Maybe because his parents had a reason for it? And he had respect for their decision? Or may because when he was old enough to do it, he had lived with it all his life so why change now?

Yes sir. What you say is true. I remember that. Looks like he never raised the 6 or so million.

At least god gave him plenty of time.

And if you think I'm being nasty.. rest assure - god has
called him home. All is well.:flowers:

I dunno 'bout y'all, but my understanding of basic decorum is that one shouldn't speak so flippantly of the recently departed. But maybe that's just me.

Actually that is just a partial truth. God told him to change some things in his ministry and the way he had been doing things. He said that him and his board said it would cost several million dollars to make that happen So God never told him to get millions of dollars but ultimately that was the price to do it. I saw him on tv several times in the last year and i always liked him.He had lots of integrity even though the press always tried to make him look bad.You can ask Sarah Palin what the press can do to destroy those they don't like.
