IRS, postal inspectors raid Benny Hinn Ministries

[tenorly]

Federal agents descended on the North Texas headquarters of television evangelist Benny Hinn and took boxes out of the offices.

The search began about 9 a.m. Wednesday at Hinn’s headquarters in the Dallas-Fort Worth suburb of Grapevine, near Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. According to Hinn’s website, he was in Paris.

Lisa Slimak, spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney’s office in Dallas, said she was unable to confirm or deny the existence of an investigation. A message sent to Bennie Hinn Ministries went unanswered.

Hinn was one of six television evangelists investigated by the Senate Finance Committee in 2007. Three years later, the six were cleared of any wrongdoing.

1. Wow, I didn't know these types went to Paris,

I'm sure less sin than in his congregation. God loves hypocrites.

2. Some will frame this as an attack on religion.

Rather than an investigation into a possible crime.

3. There is no racket like the god racket and Hinn is one of the worst racketeers

He extorts crumpled dollar bills from frightened people who don't have enough to eat by telling them they can bribe their way out of hell. This has got to be the worst scam of all of them, it's basically the same scam the RCC was running that caused the uproar of the Protestant Reformation.

I hope Hinn goes down for this and I sincerely hope he's only the first of many. Unfortunately, I don't hold out much hope because god.
