I think the investigation is a good idea as it will get the dishonest ones out Pastors/Spiritual Advisers
of business. It is not a violation of their religious freedom if they are Pepfar Hiv/Aids
conning their followers of their money. I realize that they need the money Politicians
to buy television time, but there are some that use their profits for their Polls
own gain instead of using the money to help other people. Their God is

The report noted how an insider advised the panel of how it was the VoA April 2012
March 2012
organization had their employees "ordained" just so they could exploit the
more …
tax free housing allowance.
What the panel appaers to have missed was how George Bush and Omar
Burleson were able to get the IRS to roll over for their constituents
employed by certain private schools (ACU, Pepperdine, et al) and ever
since such private school employees (e.g., basketball coaches and such)
have been registering as "ministers" so they could exploit the tax free
ministerial housing allowance.
It appears Congress and the President are not going to remedy any of the
housing allowance problems any time soon.
I applaud this investigation. I only wish they used all powers available to
them to truly have an in-depth investigation. As it stands, they were able
to make a few of these crooks show their hand. Men of God should and
must be transparent in all that they do. If not, they are deceivers of God's
people. And who is the arch deceiver? It would appear that is who they
represent. I know from personal experience how they prey on and badger
elderly believers out of their money. My mother has sent these same
clowns under this investigation, $800-$1500 dollars a month for over 23
years; until I put a stop to it.They call her on the phone and send
countless letters asking for money. They are crooks!
yes christians need to expose these shysters for exactly what they are.
