Prophet/Overseer Bob Thiel: A TCU Grad? His Intellectual Dishonesty.

The self appointed, unordained, and non-credentialed Overseer of the Continuing Church of God is very subtle in his advertising about himself.  He regularly posts to an online "newspaper" The Examiner where he gives the impression he is a scholar.  A highly educated scholar!

The self appointed prophet is advertising that he has extensive theological education and a Th.D.from TCU.  Most Americans when they see TCU think immediately of Texas Christian University.  Why shouldn't they!  That is what prophet Thiel is hoping for.  Theology and TCU go together and that makes it look impressive on his advertising.  Most people do not realize he got his "theological" education through the discredited baloney of Armstrongism.

Dr. Bob Thiel has studied theology and prophecy for decades, and possesses a Ph.D. (UIU) and a Th.D. (TCU). He has also traveled extensively, and has visited sites of religious interest in Rome, Greece, Central Europe, Asia Minor, Cappadocia, Constantinople (Istanbul), Africa, Asia, North America, and Latin America.

Traveling to biblical sites around the world does not make one a scholar either.  A world traveler, but certainly not a biblical scholar.

Welcome to Nerdvana: Demons, Sumo Wrestlers, Flying Paint, and Nerds, all on God's Holy Pasadena Campus

How appropriate that the Pasadena campus is now being used by another Armstrong! Curtis Armstrong, who played Booger in "Revenge fo the Nerds" is the host of the new TV series King of the Nerds that was filmed on the Pasadena campus.  Sword fighting demons, flying paint, drunken nerds in Ambassador Hall, sumo wrestlers, and more.  It can't get any better than this!  Gooooooooooo Booger! You rock!








Watch the official TBS trailer here for even more great footage.(I could not embed it for some reason)  Herbert is rolling in his grave right now!

I look forward to about 10 years down the line when Nerds 2 is filmed in Edmond, Oklahoma and Nerds 3 will be filmed in Wadsworth.  Oh happy day!

It is my understanding that the prequel to the Nerds is currently being filmed in Arroyo Grande, Ca.
