He exposes their techniques and explains why ordinary people get 'taken' by these con artists. Perhaps his most famous expose was of Peter Popoff.

Well said. What does Spong say that's useful? Well to me, he provides a platform within which Atheists can participate in church life ;-) Enlighten you... well that's the issue really, you've missed that portion of history by about 200 years.

What does Spong have to say that is AT ALL useful to Christianity? Please enlighten us. Spong is a liberal 'christian' who lacks the intellectual integrity to engage with people of this this website's persuasion. See for example his debate with Dr. James White (www.aomin.org) and White's follow-up commentary. I think it is the charismatics and pentecostals that are vulnerable to Hinn. Very few people in those circles have an form of Biblical literacy in my experience, let alone the ability to think rationally. Hi Gareth.

However I see John Spong to the left of this input box. He actually has some reasonable things to say. He's also not asking you to accept everything he says only consider his thoughts. I'd love to see you link to a publication like the Spong one dedicated to these money grabbing televangelists... Hinn, Haggart etc etc. I'd say your 'flock' is more vunerable to the likes of Hinn, after it all it takes education and intelligence to be taken in by Spong :-) also I have to ask is this: "Sponsored by the Elusive Brethren & Right Wing American Fundamentalists" from your title a joke?
