Bishop Weeks aka Mr Juanita Bynum is Still Indecent and Out of Order

Y'all remember how throughly disgusted I became with Juanita Bynum and her husband Probationer Bishop Tommy "The Hit Man" Weeks when their divorce turned into a tawdry circus-like affair that they foisted upon the American public. Remember how I said I would never write about them ever again? Well, just like all of you who vow to never read this blog ever again in life, I LIED. A WAOD reader couldn't resist sending me THIS tidbit that Bishop Weeks is looking for a new bride:

Weeks will document his effort to open his heart to love again in 10 streaming video “Webisodes” starting next Tuesday on his Web site www.bishopweeks.com. The idea came after Weeks was flooded with thousands of e-mails and letters from people offering advice about what to look for in his third wife. Some even offered to be his wife.

“There are some very adamant women,” says Weeks’ associate, Minister Guy Reeves of Global Destiny. “A lady from Belgium flew all the way here to meet him. She came to the campus. She wanted to be the next Mrs. Weeks like many others who have approached me about their strong desire to be Bishop Weeks’ wife.” Weeks says he is opening his life to his followers so they can get a Christian perspective on dating and coping with the desire for intimacy. “What kind of advice would you give me about the new Mrs. Weeks?” he asks on a Web site promo of the episode. “We will probably find in due time who is that perfect woman for me,” Weeks says. “This time I’m not going to limit it just to the local church … It’s a global ministry. We’ve got to have a global search.” Weeks is still serving probation for an August 2007 attack on Bynum outside an Atlanta area hotel. He was charged with aggravated assault as a first offender and has completed the required community service hours and anger management counseling.Crunk and Disorderly
Taking a page from ESSENCE magazine and Tyler Perry, he is preying upon the Achilles' heel of Black women, the unwavering desire to be married/coupled... to any .man. who. bothers. to ask. Heck they don't even have to ask, Black women just have to HOPE that they MAY think about asking one day. This false prophet has decided to launch a contest called "Who Will be the next Mrs. Weeks?" In fact they have a logo. You can email MRSWEEKS@bishopweeks.com if you are interested. The sad thing is that women will be lining up to marry this man despite the fact that he had to plead guilty to handing out a beat down to his wife in a parking lot. Threw her out of a car, tried to destroy her entire career and then had the audacity to write about it and then "withdrew" his book. Yes, she flung her own share of dirt and acted ridiculously as well with her threshing floor and $10,000 pens. Now the Bible scholar in me has just thought up about fifteen different reasons why this is five kinds of wrong. Including his pride in being a "global entrepreneur" Oh yeah and all you bloggers who need a new template, the good Bishop is into web designing now according to his video introduction. If you want to be throughly disgusted listen to them ( the Bishop and his teenage staffers) as they talk about the age minimum. He is willing to consider ages 21 and up. Then he says he wants to have children and "can she have children." Why would you want to have children and what are you going to do to them when they make you "angry"? Punch them? Kick them? Try to choke them in the parking lot? Then after he and his motley crew list the criteria he is looking for he takes a picture of a white couple that came with the picture frame as his ideal of the relationship he is looking for. Where is that in the Bible? BLACK WOMEN HEAL THYSELVES. I am serious! Until you do you will be preyed upon and engage in absolute complete and total foolishness like offering yourself ( or your innocent children) up like a golden calf to a man. In this case, the man has already proven that he is a sucky husband to TWO OTHER WOMEN. Now the common denominator in all of his failed relationships is Bishop Weeks. I think I am going to take a couple of weeks off of blogging to finish my book "Girl, Don't Do It!" Get a dog. Get a hobby. Go adopt a baby. Do something, but don't enter the Who Will Be the Next Mrs. Weeks Competition. Bishop, I know you are going to read this post because you are the kind of person who Googles himself. How about I list one of my ideal "criteria" in the future "Mr. WAOD". The first criteria is no violent criminal convictions on your rap sheet. Sorry Bishop, that rules you out!

The Juanity Bynum and Tommy "the Hitman" Weeks Divorce is Final

Ode To the Bynum Weeks,


Roses are red


Violets are blue


Don't call on me,


I'll call on you


...OR NOT!
The Lord Almighty


Our long national nightmare is over.


Yes, y'all the New Face of Domestic Violence, Juanita Bynum Weeks Bynum finalized her divorce from her bow-tie wearing, Satan-blaming charisma-challenged husband, Bishop Thomas Weeks, III. I only comment on this because these two have provided some of the best material this blog has ever seen.

Not because of the violence, that was shameful and sad, but because these two publicity hounds turned what should have been a community's tragedy into a publicist's dream.

