I know that they're out there. But I would like to see Prosperity Preachers be known for their GIVING instead of their GETTING!!!!

The primary mantra I hear most of them say is that the way to prosperity is to give to THEM.

I still say prosperity comes from spending less than you make and being a cheerful, liberal giver! It really is not rocket science.

There are two sides to every story. One side is often a lie.























(Not always, but usually.)






















Is this just a "little" WHITE lie?

Here is your answer

White had wanted Dupree to win, Fruster said this week.

"I was his [White's] poster child for single mothers," Dupree said.

A Miracle - And Some Problems
Early on the day the prizes were to be announced, Fruster notified White that a contest panel had selected the winner of the top prize. It was someone who would qualify for the mortgage.

White said he wanted Dupree to get the house, Fruster recalled, and asked him to talk with the mortgage company.

That afternoon, Fruster said, he told White that Dupree would not qualify for a mortgage. Again, he said, White insisted they make it work.

Church leaders moved forward with the presentation, figuring they would resolve the money issue before move-in day, Fruster said.

On stage, Dupree said she thought she was experiencing a real-life miracle when Fruster deemed her a "brand-new homeowner." The church leaders knew she couldn't qualify for a mortgage, she thought. They must have rewarded her hardship and all her hard work to overcome it, and given her the house.

Don't forget the last part...the kicker for me....they got the price lowered so the church did not have to pay the down payment

The house would not be free to Dupree, but Fruster was trying to help her buy it.

Billed as a $100,000 property, it would cost the winner only $65,000, Fruster said. A mortgage company and builder had worked before the contest to lower the price so the church would not have to provide a down payment, he said.

Dupree didn't qualify for $65,000, but if the church paid about $10,000, she would be in the home today, Fruster said.

"From my perspective, it was a drop in the bucket, a very small amount, considering how big the church is and how much it takes in," Fruster said.

Just a quick note, Martha Stewart was charged with lying about a crime that she wasn't charged with. She was only charged with lying. The governement did not charge her with any white collar crime.

Funny how a person can be convicted for lying about a something that they didn't even do.
