Ergun Caner opened himself to his Twitter followers last night and received a bit more negative feedback than he expected.
Keep in mind, Ergun is SUING an SBC pastor for copyright violation over these videos he now claims were faked. It seems Ergun's plan has been to get rid of the evidence and then claim it was all faked. Now, I've posted on this before, but head over there and note how many of those videos have been deleted or have gone dark.
Also, take a look at these videos, these are audio recordings of some of the same videos that have been deleted.
It seems that these memes however really cut to the heart of the issue:
It's amazing that there are people out there still uneducated about this guy and willing to stand up for him even though he's made a mockery of the Gospel and lied to our country's own servicemen following 9/11/2001.
Ergun Caner has been attempting for many years to scrub his record of purposeful exaggeration and outright lies. Before being fired by Liberty University, he hired a reputation-cleansing company that created several spammy blogs and commented on others the same engrish mis-spelled posts.
He has recently taken to having a local lawyer and Facebook pal issue DMCA take-downs of videosof his sermons/testimonies as well as those containing (under fair-use) clips of his videos.
The above video is property of the US Government and was publically distributed. It contains Ergun Caner making several false claims about his life to US Marines destined to fight in the Middle East.
A few Christian bloggers took to posting the actual video files on their own personal servers. Ergun in turn, today, filed lawsuits against them.
Keep in mind, most of these videos were not the property of, nor recorded by Ergun Caner. Their copyright belongs to those who recorded them. This blatant misuse of the DMCA and the suing of Christian brothers should clear up anyone's doubts about Caner's reputation.
