Sister Aimee Semple McPherson on Prohibition (1930's)

Aimee Semple McPherson, while heading to the Holy Land, gives a word on prohibition. Aimee Semple McPherson (October 9, 1890 September 27, 1944), also known as "Sister Aimee" or "Sister," was a Canadian-born evangelist and media sensation in the 1920s and 1930s; she was also the founder of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel and Angelus Temple in Los Angeles. Sister Aimee spent several years, from 1918 to 1922 as an itinerant Pentecostal preacher.
SAY THIS PRAYER: Dear Jesus, I am a sinner and am headed to eternal hell because of my sins. I believe you died on the cross to take away my sins and to take me to heaven. Jesus, I ask you now to come into my heart and take away my sins and give me eternal life. http://www.armyofgod.com

She feigned her own "kidnapping". It set off a nationwide manhunt for her.

It turned out she was hiding in Carmel, CA, with her lover.

Would she be aware having a creature of god hanging aroud her neck, that propably had a dreadful life? Christianity and animal rights are still in conflict with eachother.

She wore a battery with wires running down her arm to pad. She zapped people with a mild current of electricity. This was the holy spirit!  She was a real con artist.
