The Religion Report

Several stories popping off in the religious world...

First up, a Christian group, The Resistance, is asking for Fiddy to be true to his word and retire since he did not outsell Kanye West. Mark Dice, a rep for the group says, "It is time for 50 cent to be a man of his word, and retire. The world will be a better place when this satanic piece of filth retires and stops making music." That's real Christian like. SMH. Anyhoo, the group is encouraging members to leave messages on 50's Myspace asking him to "shun Satan" and live up to his word. I'm no 50 fan, but this was a bit much. For me at least.

Next up, televangelists are under investigation for shady financial practices. According to ajc.com:

"The Rev. Creflo Dollar of World Changers Church in International in College Park said his team of legal experts is reviewing a request for financial records from Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), head of the Senate Finance Committee."

Another Atlantan televangelist, Eddie Long, is also under investigation. They are two among six televangelists throughout the country that are being investigated by the committee.

None of the televangelists are really suspected of any wrong doing, but questions are being asked.

Just for the record, I can't attend any church where the pastor sounds like he has some broads working the streets for him.

What do you think of ALL of this?
