Back in my tequila running-amuck days I would sit down to watch the Bakker goings-on. It was pretty entertaining. I watched Heritage being built from the first brick and nail. I'd watch Jim preach and cry about the government harassing him. I'd watch him pimp the hotel rooms. And I'd talk to the TV, "no, don't cry. You're giving away your power to your enemies. One night, I sat down to write down a check for the required $1,000. Planned to bring in a bunch of Hells Angels, was really going to test their christer program. Only thing that stopped me was that I realized he was overselling. I'd watch ol' Tammy wail those songs and was surprised that her daughter had such a nice voice. I'd watch Jamie Charles sit next to his parents with his little boy wonder but he seemed hip to the game, somehow.
I read Jim's book, "I Was Wrong" and felt such respect for his honesty. Now, Jamie Charles is turning down all that money and being open-minded about everything that the grim fairy tale that the bible is, suggests that he do.
I'm long-time clean and sober and my BS antenna isn't picking up on anything that isn't kosher with Jamie Charles's new gig. He ain't no saint, none of us are, and I think the kid's alright. I personally have no use for religion, but if I did, I'd run with this Bakker kids's present day hustle. One of the few good, honest hustles I've ever seen. You go, Baby!
