If you’ve never heard to Kerney Thomas, you’re lucky. The man is all over local stations in the South- especially in Texas. Sometimes when I have nothing better to do at 7AM I admit to watching some of his babbling purely for comedic relief.
Take this clip for example, where he claims to clean a young woman’s body of AIDS.
Sure, it’s funny to watch how gullible some people are on TV, but this clip also has a darker side to it. Obviously the poor girl who called in was in desperate need for help- what if she actually believed the man? Planning to live a long life when you’re dying isn’t great advice at all!
Aside from performing his “healing powers,” Kerney often asks viewers to “sew seeds” or donate to him because those who do will be more blessed. In other words, this guy is a legal scam artist.
