I heard about them. A group of married men sitting around a campfire getting in touch with themselves....dismissed by the mainstream media as a bunch of "circle jerks".

Very good. Or "a hard man is good to find".

From the link:

Haggard also started what would become New Life Church in his home. Over 22 years, he and his wife, Gayle, grew the church from 20 people meeting in his basement to 14,000 people meeting on a $50 million campus.

Amazing. Hard to imagine that guy, with his goofy energy, would attract that kind of following. Clearly, there is something about people that I don't get.

Amassing wealth through the cultivation and generosity of the faithful is a long honored and time tested business strategy. Imagine if those folks were your "downline" in Amway or Nutralife . . .

Ahhh, You neglected "downlow".....

What part of what Marx said escapes you? "Die Religion ... ist das Opium des Volkes" Opium is addictive and gets you into trouble, does it not? Gets you high and makes it easier for you to do stupid things. And as they say, a sucker is born every day. Also A fool and his money are soon parted.

Reminds me a lot of Waterloo.

Perhaps a group of men with an inclination for the high seas could settle the issue a second time.

My prediction is that he will be successful. I think there was some kind of 'no compete' clause with his former church when they parted ways. It must have expired.
