Wednesday’s Asshat of the Day

Today’s award goes to Bill Keller, the unordained “pastor” and “brains” behind LivePrayer.com. Seems Bill, a convicted felon (insider trading) has decided to open a 9/11 Christian Center near Ground Zero. No problem there – the more, the merrier. But Keller’s ministry is one of hate. He hates gays. He hates Muslims. He hates the President. He hates Oprah. He hates Glenn Beck. Wait, so maybe he isn’t all that bad.

Here’s a clip from Countdown with Keith Olbermann talking about Billy’s Christian Center in NYC:

A real piece of work, if you ask me. His pleas for cash to support his “ministry” and his “Christian Center” smack of the same snake oil Oral Roberts sold to his followers in 1987. If you’re old enough, you might remember Roberts claim that if his followers didn’t send him $8 million for his Oral Roberts University, “G-D was going to call [him] home.”

Keller is not preaching the Gospel of Jesus (yeah, you’re probably thinking what does this Jewish guy know about the Gospel), he is spewing a ministry of hate. And for this and the BS he is giving to his followers, Bill Keller is our Asshat of the Day.

WARNING: If you go to Keller’s website, be forewarned that some of his videos are very graphic.
