"Mercedes Benz"

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Incidentally, she actually drove a Porsche.

A must have for the traveling televangelist. With that new toy gives him status among televangelical peers: he's arrived.

What a lush fund they live for. A 54M dollar jet, really? Is it a tax write-off? And who truly needs their own jet to get where they're going? With that much money he could build a homeless village, and fund it in perpetuity.

The private jet thing is nice, but flying commercial on airlines from 1st world countries is far safer.

Church says God wants them to have a 2 billion dollar shopping mall.

If JS was alive today, you can bet he'd have a Gulfstream revelation...

That’s not big enough. He would need at least a 707 to bring all of his wives.

It's not much to ask, just a simple cube of the yellow stuff fifteen inches on a side. A ton of gold costs less than that guy's dream private jet and would actually have a religious purpose.

God wants me to stand on the cube and preach His word. This is to show people what heaven is like, where the streets are paved with pure gold.

Please send me cash, gold (or other precious bullion), appreciated stock or ownership of any real estate that you happen to have laying around. God says that the elderly are specifically encouraged to leave me everything in their wills: their kids don't need the money, but I do to buy that righteous block of gold.

Isn't it wonderful? Isn't it marvelous?!

I read this story and roared with laughter...

he warns his flock that the "end times are near," ladies and gentlmen, that it's "not about possessions...." yet wants his fourth (I read somewhere) jet...?

If the end is coming, why have a new plane?

Fools will contribute to his luxury.

Poser. No real christian would own a French jet.

He was interviewed for this story, and said how could he be expected to travel regular airlines with evil people? He needed his own airplane to avoid the appearance of evil.

$54 million worth. What a joke, if people didn't take him so seriously. He's a quack.

I loved the part that Amyjo talked about. He can't fly with the unclean. One of his fellow evangelists was talking to him about it. These people are disgusting!!!

If an omnipotent God really wanted this fool to have the jet, it would happen without anyone having to lift a finger or donate a cent.

I guess this guy has more faith in his gullible followers coughing up the cash than he has in the God he claims to speak for.
