A Tribute to a Fallen Televangelist
I am sure by now everyone is aware of the death of evangelical televangelist Oral Roberts. The man was a legend. He was considered by many to be the father of televangelism and the inspiration for Jerry Falwell and James Dobson.
Last night I wrote my very polite and politically correct perspective on his death on the Examiner. I encourage everyone to check it out and leave some comments there. Today I want to be a little more… dangerous in my perspective. Christians and prudish people may get offended.
The greatest thing about Oral Roberts has got to be his name. How funny is that that the guy’s middle name was Oral and he decided to use that as his first name as if Oral was less embarrassing than Granville. The jokes practically write themselves.
God Missed Oral. God Loves Oral. God Wanted Oral. Did you hear that Oral had a twin sister name Anal? And those are just the easy joke. What are your favorite Oral Roberts jokes? Post them below in the comments section.
But no one tells an Oral Roberts joke better than Oral Roberts himself:
