Satanic Panic Spotlight:
Rev. Jim Bakker. Founder of the PTL club & network.
The televangelist came into popularity in the 70s & 80s until a scandal involving fraud & an affair in 1987 put his fire out.
After serving time, he reformed the PTL club & returned to Televangelism in 2003, shifting his focus from prosperity gospel to End Times theology & began hawking survival food, gear, & snake oil while claiming "God" speaks to him.
I guess prison drove him crazy & he learned nothing.
@singlemaltgirl Both of my grandmothers particularly loved Oral Roberts, but not my maternal grandfather as he was a Freemason.
My paternal grandfather was Christian, but wasn't a fanatic, and he and I would listen to his blue comedy albums by Redd Foxx, Lawanda Page, & Rudy Ray Moore.
My mother was Christian, but allowed me to practice Paganism, & was supportive of me when I came out as Transgender. She and I would listen to her old Brother Dave Gardner albums.
