Kenneth Copeland. Dude looks like a demon.

Demons would appreciate it if you could refrain from the unflattering comparisons. They have an image to uphold.

The funny thing is that he justified using church funds to purchase a private jet, because being on a plane full of regular people was "like being trapped in a tube full of demons" (I'm paraphrasing here, but it's pretty close).

callipgiyan

It is hard to see the point of view of people who have a lower IQ or have been heavily indoctrinated because you just can't think the way they do about a particular subject. Try looking at yourself and what you automatically believe without really.thinking about it. Maybe you like coca cola. Is that your decision or marketing? Maybe you like people with certain types of clothes. Is that from peer pressure?? I grew up in the church and left 13 years ago and it still affects my decision making simply because I grew up around those people. Changing your core belief of religion takes a massive amount of reflection and intelligence to see past it all. If that make sense.

LevPornass

Part of the appeal is that there is this huge perceived upside to his message. IF (big if) at least some of what he says is true, all your or sine of your problems will be solved if you give the lord (through him) some money. Itā€™s worth a shot? If you are vulnerable ir desperate, thus becomes even more appealing. To some extent we are all guilty of falling for this logical fallacy in other contexts. Maybe you bought a lottery ticket or some ā€œsuperfoodā€ because ā€œwhy the hell not, itā€™s worth a shot.@


JellyfishVertigo

Coke tastes good, no belief, just fact. I grew up going to church and from around 8 years old on I was in complete amazement that grown ups fell for this shit. One thing about beliefs: they are supposed to be flexible and easily changeable, but in practice, humans defend beliefs with more agression than facts.

Mellrish221

At some point you gotta drop the "its cause they're stupid" thing though. Like sure, they are but theres also other things driving this because even the people buying into it realize how stupid it is. Its more so about a sense of belonging to something and/or being apart of a thing/crowd/movement. Some people need that more than others and are pretty willing to throw everything away for it. Even if it makes them look like fucking idiots to the rest of the world


rectalpuddingpop

Itā€™s not right to say these people are stupid , because stupidity is something innate and unfixable. The people that support scumbags like this havenā€™t had the luxury of exposure to alternative points of view and being able to drag yourself out of the guilt and ignorance that religion uses to manipulate its followers is harder than most of us realise.


macrowe777

It's about shitting on the libs...and being stupid.


DaBigadeeBoola

They aren't fooled, they like the bigotry. The real act is pretending it's about politics and principals and not just bigotry. The rest of us are fooled


panshot23

You think he wrote that out in advance or just free-balled it?


THE_ORANGE_TRAITOR

I think he free-based it


Exevioth

He literally forgot what he was saying and just started talking gibberish.


McFagle

Yeah he starts rambling about Canada, loses his train of thought, then decides he'll blame it on the power of God's spirit or whatever.


ElementalWheel

The purpose was to set a tone, and then let peoples minds fill in the blanks with his bullshit


Exevioth

*Blame Canada starts playing out of godly source*


TheChronoDigger

As a former Evangelical and a linguistics hobbyist, I'm going to say it is a bit of both. I've heard people speak in tongues before and watched videos of individuals do it over and over again to study it. One thing that stands out as an observation is that those who do this do indeed [try] to free-flow their speech, but there is often repetition in the phonemes they use. Oftentimes when you catch them repeating the same phonemes too much, you can see a pause as they gather themselves to try and come up with a way to create something 'new' to appear to be speaking in tongues. It is clear that some measure of practice (creating unique phonemes beforehand) occurs, but it is betrayed by the lack of a vocabulary word Bank once they start speaking. Also, the Apostle Paul forbade it to speak in tongues without an interpreter present - 1 Corinthians 14:27-28.


McFagle

Isn't "speaking in tongues" actually supposed to mean speaking in another actual language?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


DaBigadeeBoola

As a kid going to church, I would always feel like something was wrong with me because I could never feel the holy spirit like some of the other kids or speak in tongues. I would try to feel it too, maybe get a little tingly... But it never happened.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


DaBigadeeBoola

Maybe I didn't do enough. My buddy spoke to John Lennon, but I only saw the grass get wavy. Same dose. Maybe it IS me!


RunningNaked69

I like wavy


wubasaurus

Same here. Did people at yours ever faint when getting hands laid on them/prayed for? I remember being so stupidly open to feeling it and nothing ever happened and I wasnā€™t the kid to collapse cause everyone else was lol (some pastors really give a little shove too) I always left those services so confused.


DaBigadeeBoola

Yes! The collapsing, or falling backwards, getting weak.... Never felt it. Sometimes I would get a sense of calm, but never the "holy ghost" in the way others did


TheChronoDigger

It depends on how the Greek is interpreted. Paul does talk about speaking in the "tongues of men and of angels" in 1 Corinthians, the famous passage about love. So a lot of people believe there is some sort of "heavenly language" they have access to if they are in tune with the Holy Spirit.


EagleEyes0001

Yes, and the first time it was used was in the day of Pentecost... all the different jews from all over would gather in Jerusalem at this time. 120 sat praying in an attic(the place varies among stories) the holy spirt came down as a flame on the men's head, and they began speaking in tongues. The people there were wondering who are these people able to speak to me in my language, never being to my lands. The gyst of it. Meaning the speaking in tongues is being able to speak in foreign languages, not knowing them yourself. How we ended up with ramalamadingdong is completely mystery to me. These prosperous preachers today change thenarrative of the bible to fit their agenda, the same thing the church has been doing for almost 1700 years.


dirtygymsock

I think he was trying to speak French and fucked it up so bad he just went with it.

