The truth about Rev. Ivan Stang

Posted by:: nenslo
Date: Tue, 08 Mar 2005 22:43:23 -0800

--------
First off, Rev. Ivan Stang is not bringing people to "Bob", he is
bringing their money to himself. He gets rich off the desperation of
people and their need to turn to someone when they are in dire straits
physically, spiritually and economically. He feeds off them and lives an
opulent lifestyle.

Rev. Ivan Stang and people like him are vultures. They seduce the sheep
with promises to end suffering and to enrich their followers. So, I
believe that Rev. Ivan Stang is a charlaton but he couldn't do what he
does without the people who follow him wanting what he says he has to
offer. They are being led astray by their own free will. Pray for him
and them.

And your point is?

By the way, it's charlatan.

Pray to whom? And if there IS a someone/THING to pray to in this
situation, do you REALLY want to draw its attention to yourself? Don't
forget about the Headless Jesus. If He'd stayed in His chair, it woulda
been fine, but nope, He stood up too fast and SHLUNKSHOOP, it was over.

You forgot the part about the sexual molestation.

That's why I joined up.

Oh, and any lifestyle that involves doing a radio show
I wouldn't call opulent. Now, if he just did claymation
for weeks on end, that would be opulent.

You would not BELIEVE what the oils in that clay do to one's skin.
Watch "Baby Snakes" and check out the claymator's complexion -- you'll
see what I mean.

I agree with Nenslo. But hey, I don't give a fuck about the lives of the
chickens whose mutilated bodies fill my red-striped paper bucket, so why
should I give a fuck about the sheep? At least Stang doesn't eat them.
They should count their blessings. If I were Stang, I'd be cutting steaks
off them.

Yeah, Stang's hypnotic powers only go so far. They're pretty potent up
to a point, but when mashed up against certain OTHER Styles of
Insaninanity, there is sometimes a mismatchin' heterodyning field what
crops up and knocks 'em both out like perch on a bed of ice at Kroger's
fitch market. When I awoke, I thought about how cold it was, opened one
eye and there was Mrs. Legume, eyeing me from above, poking me with a
stick and saying "Is this bloated fucker dead?" However, she be's a nice
gurl and when she saw I wasn't a stiffer yet, she said "Thanks for
befouling my stick, fatso." Hey, she could have just kicked me in the
head.

eh... living in Cleveland is an opulent lifestyle? Gawd, you must think a
doublewide mobile home is moving on up to the eastside. And the Stangmobile
ain't exactly a Lincoln Continental stretch limo with disco mirror ball.
Sounds like he's lucky if enough money comes in each week that both he and
Wei can supersize their Biggie fries at Wendy's.

... but then you know him better than I.

Sure he's a charlatan (that's ok, I won't be a spelling nazi), but I have
to respect a con man that says "HEY! I'M A CON MAN! BUY MY STUFF!".
B'sides, I happen to LIKE my "Wings 'O Slack" wall clock and my Dobbshead
coffee mug. You just can't find those things at Goodwill.
