"Local Pastor Made Up Elaborate SEAL Tale" by Liz Goodwin - Yahoonews.com

Wait, so apparently there's an epidemic of religious leaders, not just random, insecure nut bags, but actual pastors and stuff who lie about heroic military pasts in order to build their own flock? That's some fucked up shit right there on more levels than my limited mathematical abilities will allow me to count. Case in point, this pastor in Pennsylvania who told everyone he was a former SEAL and, and(!) used details from the Steven Seagal movie Under Siege to bolster his own "war stories." Can't make this stuff up folks. Read on.

p.s. Did you know that Frank Dux, the guy Van Damme played in Bloodsport, was a total fraud. His Kumite trophies were found to be bought from a trophy store less than a mile from his place. Google it (I know, major bummer).

Thanks to Nick
