Wife of Televangelist Benny Hinn Files for Divorce
Source: LA Times

The wife of faith healer and televangelist Benny Hinn has filed for divorce in Orange County Superior Court.

Suzanne Hinn filed her divorce papers Feb. 1, according to the court website. Her attorney, Sorrell Trope, could not be reached for comment Thursday afternoon.

The silver-haired Hinn is one of the world's most financially successful faith healers.

He lives in a multimillon-dollar home near Salt Creek Beach Park in Dana Point. And he has flown around the world in a leased Gulfstream jet to lead his "Miracle Crusades," during which tens of thousands of followers have packed stadiums and auditoriums to hear Hinn preach about the Gospel and God's healing powers.

10. How much do you want to bet, most everything is in the Church's name
and not his. Therefore not eligible for division under community property laws.

5. For only $100k and a monthly gift of $2500, I can pray and heal your marriage.
I'd need that monthly to be a 60 month commitment.

Let me know.

9. Why doesn't he heal amputees?
C'mon, Benny: if you're on the level and can really use divine intervention to heal people, why won't you heal an amputee? Just make a finger grow back. Just one pinky finger, and just once.

18. Maybe no one ever asked?
A $1,000,000,000 contribution (all in advance, please) plus a non-extradition guarantee from the Brazilian
government, and he might make you an appointment (don't wait around if he's late, just pray for divine
re-scheduling).

12. I prayed.
But I just couldn’t silence that little devil in my head telling me that Hinn was one of the most pestilential kind of God-botherer, one who particularly preys upon the sick, the lame, and the mentally deficient.

29. Apparently not all that smart, though
After all, she DID marry one of the biggest hucksters in the Jesus Industry.

28. It's all because of teh gay marriage
We all know Mrs. Hinn would remain happily married if it wasn't for those meddling GLBT people demanding their equal rights.

and now, for the humor impaired...

:sarcasm:
