Another grifter, scam artist, thief, entitled ass. I forgot hypocrite. Exactly when did being a minister become a license to steal? Anyone who became aligned with the religious right in our circle of friends is no longer a friend.

I am sure this was the intention of the generous gift from the donor. That Liberty U. would “sell” it at a discount and then begin paying for/leasing it long into the future - accruing future costs to the University. Isn’t that why donor’s give - in order to make sure costs to the non-profit would increase? (visualize a dramatic eyeroll.)

I don’t know. A personal trainer over here, a pool boy over there. I’m just waiting for the “massage therapist” guy to show up, and this whole sordid story will be complete. Well, except for the insincere tearful breakdown ala Jimmy Swaggert.

As Liberty University accepts financial aid packages funded by the government, I wonder if they’re in violation of any statutes or regulations here?
