Or slander. I mean, when you state someone is personally under investigation and profiting from a scam...insinuating that they are a part of that scam...

Well, you do appear to have suffered damages, perhaps pain as well.

Maybe you should run start litigation against the op ?

How dare someone try to bring a modicum of levity to an anonymous college sports message board !


The horror !



Oh ohh ....What did Aunt Jemima say when she ran out of pancakes? "Oh, how waffle!"

Sp a grown woman let someone "talk" her into getting a credit card, ran it up, and is now looking for someone to blame besides herself?

I don’t believe for one second Tebow was knowingly scamming people, he’s a genuinely good guy


If you get the chance, volunteer at one of his Night to Shine events. Our church hosts one every year, and it is amazing. It is quite uplifting. In fact, our church has started an entire program for people with special needs because of it, and we have dozens of people show up every week. The next Night to Shine is Feb 12, 2027. Check it out.

Medi Share is the same. Total scam and anyone who pitches you that shite at church should be burned at the stake.

You say that like she was the only victim.

She must have had a huge credit limit to be able to fund all those "Christian" speakers if they were being paid the sums being discussed and she was the only one getting dupped..

If you read OP's headline and thought to yourself, "That OP is pretty funny" while chuckling, you really don't need to be telling anyone to get a sense of humor.

I saw the event advert pop up awhile back and it seemed like a scam, or at best a pyramid scheme. I was surprised Tebow was involved. I don't have a ton of sympathy for people who fell for this.

Prosperity gospel is not biblical.

If SEC Shorts wants to take the next step, they need to bring Tebow in and make an episode ala Wayne Brady on Chappelle's Show

Agree

Christians just need to stick to giving 10% of their earnings to buy immortality and leave it at that.

Pablo Torre looked into Life Surge, spoke with people involved, examined its sales tactics, and reported what he found. That’s an investigation. You assumed I meant a police investigation, then called my headline slander over something it never said. Read it again, dumbass.

I say that like dont be a dumbass. If Nick Saban asked me to open a 25k credit card for speakers Id be like um no unless it was going to the football team.

You are responsible for your own actions. People always try to explain away their stupidity.

tebow has been called out for a while now on how much money he demands and receives from his "ministry". seems like a virtuous fella and all, but every single redneck prosperity gospel "preacher" is just a snake oil salesman and they all justify it because they deserve money because of their "righteousness".

they profess that the Almighty deems them worthy of riches, etc. plant your seed, blah, blah. they prey on redneck and minority communities taking advantage of the needy and those full of their own self-righteousness, vanity and greed.

tebow is a fraud, whether he realizes it or not.

I think that is the theme in regards to Tebow.

If you are going to be involved in a scheme to defraud the elderly and the dense, you should be called out on it.

Don't think that is mutually exclusive to saying that adults should be responsible for their financial decisions.

Yep. And likewise, they hate outspoken Christians likeTebow by default.

I believe I'll trust his word over theirs until it's proven he knowingly scammed people out of their money.