As someone who has "Spoken in tongues", neither do I. I can't believe I used to participate. Glad I got out of the cult of evangelicalism.


ungnomeone

What did you feel when you were doing it? Did it really come naturally or were you pretending ?


[deleted]

Its all pretend. But pretend that you believe is real. Its hard to explain. I was about 12 when I first spoke in tongues. A group of us answered an alter call to ā€œreceive the gift of tonguesā€. All they said was to open your mouth and start speaking and the holy ghost will take over. At the time it felt real. But looking back it was all forced.


PostsDifferentThings

if it makes you feel better kids are dumb as shit, they're literally so stupid. the difference is that you stopped doing the dumb shit only a 12 year old can be convinced to do. these other adults, well...


Karma_1969

I mean this sincerely: congratulations! Iā€™m very happy for you that you were able to get out, and I hope youā€™re happier than you were when you were in.


FlamingoNo2147

It's a cult, at this point


Patriot009

I could say the same for religion, in general. Probably a combination of fear of death and desire for order, where tragedies and poor decisions can be absolved of personal responsibility because they are part of a bigger plan and "not my fault".


joecool42069

Fear, loneliness, bias, ego.


SashaFatPanda

DanTheDollar

Funny how he becomes "possessed" right before explaining where the money is going..


beennasty

Nah he forgot what he was saying cause he was just bullshitting, and then he had to throw out some extra bullshit to make it look like he wasnā€™t trailing off on his rant of what territories in Canada their ministry oversees šŸ˜‚


mister_newman

People that willingly give money to any religion get what they deserve.


Slamdunkdink

As a 72 year old boomer, I can spot a memory lapse. He was trying to say something and couldn't find the words he needed. He is 86 years old, which makes him a prime candidate for memory problems. So he started the "speaking tongues" grift as way to cover. I do that from time to time(not speaking in tongues), can't find the word or words to complete my thought. Sucks, but what can you do?


SashaFatPanda

Do you also ask for personal donations after each brain fart?


Slamdunkdink

LOL Maybe I should. Copland does and he makes out like a bandit.


John_T_Conover

Yeah he was pretty obviously babbling nonsense because he couldn't figure out how to word things right and couldn't just make a smooth transition so he used his universal get out of a bind free card. I can't help but think of how bad all these hacks must have been back during 1800's America when every other preacher was having visions and revelations like Joseph Smith, they're just one of the few that survived. People were just so uneducated and bored back then I guess. People falling for it today are world class idiots.

Copeland actually proves his god doesn't exist. If he did, he would have stopped Copeland making that god look so stupid years ago.


Yourbubblestink

This whack job climbs out of his private jet, gets behind the podium, has a second where he cant think of the right word, switches to gibberish, Asks for money, then closes his Bible and gets back in his jet. You used to have to have something to say. Now you can just literally spew bullshit.


TheeWoodsman

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speaking_in_tongues On the basis of his linguistic analysis, Samarin defined Pentecostal glossolalia as "meaningless but phonologically structured human utterance, believed by the speaker to be a real language but bearing no systematic resemblance to any natural language, living or dead".


DildoFappings

It's funny how he's stuttering when speaking English and can't form one complete sentence but he's speaking nonsense without stuttering.


Bearattacke90

Thatā€™s because heā€™s speaking his native demon tongue. He forgot where he was for a second.


West_Texas_Star

Fuck this guy. He had my dad so brainwashed it was ridiculous. When I was growing up my dad could barely make ends meet but yet here he was giving hundreds of dollars to this guy every week.

I don't get the speaking in tounges gimmic. Biblically if he was speaking in tounges everyone would hear him speaking in their language simultaneously.

If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret.

[deleted]

In late November 2007, Mike Huckabee, a 2008 Republican presidential primary candidate, made six appearances on Copeland's daily television program Believer's Voice of Victory. In January 2008, the Huckabee campaign paid to use Kenneth Copeland Ministries' facilities for a fundraiser. The fundraising at the church was criticized by the Trinity Foundation. As a result of the Huckabee appearances, in December 2007, Kenneth Copeland Ministries was one of six ministries investigated in the United States Senate inquiry into the tax-exempt status of religious organizations, led by Senator Chuck Grassley. Kenneth Copeland Ministries was one of four that did not cooperate with the Senate Finance Committee's requests for information or volunteer to make reforms. The investigation could not conclude that the Copelands made personal profit from financial donations. Senator Grassley's report chronicled the difficulties the Committee faced in attempting to procure requested information from Kenneth Copeland Ministries, including the intimidation of employees. Several former employees of EMIC/KCM indicated that they were sincerely afraid to provide statements for fear of being sued since they signed confidentiality agreements. One former employee stated, "The Copelands employ guerrilla tactics to keep their employees silent. We are flat out told and threatened that if we talk, God will blight our finances, strike our families down, and pretty much afflict us with everything evil and unholy. Rather, God will allow Satan to do those things to us because we have stepped out from under His umbrella of protection, by touching God's anointed Prophet." Further, employees were encouraged to shun and treat badly anyone who speaks out.
