He even said something about being caught in a hotel room with a 16 yo girl...

I had two good friends who went to CH's church.
Sad story.

What SHOULD have been my first question?
If "candy stick" means favorite topic of discussion you would be wrong. My favorite topic of discussion is the PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST. His deity, humanity, teachings, and the riches of his grace to his children.
Having said that, the resurrection and second coming is a major part of the ongoing story of Jesus.
Was there anything wrong with me asking about this mans end time doctrine since it SEEMED to play a big part in his story?

It was pretty funny. I have always loved limos so I got a kick out of getting to see one close up (not to many of them in La. at that time) but thought it was strange a pastor would be riding a limo. I guess he was an early adopter of the prosperity message?

Mike is this where you got the idea that he went into the prosperity message?

Good grief, 14 years old every black sedan looks like limo. 
CC1, I think you suffer from Pentecostal Traumatic Stress Disorder.

His church members seemed very loving and genuine, and being called crazy doesn't sit well with me. I understand that was years ago...but there is something to the saying "Rest in Peace"

Also lot to be said in how people remember history.
