to all the world,'" the senders will "go to heaven"),
these people will stay on the air and, in fact, will increase the
number and power of their transmissions. It's a VERY profitable
industry, making money off the least sophisticated people who are
grasping at straws. All religions and religious organizations solicit
money; they have no other way of continuing their existence. Your
local legitimate groups and organizations fulfill a seemingly basic
need in humanity and, therefore, return much to people in exchange for
their money. The so-called "religious" broadcasters do not. They may
send a contributor some worthless trinkets but mostly, if one
contributes, they then ask for more and more and more money. ("Buy
this book, buy that book, buy this item, buy that item, and send me
more money money money!") This allows them to increase their
broadcasts (think about it - it's a pretty pitiful "religion" that
needs constant ADVERTISING to keep itself going!) and, not
incidentally, to allow these broadcasters to have a VERY nice
lifestyle.

What's the answer? Do not listen to these broadcasts and certainly do
not send them even one cent! Your posting here, though "small
potatoes" in comparison to the might of these organizations, is a very
good step. We have to let at least the readers here know of these
fraudulent and inherently evil broadcast organizations.

Thank you for your post. Obviously, I agree with you one hundred
percent.

Joe
