Eye To Eye With Katie Couric: Reverend Billy (CBS News)

He's even more compelling without the bullhorn. That interview was powerful.  I hope he keeps on going............and more join his church. I know I'm in.

[pretenshush]

He has a good point

[gronker2]

Perhaps if we put Billy's message in our way of thinking, we can pay a lot less credit card interest. The credit card companies are already too wealthy. They have become our masters. It is time to buy our feedom back.

What a fucking loon lol 

[Jane102248]

Love you Rev. Billy and consider me a member of the Church of Stop Shopping. Praise be to no bills!

[carocarocaro33]

He's brilliant. Wish we had someone similar in UK.

[DisintersGroup]

Love you, Billy! Keep up the good work.

Cosmic Joke

[terryprideaux]

CBS has sunk to a new low, by putting him on the news.

[Xakryn]

You love shallow meaningless consumerism?

[binklesworth]

Awesome! He's right on, especially with the last thing he said: "I'd like to think that my job will be done when we have a sustainable economy. "

The economy is a house of cards now, completely dependent on people spending well beyond their means.

Go Rev. Billy!

[truthchannel]

Hes definitely on to something. We really would be happier if we slowed down and looked at what we have rather than wanting more all the time.

[tmotus]

Go reverend Bill go! CHANGELUJA !! Wake up all who think they need to spend more than they have.

[MovieMakingMan]

While the 'REAL' God is blessing Reverend Billy, so many others are worshipping things, their salaries, possessions, but are vacant in their hearts. Our country has become like the "Night of the Living Dead" with people in a trance shopping in malls like pinballs darting from one bumper to another, all caught in maze of glitz, while void of any substance. Nothing of true substance can ever be bought, wallets are empty of spirit. That which comes from one's heart is the most precious gift.

GLOBAL!

[snarkicus]

I'm surprised a major news outlet allowed a "stop consuming" message on the air. I wish he was more cohesive. His shows are much better than TV.

[vulfkhan]

You Go Reverend Billy!

You make Pat Robertson, Billy Graham, and all the others of their ~ICKY ILK~ look like the MORONIC TURDIOTS that they truly are and were!!

[gwenicus]

Yup.  He's high on the good feeling you get when you back away from the product and give someone a real gift instead of a sweatshop tchatchke.
