Friday, November 1, 1985 Jesus loves you Nothing is more uplifting and inspir ing than Christian television. Isn't it nice of those screen preachers to spread the word of God to all the sinful scumbags of TV land? Isn't it even nicer that many of those preachers live off the donations they receive? I love Christian TV programs they're the funniest farces on the tube. Forget "The Cosby Show" and "Miami Vice." Shows like "The PTL Club" are imbued with more humor, suspense and drama than any of their secular contenders. There's Jerry Falwell's "Old Time Gospel Hour," as well as touching tour de forces with Billy Graham and Oral Roberts, but "The PTL Club" tops them all. Scott Harrah An entire PTL Christian network on cable is dedicated to saving salacious souls and horrid heathens from Satan 24 hours a day.

If MTV ever begins to bore you, just switch your cable converter to the channel on the left and you can meet these two fine, upstanding Americans. You'll be rocked immediately by a wave of inspiration or regurgitation. Tammy Faye, a cross between Charo and a toy poodle, will cause your sud den hysteria. She'll win you over with her face, a corroded display of glyce rine tears, tarantula-like false eye lashes and every cosmetic available. When she splashes a trickle of glyce rine to her rouge-caked cheek and cries, "We're gonna move that moun tain of sin! Accept the Lord into your heart He loves you, sweethearts. He does!" call the 800 number on the screen and give generously. Don't be tightwads, you sinners Tammy needs your dollars to save souls and also to pay for wigs, vats of foundation and eyelash adhesive.

Poor Jim and Tammy do such great, benevolent things. They recently built a mini-city called Heritage USA that sports a multi-million dollar luxury hotel made with marble. It was con structed as a temple for "God's Love," of course. And Tammy, bless her eyelashes, is such a caring person. Why, she once went to a women's prison to distribute Bibles, God's love and her glycerine tears to convicted hookers and mur derers. "What are you in for, sweetheart?" Tammy asked an 80-year-old inmate, giving her a Bible and a loving kiss. "I murdered a family of six back in 1942, sweetheart," the granny replied, glaring at Tammy. "Oh, you poor dear!" Tammy sobbed, prying her eyelashes apart. "We'll move that mountain of sin and save you from Satan. Jesus loves you, honey He does! Bow your head, dear." Suddenly, the 800 number flashed across the screen. The inmates were thrilled that Tammy showed up to save them and show the virtues of God's love. I'm sure Tammy thought the viewers would be thrilled by her enterprising evangelism Downtown YMCA needs a bus driver and 3 gyrr instructors for elementary P E. program on Wed. after noons starting Nov. 13.

What they preach is hardly "God's love" or evangelism. TV evangelists are hardly represen tatives of religion. Truly religious peo ple practice their beliefs in churches, and their devotions are formed through many years of religious socialization and orientation. Few people with any semblance of a brain are going to be converted by some heavily madcap pseudo-preacher on TV.

Page 11 is sou a church, and they think of these pro grams as a substitute. The "religion" those shows purport edly represent is grotesquely funda mentalist. People like the Bakkers often display their right wing disdain of Jews, gays and liberals, and they are killing off TV evangelism because of this. A group of New York City residents recently petitioned to get "PTL" offthe air on Big Apple stations. They suc ceeded because of the large Jewish and gay populations in Manhattan. The rest of the country evidently is starting to feel the same way, since some of these shows are going under. Entertainment will include folk and belly dancing, a karate demon stration comedy and poetry reading. Tickets for the event are on sale today at a booth in the Nebraska Union for $5.
