[MLM Survivors Club] Re: The "Jesus" Twist -- Rant on Religion and MLM's

I am new to this and I joined to learn about current MLMs. I was in
several MLM's when I was in my 20's and of the at least 30 I was
exposed to I have never heard of the big "JC" as a marketing
executive. It is really sick though to use someones belief system to
sucker them into something. If there is an authentic business
opportunity they would not have to hide behind Jesus.
