He suffered from cardiac arrest that left him in a terrible state. I know how this board feels about televangelists, and he had some controversies earlier in his life. But he's a big name so I thought it deserved a topic here.

I can only say that if his God exists I hope he's judged as he deserves.

You're probably thinking of Kenneth Copeland.

Yeah, Swaggart was pretty generic looking.

Out of sheer boredom, I watched one of his shows once, and dude could play the fuck out of the piano. Even when he was just noodling away, it was music, not just someone playing the notes. Perhaps not surprising since he and his cousins Mickey Gilley and Jerry Lee Lewis all learned from the same teacher.

There was that infamous clip of him crying his eyes out and putting on a show after he got caught. "I have sinned against you, O Lord!" He was pretending to be all contrite like that, and then after, he got caught with prostitutes again and was like, "it's nobody's damn business!! "

Was he the one that had a vision of a seven story high Jesus that was upside down?

I have less kind feelings for Joel Osteen and his prosperity theology and the toxic effects it's had on Christians who think that if you're in a poor financial situation you "must have done something". I hate Joel Osteen.

Yeah. Him and Copeland I think have that theology of like, "if you're in hardship it's because you're not right with God" or some shit. The Bible they're supposedly preaching from even says that everyone will experience hardship, even the most devout.

I remember someone once talking about this, and that another person in the Bible told a person "You have heard of the patience of Job." The writer then said "Consdering what Job went through, this could not have been a comforting allusion." ^_^

What sucks is these types of preachers always make sure they train new generations to replace them so we will never be free of their propaganda

For every old as shit mega church preacher, there are many younger ones in training, ready to do damage to society even after these old ones die off

He was a Trumper, of course, but the funny thing is, Trump made fun of him for that clip back in the day of him crying over his scandal. So even kissing Trump's boots didn't do him any good, lol.
