“I say, ‘But where are the values without the revenues.’ They say, ‘Well, John, you’re a Philistine and you’re a jerk.’”
“I say, ‘I know I’m a Philistine and a jerk, but I go to church. I have been to every denomination in America and there isn’t one that doesn’t pass the plate. Not one.’”
- LSU System President John Lombardi, pointing out the primacy of money when it comes to delivering higher education.

There are 20,000 to 30,000 Christian denominations in America and I'm sure he hasn't been to them all. No need to lie or add hyperbole to make a reasoned statement.
I wouldn't buy a used car from Lombardi. His radio commercials are as sleazy as it gets. If that's the best the LSU System can find, maybe they deserve to go broke.
