Benny Hinn and Lord Lobster- A Battle of Good and Tasty
Tonight the skies of Pennsylvania were graced with the presence of the world famous Benny Hinn (http://www.bennyhinn.org). I hope you realized the sarcasm, since there are few Christians in the world that I find more embarrassing than good ol BH. His website boasts a banner that reads "Saving the Lost at Any Cost" and from his preaching he is doing just that. From his support of Israeli occupation to his support of G.W. it is clear that he will seek to save the lost, whatever the cost may be.
And so when I heard Benny Hinn was coming to town I immediately decided to go. I don't think I wanted to go just to critisize and feel self-righteous. I could have done that without going afterall. I really think I was curious what such an event might be like. More than being curious about Benny, I was curious to see the people that would show up for such an event. Would they be poor? Would they be white? Would they be rich evangelicals? There was only one way to find out.
So I began to prepare to go see Benny Hinn. When I went to get tickets on the website, I was forced to fill out some doctrinal belief statement. I guess "any cost" doesn't count for any heathens that plan on actually seeing Benny. And well, of course I was unable to fill out the doctrinal statement with any intergrity, so I got one of my friends to fill it out for me.
With that being done I was ready to go get my soul saved. I quickly jotted down a list of ailments in case I was lucky enough to be chosen at random for healing. My list consisted of everything from my soar back and busted knee, to my lost soul. I also packed a water bottle and first aid kit in case I got slain by the spirit. I heard people get slain, and well I don't know what that means, but it doesn't sound safe.
Unfortunately as I was getting ready to leave I realized that it was lobster night at the house where I live. And I was suddenly left with a difficult decision- get my soul saved at the Hershey Arena, or eat lobster?
The lobster was delicious.
