"The World Trade Center Attack Was Orchestrated By Demons!" (PS: Send Money.) For those of you who, like me, have been wondering what Sideshow Bob had to contribute to the ongoing discussion of the WTC attacks. [more]
Makes me almost want to trade in my first name. What's with the "16th century demon-possessed spiritualist Nostradamus" line? I always thought that Nostradamus was just full of shit, not demon-filled.

I'm sorry, text-filled web pages are not enough. If you haven't already, you really need to hear the man for the full effect. In this program, he's blathering on about Harry Potter. Enjoy.

this comment by bob is creepy - "It’s a time for spiritual militancy."

I love this quote "Are you with me or against me in this effort for Christ?"
I mean, I understand that painting things in black and white had to be done so Bush would be able to answer questions about the situation, but I didn't realize that neutrality to a cause was not an option in pseudo-spirituality now. Is this a trend? Is it a natural cultural development in a digital age?

Bob Larson's exorcism informercials air at 2 a.m. CST Tuesdays on TBN. For those of you who have Tivos, I highly recommend a season pass for this one. The way he abuses the "demons" with his Bible (he calls it "the sword") are sometimes indistinguishable from S&M.
"Smell the sword! SMELL IT!"
The mass hypnosis techniques he uses on his live audience are also fascinating. A must-watch if you like off-beat TV.

From the text: My answer is always the same: “Satan traffics in suffering and human misery.”
So do religious lunatics like Bob and his ilk.

I've always wondered how this type of ministry can distinguish between demon-driven organizations and actions and the holy ones.. Is the WWJD or DWJD wristband the modern version of the necklace of garlic? Do they burn the flesh of the unrighteous?

You do realize this guy is really an animated version of an eliza bot, don't you? Quite unsophisticated, if you ask me. He only has two responses: "Give me money" and "It's the devil!".

The Lord has compelled me to ask for the largest gift you’ve ever shared with this ministry.
Damn! Those demons have emptied my wallet again! When I try to write a check, they grab my hand and send it on the devil's business.
Is there an exorcist in the house?

Why does Bob Larson look like a werewolf in that picture?

I've also been peeved about all the "Scientology Volunteer Minister" shirts that swarmed on the scene immediately after the towers fell. But I just thought it was vile opportunism, I had no idea about the demons.

The lord accepts visa, mastercard, american express, and the discover card, but he doesn't warn you beforehand about the $4.95 shipping and handling charge. What's up with that?

Thanks, tpoh. I don't know how Bob had not found his way into my "Bible Wackos" folder of bookmarks. He is truly a class-A wacko.

Hey bunnyfire,
He makes me uncomfortable and angry. I am saddened when I think about the non-Christians that see him (and about 75% of the other garbage on "Christian" TV) and think he is what most Christians are like.
Here is a good Bob Larson link. Sorry, no direct link, you will have to scroll done a bit.

At least he's back to tackling grownup issues. About 10 years ago his radio show got stuck on targeting teens & rock and roll - he could always find a youngster in distress and milk him or her for an hour or two of radio donations. Just plain wrong.

In the interest of equal time, the Luciferian Liberation Front offers an alternative.
But wouldn't ya know it. It comes down to the same conclusion: SEND MONEY, cash please.
You get a Get Out of Hell Free card, but personally, I carry one from Randy Cassingham and they are cheaper, too.
