Instagram account @PreachersNSneakers calls out celebrity church leaders for their expensive footwear and other overpriced designer items. Would you attend church if you knew your pastor wore sneakers that are worth thousands of dollars? Is that what Jesus would have wanted? Let us know in the comments below!
Those are some of the most hideous pieces of clothing and shoes I’ve ever seen. :) They may cost a lot but they sure weren’t designed with class and taste.
So God is a good shoe salesman?
Bet the shoe would be on other foot if you looked at parishioners shoes and clothing.
Maybe the guy with the $850 wool cropped pant with stripe got them on sale as they seem to be high waters (or maybe he’s just expecting a flood).
$20k for an ugly coat?
I will never understand why Americans voluntarily pay money to those charlatans
The real question is why aren’t they all wearing the “Fear of God” shoes
Yeah because we have a monopoly on religious stupidity.
They’re right, stupid people deserve to be stripped of their money, f*ck idiot believers in fake gods. The same people that know the bible by memory, including the following: Exodus 32:4 He took the gold from them, formed it in a mold,and cast an image of a calf; and they said, “These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!” Instead of gold these days Luis Vuitton accessories are being used.
I can’t put into word how offensive I find these so called men of god. I presume they are asking their congregation to pay a tithe.
I bet this is exactly why Jesus died on the cross…
It might have been a good idea to name and shame.
WHAT WOULD JESUS “DON’T” !!! TAX THE CHURCHES…ASAP!!!
“Sex sells”
Apparently religion sells even better.
Honestly, anyone stupid enough to give any of these people money will not be swayed by any facts.
Probably one of the unfunniest posts I have seen on this great site.
LOTS of scriptures in our Bible warm against this. Honestly, I’m not drawn to any of these types, as any kind of godly example…more like repelled. Where, oh where, are the honest, upright and beyond reproach examples of Christian leaders. I’m thinking Billy Graham!!
They wouldn’t live long in the hood.
These guys made Jesus die again – this time of shame!
Degusting pigs, all of them….
As atrocious as all of these examples are, there are hundreds of thousands of churches across the country. For every one of these self-serving jerks, there are thousands of Christians (pastors and laymen) doing amazing things for their fellow man.
In other news, billionaire Oprah interviewed multi-millionaire duchess to complain about how unfair society is to them. People tut-tutted right along with them, without mentioning their unimaginable wealth.
Lesson: People like to tut-tut others.
I think people are allowed to own nice things. But if the preacher is always wearing nice clothing, while preaching about helping the poor… then something is wrong with the preacher.
It’s sickening what these people spend on sneakers and jackets they should be ashamed of themselves and stupid for wearing it while preaching it’s why I don’t believe in organized religion somebody’s always trying to sell something ideas ideologies and can you give me
I wish you named those idiots
I know a few of these ministers and most of the shoes they wear like this have been given to them as gifts from people who attend their church’s. The best way to judge a pastor like this is find out how much money they give away to help the poor and hungry and not by the shoes they wear.
Would like to see names and churches for each pic. Few clues that they are preachers except for those actually holding bibles.
For heaven’s sake, then, don’t take a close look at the Vatican’s possessions. Or its net worth. Which (spoiler alert) makes Bill Gates look like a pauper. Shhhh! Also, howzabout showing some rich religious leafers from other religions? Or is it just (pseudo) Christians that you feel free to shame. Some shame diversity, please!
shocked. shocked i tell you, that this implies that religion bilks the poor. i’m sure jeezuz woulda worn those sneaks if he could, and sipped out of gold goblets, and lived in mahogany lined marble castles. you betcha (wink)
