This seriously has to be WORSE than his dating fiasco!
Who in the hell does he expect to impress with this mess?
As if Jesus would EVER set foot in the IMPROPERLY named "continuing" Church of God!
Exposing the underbelly of Armstrongism in all of its wacky glory! Nothing you read here is made up. What you read here is the up to date face of Herbert W Armstrong's legacy. It's the gritty and dirty behind the scenes look at Armstrongism as you have never seen it before! With all the new crazy self-appointed Chief Overseers, Apostles, Prophets, Pharisees, legalists, and outright liars leading various Churches of God today, it is important to hold these agents of deception accountable.
God would go to the Painful Truth to preach his truth and not to Robert Thiel who cannot produce anything worth a shit..
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell did I just watch? Is he seriously thinking these animations are a gospel witness to younger people? They won't even tune in and if they did they would laugh their asses off the first moment he belches. Some of the redeeming values in this video is there are no crooked bookcases or faded out curtains in view. Plus his arms can't flail about in wild gesturing with his big thick bible.
ReplyDeleteNow some of you may understand better why Mr. Meredith refused to ordain Bob.
ReplyDeleteI made it to 1:35.
ReplyDeleteShould I go on, anyone? What do you think?
Observations:
1) The girl in the video tried. But it was more than obvious she was reading from a script.
2) Bob, bob,... bob. Slow down. Enunciate.
I did not watch any more than that because to be honest, I was grimacing.
I feel like taking a "Behind the Work" video or Armstrong speaking in full power - and immediately cutting - to this. (I won't. But I feel like it.)
It reminds me of this. (For those who might remember.)
1,2 3, 4,5 6, 7,8,9 10, 11, 12 Ladybugs went to the Ladybug Picnic.
Or...
1,2,3, FOUR 5, 6,7,8, 9 TEN, ll 12... Doodededoodeedodooo.....
Or...
We all live in a capital one.
Except those were better produced.

ReplyDeleteWAIT A MINUTE! I hate to toot my own horn here but since nobody else will, I posted in one of the Bitter Bob Thiel topics here on Banned that perhaps "Almost arrested for Sabbath Keeping doubly blessed Elijah Prophet Dr. from a mail order degree mill" Bitter Bob Thiel should play himself as a cartoon character in one of his animated cartoons.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see Bitter Bob is listening to my sound advice. You could be a real hit as a cartoon character Bitter Bob. Just don't think beyond what cartoon characters are and represent to most people (Hint: a joke, funny, laughter, etc.). Congratulations! You have turned the Church of God into a laughing stock!
Next, if you could answer my question as to whether you are a Pastor General or are you a Prophet (because you can't be both) even though Herbert Armstrong taught us there are no Prophets in the end time Church age. A double minded bitter Bob Thiel is unstable in all his ways (James 1:8) - BUT, he makes a damn good cartoon character. Keep us entertained!

Unbelievable. Using cartoons, which would normally appeal to pre-teens, to express ideas which college intellectuals such as history buffs and theology majors would normally discuss. I get it that Rocky and Bullwinkel was a kids cartoon that adults would also get into while listening in the background, but Rocky and Bullwinkel popped! This is deadpan. It's like "Clutch Cargo", "Crusader Rabbit", or "Speed Racer" without the excitement.
ReplyDeleteBob, you haven't made it yet!
The male character is made to look a bit like Bob, so why does he call himself a minister? I thought Bob was a Prophet, not a minister. That accidental double-ordination sure did a lot!
ReplyDeleteNot impressed. Bobby needs to either do "claymation" ala Davey and Goliath, or super- marionette ala the Thunderbirds or Fireball XL5.
ReplyDeleteA thought crossed my mind, perhaps show old movies like they did on Mystery Science Theater and Bob can give quotes and commentary, just like they did on the program!

Bob seems to have a personality flaw that requires him to feel that he is always the smartest guy in the room. This makes him completely unable to accept correction, which means he is completely unable to improve.
ReplyDeleteConnie, I think you are onto something!
ReplyDeleteBitter Bwana Bob could do his own MST3K-style commentary on Reefer Madness and completely upstage LCG's recent lame antics.
Connie,
ReplyDeleteIt has already been done.

Well, some people did say he was quite "animated" with his gestures.
ReplyDeleteThis is probably a reaction to our critiques of his normal presentations. By slipping into animation mode, in one fell swoop, Bob has ridden himself of the uncontrollable hand gestures, the extraneous sound effects, the distracting and unprofessional props and background set, and several other disturbing aspects of his normal youtube videos. In short, this is probably the only way in which he can polish up his act. I'm so happy for Bob, because, it seems as if he has finally come into his own. This is most likely as professional as he will ever become! Just imagine what a gas it might have been if we could suddenly have substituted an animation for one of our Spokesmans Club speeches. We might have even been awarded the "most improved" trophy for that week.

I noticed how the two voices sounded like they weren't in the same room. The women sounded like should was in a room, while Bob sounded like he was in a hall. So amateurish. How can God be in a church with Micky Mouse presentations?
ReplyDeleteI have no words except that I just lost my appetite. I got to 3:35.
ReplyDeleteCrooked bookcases
ReplyDeleteCrappy curtains
Door knobs
Extraneous noises
Bible waving
Arms flailing
And now, Cartoons!
Awesome, as Ron Weinland would say.
whether you are a Pastor General or are you a Prophet
ReplyDeleteOn his Letters to the Brethren Bob signs off as Pastor and Overseer. Perhaps he chose overseer to subtly sneak in the word seer instead of prophet...
Am I supposed to accept the scenario of a young cute blonde girl approaching a complete older male stranger who happens to be reading a bible in a public like park setting to ask of him where to find the true church? And then am I supposed to believe that all of the narrative that follows is any where close to accurate?
ReplyDeleteThese productions of animated cartoons are far below unprofessional in all ways and have nothing in common with God or how HE works in peoples lives.
