"Kill A Pissant For Jesus!"

Anyone remember Dr. Gene Scott? He's the televangelist who thought the burning bush was a fine south American cigar and spent almost as much time selling '97 Cabernets from his vineyard as he did selling the teachings from the Good Book. He's also the guy you occasionally caught while channel surfing after coming home from a late night at the bar. During the first Gulf War? He wrapped up his entire style of preaching when he screamed to his viewing audience "Nuke 'em in the name of Jesus!"

God this guy was funny. Right up to his death a few months ago.

To read more about the guy who warned those who didn't tithe enough to his cause they "can all look forward to sliding down the slimy chute straight to hell", read this.

And to see what could be the single funniest bit of TV evangelism in the history of Tammy Fae, check this out. The cussing is funny until you realize he's really mad. Then it becomes absolutely hilarious.

Good Lord, what a nut.

Makes you wonder if he was right, or if he ended up on the slimy chute.

Jeff, you can't quite. Who will send me schedule magnets for all Royals games if you go somewhere else? Besides, I think we need to refinance. And Craig, it's not a real Fall Festival if I can't buy a Rambo knife on Main Street and walk through Pizza Hut with the damn thing strapped to my leg.

Not that I ever did that in sixth grade or anything...

FYI: quite = quit when you had five beers over a "working lunch".

Dr. Scott was a mainstay on late night TV for KSNW Channel 3 in Wichita for years, mainly sunday nites. During my freshman year in college (I had two of them actually), he once blasted his loyal followers about not donating money by yelling, "you all can go masturbate in hell!". I could not stop laughing for an hour after hearing that blast. And when he was not blabing his f'd up messages on air, continuous video clips of absolutely stupid trips he made all over the world would be shown. I would bet serious cash that dude cursed out St. Pete when he arrived at the pearly gates. (If he did make it,)
