Rightwing televangelist and demon-spawn Jimmy Swaggart recently died at age 90

Sooner or later they hit bottom, and finally quit. Oft times, they've lost everything to it, but they do eventually quit. It's sad to watch.
That's how it is with addiction. The addict is well aware that he has a serious problem, but the addiction forces him to refuse help, convinces him that everything will be OK when things start turning around, and compels him to continue the same destructive bahvior until he hits bottom, as you so astutely mentioned.
 
A paradox is not reasonable. It's irrational to argue both sides of a paradox.
sometimes there are two good sides to an argument.

there are often two good sides to an argument.

often it's a matter of point of view, and the fact of people being two different people.

welcome to reality, simple-minded idiot.

this might be why you Zionists don't understand the golden rule and are psychotic.

Some addictions, like alcohol, might kill you before you hit bottom. This is true of any of the recreational drugs.
At least with gambling, it doesn't itself kill you, but it might drive you to suicide before you hit bottom.

A message to all on this addictive shit:

Get OFF that addictive shit now, while you are still alive, and before you sacrifice everything to it, including your own life.
A greater ball and chain I have never known. That way lies misery, and an early death. If you need to use a hospital, DO IT.

Arguing against yourself is a fallacy, NoName.

You are suffering from schizophrenia?

Buzzword fallacy. Go back to using Englsh.

No one is defending what he did.

But everyone can repent and move forward.

Of course, if Satan repented, the whole apple cart is overturned.
Which brings up the entire conundrum. Since God is all powerful and all knowing, shouldn't God have known Lucifer would "revolt"? The entire purpose of free will is to have a choice.

How could a slave be free if their only choice is to submit?

Ergo, Lucifer is part of the game. The "bad cop" or, as the Book of Job points out, God's prosecutor. :)
 

Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart, whose massive ministry was toppled by prostitution scandals, dies at 90​

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart, whose multimillion-dollar ministry and huge audience dwindled following his prostitution scandals, has died. He was 90.

The Louisiana native was best known for being a captivating Pentecostal preacher with a massive following before being caught on camera with a prostitute in New Orleans in 1988, one of a string of successful TV preachers brought down in the 1980s and ’90s by sex scandals. He continued preaching for decades, but with a reduced audience.

Swaggart encapsulated his downfall in a tearful 1988 sermon, in which he wept and apologized but made no reference to his connection to a prostitute.

More trouble came in 1991, when police in California detained Swaggart with another prostitute. The evangelist was charged with driving on the wrong side of the road and driving an unregistered Jaguar. His companion, Rosemary Garcia, said Swaggart became nervous when he saw the police car and weaved when he tried to stuff pornographic magazines under a car seat.

Swaggart started a radio show, a magazine, and then moved into television, with outspoken views.

He called Roman Catholicism “a false religion. It is not the Christian way,” and claimed that Jews suffered for thousands of years “because of their rejection of Christ.”

Swaggart’s messages stirred thousands of congregants and millions of TV viewers, making him a household name by the late 1980s. Contributors built Jimmy Swaggart Ministries into a business that made an estimated $142 million in 1986.


The world is a slightly less evil place now.
 
I've never been with a prostitute while running a mega-million congregation against what Christ has said about riches. The whole term Prosperity Christianity is a myth. You might as well have a club for Bigfoot weight loss.
LOL Sadly, it's more common than most Christians would hope.

Prosperity Christianity is antithetical to Christianity.

It's too bad you feel like a slave, Sybil. Your own life choices put you there.
 
They consider indoctrination 'education'.
Correct.
Leftists refer to their indoctrination into mindless regurgitation as "education."
Leftists refer to the independent thinking of conservatives as "mindless regurgitation of talking points."
Leftists have no points other than personal insults, HATRED and obsession over what they have been told to believe Trump said.
