This guy is scary, but luckily he just died
Say what you will about Oral Roberts; at least he wasn’t boring. This guy was a pioneering televangelist, who basically invented the idea of scamming people out of their hard earned money on TV. In 1977 he claims he had a vision of a 900 foot tall Jesus urging him to construct a hospital, which he did. He also started a crazy Christian school, and despite the most famous of his graduates being a fictional character (Ned Flanders), it’s still in operation despite having gone massively into debt (having found a generous and obviously pious contributor). He died today, which I regard as stellar news.
In this video you can hear his painful/hilarious opinions about intercourse, including how “wild and crazy” gay sex is. Does anyone else find it slightly ironic that a man named Oral would be so objectionable towards fellatio? Just sayin’.
Spread the outrage

More like “Anal Roberts” , AMIRITE ????
Yeah, not that funnny, sorry.

Honestly, I’m not sure who’s point he proved. The idea of sex being so awesome that you would run through barbed wire just to have it actually made it sound pretty damn hot. I also love the way he pronounced ‘orifices’
I also like how he wanted to edit out the ‘I went to church too, but that didn’t make be queer. Well I wouldn’t buy that 100%’ (~5:00)

“[L]uckily he just died”… wow. I didn’t care for the guy, but that’s harsh.

Christ, this is pure filth! Wash you mouth out Roberts! And who the hell calls their kids “Oral”? An excellent example of the Xtian right producing unconcious self-parody.
Have to agree with Mark though, I did wince a bit when I read that comment, it’s the sort of thing a Theist says. I used to be a Jehovah’s Witness, and was immediately reminded of a similar remark made by our elder to the congregation regarding Freddie Mercury’s death. As an Atheist, the worse fate I wish for anyone is ridicule.

Well, the man did make a living deprecating the minority groups whom he didn’t agree with, so why can’t us minority groups enjoy the fact that he’s no longer alive to deprecate us anymore? It’s just one less douche in the world, after all.

@Zac
Well, because we’re better than him…

What a filthy pervert. That video was extremely creepy. I had to share it, so thanks!

Very very funny, what a nut job.

Keep religion out of schools, government, and my pants.
Who the fuck is this guy to tell me what I can or cannot do with my penis?
Happy he’s dead.
God B-less.

One less con man in the world is always a good thing…

He can say “vagina” but not “penis”? Why is he not able to say “penis”? What would Freud have to say about that?

“There was a faaaaahr that arose in them”
This is so much bullshit, but that old man talking about “entering into the rear” turns me on.
