Yup. If you want to scam someone, the religious fundamentalists are
the best target.

No kidding...and I can say it's a blessing I was exposed to LD50 doses of that
charlatan Oral Roberts on every *&^%$#@! TV channel available in Tulsa at the
turn of the 1960s, which set me on the path to being the fundamentalist
agnostic I've been my entire adult life.

If I had my life to live over it would be as a minister. I wish I had
known where the real money was 40 years ago.

Maybe so, but even if I had known, I've never had a desire to scam people out
of their money, so it still wouldn't have made a difference to me, aside from
possessing the knowledge. Such are the constraints of honesty.

There is that annoying little problem. But since I am too old to
start over I can cheerfully ignore it. <g>
It would be partly offset by the enjoyment involved.

You'd have to have no conscience at all. I couldn't do it.

I would feel that way except the nuts who would give me money deserve
whatever happened to them. If they had any sense they would not do
it.

I view the religious as having a form of mental illness.

There is no doubt about it. But they are going to give their money to
someone - it might as well be me.
