Oral Roberts sounds like the name of a grizzled male prostitute
"if ya want it without the false teeth, it'll be an extra $25, laddie"

So far the best quip I've seen was the Fark headline: "Jesus prepares to receive Oral."

I'm pretty ambivalent about his death.
On the one hand, what I've heard about him indicates that he was as obnoxious and self-righteous as any televangelist, and Lord knows its rare to find saints among them.
On the other, he did try his hand at a couple altruistic projects, one of which resulted in the coolest buildings in Tulsa . Having been to Oklahoma once, I feel qualified in saying that much of it is a dump. (I also have to go back there and am not happy about it, but thats very off topic)

You would think the death of Oral would be a sad thing but this was the worst of the hucksters. He blatantly took advantage of the aged poor with his prayer hankies and God gonna get me if I don't come up with another eight mil to bribe him with. Much worse than Fallwell I say. A faithhealer snake oil podium thumper of the most disgusting sort that preyed on the ignorant with a guile to make you queasy. I never saw his monkey show without wanting to take a shower after.
Good riddance to bad Oral.

I did hear about the 8 million thing.
I mean, the point of Christianity is to imitate Jesus's Love and virtue, right? And is Jesus saying something like that even conceivable?

I vote for either Bob Tilton or Pat Robertson.
