Being a Bishop myself, I'd have to say yes, he did them.
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.
He's almost on the level of Jim Jones. Sounds like he's really running a cult, not a church. He's no more than a pimp in my estimation. All that bullshit about God showing his blessings by allowing his church to buy him 2 Bentleys and a million dollar home. Nucca, please! You can only drive one car at a damn time and while some of your parishioners are probably living hand-to-mouth, you expect them to give 10% of their meager salaries to you so you can live in the lap of luxury. I WISH I WOULD!
The thing that gets me is, when I spend time in Atlanta, I have been to neighborhoods so run down they look like the equivilent of a starving village in South Africa or Tunesia. I was actually trying to capture them on film because it was just remarkable to me. The area immediately surrounding Martin Luther King's old church doesn't even feel safe enough to walk to and from the train or bus stop...and rather than putting money into building up those historic communities, you have all these pimp preachers running around pocketing tithe money?
As a person who works closely with a lot of ministries within my own church (and I am a tithe collector), I'm still stuck on how he got his hands on the money. Maybe it's because live in a bureaucratic country where you have to have a paper stamp or approval for every fart you make with 10 people over your shoulder, but there is no way he got to that money unless he's got somebody on the take right along with him. In my church everything regarding finances is transparent with a church finance meeting showing every receipt accounted for, and you have to get approval from the Treasurer & one of the Board of trustees to be reimbursed for expedentures not directly done by the church (meaning pre-approved and carried out specifically by a Ministry Leader or Governing Council Member). What I wanna know is is, how much is Long's salary, and outside of that, from his expenses, who the hell approved all them trip incidentals and cars and whatnot? That money should be able to be linked back to one signature...or at least a couple of pair of collection hands. I'm surprised the tax folks aren't all over this.
They could be. The IRS isn't going to issue a press release though . . . .not before an arrest.
No need to rush either. Even better, let him file for 2010 and compare to previous years. The discrepancies will be obvious now that he has to try to 'CYA.'
I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think.

I don't know if you heard about it, but there was a press release on Sen. Grassley's request for getting the tax records on certain televangelist like Eddie Long, Creflo Dollar, Joyce Meyer, Paula and Randy White, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland, and Benny Hinn a few years back because of misuse of funds.
I couldn't imagine being some teenaged boy from the projects or ghetto who never had much in his life and felt lost, then all of a sudden comes this hero treating you like a human being and exposing you to the finer things in life. He promises you an education and seems to care about your family. You go on a church trip with your new found father. You're staying at this nice hotel which is like disneyland and then one late night you're in bed trying to sleep and .....you smell soulglow, irish spring, fish grease and the you feel this choke around your neck and you hear the words....FRESH SPERM!!!!
BAM...the devil done ripped yo ass open - and it's just the tip! "Betta not tell nobody but God. It"d kill yo momma."
I guess I could imagine that shit huh.
You know what? You need to go stand yo' ass in the corner. Rhat nah!
Im done! It's time for me to get off this thread and take a nap. I just cain't no mo' !!!

Which sounds like the IRS doing CYA action. That they didn't initiate the inquiry.

Thanks for explaining that. I've often wodered how the finances are handled in these huge churches. It would seem that there would be a comittee to watch the watch committee with all that money involved. And with the parishoners falling all over themsleves treating Eddie like he was God himself, whatever he said was the gospel. All he probably had to do was tell the church what he wanted and they gave it to him or he just outright took it.
What's happening with ole Eddie cane of pain? I hope this thing goes to trial and it's televised. I'd love to see his wig wearing-bicep curling-kiddie nob slobbing ass take the stand and try and justify what he did with those boys. Good grief he makes me sick. All these no good creature preachers gotta go!!!!
You know I read that article on his thoughts about where he thinks a womans place should be and I was through..didnt even need to hear anymore..Im glad Prince stopped that shit too because he was about to get on my good nerve.

He lost me when he compared God's word to 'fresh sperm' - WTF is up with that?
But I have to admit, he puts on a great show. I was doing the 'Cross it Up'.

Well the thing is, I go to a really small church (by American standards) and everything is tightly controlled and people really are on their best behavior....I just assumed that the larger the church, the more you have this one looking over that one's shoulder while somebody is looking over his shoulder... but I guess maybe that isn't the case with this megachurch. Still, I smell complicity somewhere in the mix; there's a trail for how that money is being spent and who's authorizing it with a signature. It has to be that way for them to operate as a non-profit house of worship under tax laws, and for the tax man to be clear of who's who and responsible for what in case there's a situation.

I fell out when he asks, "where my young people at? where my sporty, where my shorty?"
O.K basically what I am hearing is that as a mother I would be stone cold stupid to leave my child alone with any religious folk, good dooby type. NEVER. EVER.
There came a time when the risk of remaining tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Anais Nin.

What it means is that as a mother you must practice discernment in choosing who you leave your kids alone with, regardless of their alleged spiritual walk.

What is this mess? It looks like a holy roller rap concert. Next thing you know he's gonna be hollering, "WHERE MY BITCHES AT?!"
After hearing that young man describe his pain, I have no doubt he was telling the truth.
Never mind that all their stories matched up, and let's not even discuss his fucking muscle shirt MMS messages to these boys.
He did it. He's a sexual and emotional predator that targets young people he can control. He's a fucking monster.
It's funny how the day the story broke, Eddie Long and his lawyer said these guys were lying. Since those pictures surfaced, not a single word from him camp.
This is the same asshole leading anti-gay marches.
We all know that those are the main ones! Raging homo-phobes usually mean they are doin' it to a young man!
