Also like GCI they seem to still have a loyal sycophantic following, though perhaps not the donors who gave huge gifts toward the Crystal Cathedral/campus who were to be honored through ages by having their names in the Walk of Faith garden on campus (a tacky emulation of the nearby Hollywood Walk of Fame). <br /><br />Stop Press: the Catholics have just announced they have ripped up this hokey waste of space. Too bad, but a lesson to mega donors like those selling homes for Flurry/Pack: these epic follies soon hit the wall. <br />Minimalisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07394978086891772878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52912413020249030.post-13826775154593455192014-07-10T09:42:00.517+12:002014-07-10T09:42:00.517+12:00More money out for no benefit.

A win for entropy and a win for extinction!<br /><br />Besides MinusIQ, warnings should be issued that the material is inappropriate for those of all ages and may lead to fits of anger over misrepresentation of fact; some may experience danger of dying from uncontrollable laughing (as when they mention anything related to British Israelism).<br /><br />A cult religion founded by Herbert Armstrong: Herbert who? Most people wouldn't recognize the name. Herbert Hoover probably has greater name recognition.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52912413020249030.post-45012235028118526202014-07-09T23:32:47.490+12:002014-07-09T23:32:47.490+12:00I don't think that these programs will have mu...I don't think that these programs will have much of an impact. All of the descendants of the Worldwide Church of God have pretty much turned into maintenance organizations for the dwindling number of old timers from the parent church. The world is no longer receptive to this type of message. Even if one of these shows happens to spark some interest among a very limited potential audience, there is so much information on the internet that a quick reference to Google would likely extinguish such interest. I think that even Garner Ted Armstrong would have a hard time selling this stuff in today's world (even if he could start over without all of the baggage of his own misconduct).Miller Jones/Lonnie C Hendrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02865316200703641028noreply@blogger.com
