Televangelists

I watch a lot of TV, but that isn't where I prefer to get my religious
training. Unfortunately, I have some acquaintances who feel I am
missing out by not taking advantage of the inspiration available from
televised preachers. I usually let that conversation go about ten
minutes before I start to explain just how I worship and why. It is
about that time that I am generally reminded of faith-based rule #1:

People who want to share their religious views with you almost never
want you to share yours with them.

That's okay. It usually ends the conversation, and I do have some
pretty strong convictions. One of them is complete faith that when
God, who created the entire universe with all of its glories, decides
to deliver a message to humanity, He WILL NOT use, as His messenger, a
person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle.
