Missouri sues televangelist Jim Bakker for hawking coronavirus ‘cure’


The Missouri Attorney General’s Office announced Tuesday it was suing Christian televangelist Jim Bakker for promoting a product that claimed to cure coronavirus on his television show, according to the Springfield (Mo.) News-Leader.

Dumb, dumb, dumb.....

All Bakker has to do was say, “if you buy this shit, I will pray over it for God to cure your coronavirus” and he’d be fine.

It is perfectly legal and, in fact, respectable, to get money out of people so that an invisible genie will cure their illnesses. But you can’t sell it in a bottle. He should have just done the same damned thing without the bottle.
