Anybody else see this on tv? This has to be the biggest con I've seen in a long time how do they get away with this haha selling water and calling it miracle water that will make you rich but again how did the Mormon religion get away with it for so long? They sold you nothing and you gave them money for it I think I would take the miracle water right about now. It was just funny watching this guy trying to sell miracle water and be serious about it.

Coincidentally I'm selling balloons filled with "miracle air" for only $39.99 apiece (+ $19.99 shipping and handling).

Inhaling the miracle air will increase one's net worth by 18% or more! Plus, you'll get rid of those unsightly blemishes. Plus, your sexual prowess will be off the charts!

For a starter kit of 20 "Miracle Air" balloons, just send $799.80 (plus $399.80 s/h) to:

Priesthood Springs Trailer Court and Food Mart

What a steal! One question: Can the "miracle air" balloons be filled with smoke and then "inhaled" rectally for faster results?

Yes! And farting smoke makes a great party trick!

But what can compare with the TV commercial selling bits of rock in a cheesy overdone cross! Turn the sound down if you're at work and prepare to see the Light!

I grew up in a town with several natural springs considered holy by the Cheyenne and the Arapahoe. In the Turn of the Century, it was a health mecca for people seeking to escape the filthy air and conditions of the eastern coast. The springs are all free for anyone to drink and take water to make sparkling lemonade or whatever floats your boat.

That huckster assbadger is selling a racket.

Let's just call it an acquired taste.

IDK, Dave, some of the unfiltered tap water I've tasted in places like Denver, Provo, Salt Lake, Durango, Pagosa, and even Colorado Springs makes the spring water seem like champagne in comparison, but I was also spoiled when it came to drinking water from one of the higher water tables in the west. :)

Why don't the priesthood elders in every ward take note of what he does so they can make their own priesthood blessings seem legit and real?

You'd think he'd get some miracle something to fix his face. It looks like the embalming's already been done.

It's like those con-men on tbn that get on everyday preaching the prosperity gospel of sow a little seed and it will come back to you 100 fold. And of course what they are getting at is send them your money. Benny Hinn comes to mind.

Once upon a time I believed water was one of the few things in life that were free.

Until I owned my own home, and pay quarterly for my water bill.

I don't think Matt Damon is selling water in the way you think.

Water shortages and poisoned waters are issues in many countries including our very own USA. People I know and others I don't are doing what they can to make sure people have access to clean drinking water and water they can use for everyday tasks.

I will give you an example: Last year, a mesa near mine was having issues with the tap water coming out as sludgy and brown. Because of various local politics, the pipelines weren't being fixed and these people, mostly elderly and/or the poor, had no access to running water. Think about what your daily life would be if you were poor, elderly, and/or disabled with no access to running water and few assets to obtain clean water to use to drink, wash dishes, laundry, shower, bathe, brush your teeth, cook, etc. We have people living in this condition all over the world, even here in the USA. I hope this clarifies your question.

I can't remember exactly, but there was a show on 20/20 or 48 hours or some similar type of show on some hucksters who were pedaling miracle water for all that ails you. I don't know if this is the same thing, but it sounds similar enough.
