With 179 responses, the poll for “Creepiest Fundie Pastor” is now coming to a close. It’s no surprise to me that Fred Phelps got as many votes as he did. If I could go back and redo the poll, I’d have allowed voters to select two that way I could have gotten a good idea of a solid #2. As it stands now, the one with the second highest number of votes is only the creepiest to those who did not find Fred Phelps to be the creepiest.
Here are the results.
- Fred Phelps – 47 votes
- Pat Robertson – 41 votes
- Ted Haggard – 29 votes
- Joel Osteen – 23 votes
- Jimmy Swaggart – 12 votes
- Jerry Falwell (the dead one) – 8 votes
- James Dobson – 7 votes
- Rick Warren – 7 votes
- Other – 5 votes
The truly scary thing is that this list was only a select few of the creepy fundamentalist pastors that exist in our world. No poll could ever encompass all of the creepiness, because a new creepy pastor is likely birthed every day. This is especially true in the Quiverfull community.
