Amway Christian

Did you know that the urban dictionary has a definition for amway christian? It is basically defined as a follower of Christ who believes more in God wanting them to be successful than in following the teachings of Jesus.

On another page of this site, titled Avoid Amway, I said that You will probably hear that Amway is a Christian organization. This will probably lead to people saying that they feel closer to God because of Amway. They will also say that they believe God wants them to succeed and that he has given them Amway to do so.

It was very surprising to me that there actually is a term for that statement called 'Amway Christian.' There is even a parody article out there about how growth in the Amway Christian Fellowship has done nothing but grow since 1998. It's pretty funny.

But why do I care? Why would I want to warn people about something like multi-level marketers using the teachings of Christ, okay... more paul, to twist their desire for their expensive cars and houses on snapshots on the fridge into something acceptable? I really don't think I care that much about it.

But what about how stinking funny it is? How amazingly laugh out loud funny it is to hear someone explain how Amway, and their new Amway friends, have helped them understand more about what God wants for them in their life? It's hilarious!

All the Amway literature, oh and Quixtar, they're both owned by Alticor, talks about how you will work less so that you can spend more time doing those things you love and less time working. If you work your Amway business, you will have more time to stay home with your family, sitting by your pool, wearing a hawaiian shirt with a fruity drink in your hand. Because see, that's what Gawd wants.

So, please, talk to me about Amway, even if you are mad that you came to this site and found out that it's a scam and people are laughing at you. Please mail me about it so that I can laugh more! Tell me about how I don't understand your personal struggle and that you know you are on the right path. Please! Make milk shoot out of my nose!
