Entry: Three Los Angeles Prophets: Gene Scott, Aimee McPherson & The Amazing Criswell Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/three_los_angeles_prophets_gene_scott_aimee_mcpherson_the_amazing_criswell#6502 Post contents: The account of Dr. Gene Scott's exploits remind me of my arrival in the US in 1979, when I encountered his TV sermon for the first time and was mesmerized by the gullability of his followers. And it put my adoration for the openmindedness of the American people in perspective. As much good as the "everything is possible" attitude of the American psyche can bring, it can also be abused for evil, as we are being shown presently by the president and his neocon handlers. In light of that, Dr. Gene Scott's approach of selling "salvation in life after death" and spending the proceeds on earthly pleasures seems almost charmingly innocent. And, if you ever want to seduce a young lady, start with the romantic setting at the "Inn of the 7th Ray", a good bottle of wine (or two), and talk about your eternal soul that looks for a mate, it works every time.
