Charles McVety is a Fraud. He has no academic credentials and did NOT earn a Doctorate Degree of anything anywhere. He was given an “honourary degree” by Richmond College (a religious college in Markham which lost their accreditation with the Ontario Government for offering any degrees) An Honourary degree is NOT academic and certainly doesn’t give you the right to call yourself “Doctor” — yet he fraudulently calls himself “Dr. McVety.” His father, Dr. Elmer McVety (who did earn his doctorate) was the head of Canada Christian College, until his sudden death by tuberculosis (did a lot of missionary work along with Betty, his wife). Betty then became the president of CCC temporarily, until Charles, who taught some classes, was given this position. What did he do? — immediately fired his own mother! And to this day, he has not spoken to her. His wife is equally disturbed and behind a lot of what he does. I guess the only saving grace is that he is in Canada — if he were in the USA he could easily become another Cult leader like Jim Jones, or David Koresh [Branch Dividians] or Charles Manson.

I am an atheist but I consider myself more Christian than this bafoon. He lies, he is intolerant and he is judgmental, traits that I make every effort to avoid, yet he treats them as if they are virtues.

McVety is a cheap grandstanding embarassment to us evangelicals He has no biblical , theological or moral basis for his cheap shots and ignorant statements

What a disgrace to his fathers legacy

The most right wing conservative politician is Harper and he is therefore trying to pull votes from him, foolishly thinking that the NDP and Liberals will help him!!!

Claiming to be educated , he doesn’t know the difference between science and scientism or historcism

Here’s my take on McVety: an complete fake Christian, could be called a “spiritual Bernie Madoff.”

It’s hard work to be and to feel charitable to McVety; he does, after all, tax one’s patience.

I have stopped watching his program because it is so mind-numbingly predictable. Moreover, his circle of friends “guests” on his program has sharply reduced.
The so-called Dr. Rondo Thomas hasn’t been on the program for nearly 2 years and Grant Jeffrey is nowhere to be seen. Yet those people–and many more–figure prominently on the front page of the website. About the only regular now is Frank Dimant of B’nai Brith and that squares with McVety’s views of Israel and the endtimes. About the only other guests is the owner of Sunny Crunch Foods because he’s an advertiser in McVety’s magazine.

It’s hard to believe that anyone would listen to such crackpot-laden rhetoric–particularly since most of what he says is patently false.

His circle of influence is diminishing and he knows it. His broadcast is seen only on a few channels and usually at times for the miscellania of programming–in other words, not prime time.

Nearly every effort to gather media attention has ended in near failure. One year, he asked for one million “righteous” Canadians to go to their MP’s office on Labour Day to protest same-sex marriage or some other thing.
You do remember it don’t you? It wasn’t in all the newspapers but it was too big to ignore but the media did ignore it.

I e-mailed McVety to ask him how does one know if he/she is righteous. He never answered that one.

Another public caper was a demonstration in front of the Royal Ontario Museum to protest the Darwin exhibition. It got some coverage but the most mainstream TV did was show a crowd milling about the entrance to the ROM and gave McVety no mention.

Another time, he was on Parliment Hill with many other evangelicals and he had set up a literature table and alleged that people spat on him. There were no witnesses, of course, other than his own.

He is also a weekly guest on an all-talk and sports radio station in Toronto whose ratings are so low as to be nearly negligible.
He is also an occasional guest on Michael Coren’s program and that’s a program not widely viewed.

What I don’t understand about McVety and Faytene Kryskow et al. is why do they keep pushing themselves to the sidelines then complain about being marginalised?

The logic defeats this writer.

If enough people stop tuning in–even out of curiosity–then maybe he’ll and Kryskow and Coren will all go away and the real Message will come through.
