Get God, Make Money, Tell Government Off
Benny Hinn, pictured, became the latest super-rich and shady televangelist to tell the Senate Finance Committee to go fuck themselves today and keep their collective noses out of his church's totally clean financial records. A month ago, Finance Committee Ranking Member Chuck Grassley sent Hinn and 6 other creepy dudes a lengthy questionnaire probing their finances to determine whether they were inappropriately enriching themselves through their "nonprofit" religious work. Only one church, Joyce Meyer Ministries, provided the information while Creflo Dollar of World Changers Church International told Grassley to get a subpoena or shove it. Benny wasn't quite so rude, it's just that with Christmas coming he's so busy making money off his parishioners he can't adequately respond until next year. [ Yahoo News ]