Indecent and out of order would have been the best way to describe the circus-like levels this foolishness rose to: Sending messages to each other through sermons and YouTube clips ( Yes, y'all Bishop Weeks has a Youtube Channel). Writing books, retracting books, requiring new $250,000 threshing floors because you can't use the one at your own home, going on every Black syndicated radio station in the country.

These two had me torn because I believe that domestic violence should come out of the shadows. I don't think it is a "private" matter. I think everybody ought to know. Victims should not be isolated. If one spouse is using the media to wage war with the other, I think the other spouse has a right to respond. On the other hand, people who hold themselves out to be shepherds ought to at least make some minimal effort to conduct themselves in a manner befitting the station they believe they've been called to.

If WWJD was the standard of conduct, I can't help asking if Jesus would set up a YouTube channel to send messages, make threats, and spread lies. Would he ask the sheep to contribute $250,000 for a new threshing floor or announce to advertisers that his new website was receiving 40 million hits due to the attention created by news of the abuse. Something just seemed unseemly about this whole mess from the time that Bishop Weeks blamed Satan for making him lay hands on his wife. A charge Satan vehemently denied.

This comment from Black Christian News just about summed up my sentiments:

Positive proof some preachers are just as daffy as their congregations or the people that follow them. These people aren't perfect, but have been duped into believing they have to be. Use your own head and stop this deification of celebrities. Preachers and Pastors are mailmen and women who bring the Word- they are not the Word. Self evaluation is the hardest task to perform. If we spent more time straightening ourselves out and less time worrying about who is going out with who, we might find ourselves living own lives a lot more abundantly. But wait, what would the reporters do then? Figure it out or perish.

So in the end, Juanita Bynum hot a gig working as a "consultant" on Divorce Court and a gig on ABC Family's Lincoln Heights. She got to go on Good Morning America, got a cover of ESSENCE and Thomas Weeks now has a YouTube Empire, $40,000 in attorney's fees and a 2004 Range Rover... With these gas prices??? He should have demanded a bicycle.


I have written a po-em in honor of the occasion because y'all know how the Bynum Weeks inspire my creative side:

So we bid adieu


to the marriage many of us never knew


yet ended up knowing more than we would care to


Before it was through


About these two


Couldn't tell who


was lying or true


about that parking lot milieu



I challenge you to sum up this situation with a Rhyme of your own.

God to Juanita Bynum and Thomas Weeks: "Do I know Y'all?"

Hat Tip to Mo' Kelly- This is a continuing series of our coverage of the Bynum Weeks Dramedy

April 23, 2008, PEARLY GATES, Heaven (AP)IN a surprising development in the never ending saga, that is the never ending unwinding of their very short marriage, Juanita Bynum wife of Bishop Thomas Weeks, aka "Tommy the Hit Man" is going on Divorce Court to give "advice" to a couple in distress.

Televangelist Juanita Bynum says in a two-part episode of "Divorce Court" that she's through with her marriage to minister Thomas W. Weeks III, who is on probation for assaulting her.In episodes scheduled to air Thursday and Friday, Bynum also says she had thoughts of suicide and weighs in on a case involving domestic violence. When asked what advice she had for women in situations similar to hers, she said, "I have to make a decision ... to take the love that I had for him with me."In a transcript of the show obtained by The Associated Press, Bynum said she would always love Weeks, but made a decision to "love me more." AP


When reached by the Associated Press for comment, the Lord Almighty issued the following statement:

It has come to my attention that several media outlets have been attempting to reach me for comment regarding the dissolution of the marriage of a Juanita Bynum Weeks and a Thomas Weeks, who proclaims to be a bishop of some sort. I am aware that the Prophetess is planning to go on something called DIVORCE COURT.

I would like to go on the record as saying, I do not now nor have I ever known Juanita Bynum Weeks or Thomas Weeks . I don't have anything to do with these people.I don't know who they are talking about. It is my sincerest hope that they will cease and desist from representing to the world that they are in any way associated with me , Heaven, the Pearly Gates and anyone or anything mentioned between the books Genesis and Revelations. Please direct all future inquiries regarding these two to Hell.

Eternally Yours...OR NOT

The Lord Almighty

Read our previous dispatches from Heaven and Hell:
To those wondering why I have mocked these people, I say why not? They've been making a mockery out of each other and us for almost six months. Write the book. Complete the reality show and be done already!

Has Juanita Bynum, the "New Face of Domestic Violence", Reconciled With Her Husband?

Media Take Out along with other blogs are reporting that there has been a reconciliation between Prophetess Juanita Bynum Weeks and her Husband Bishop Thomas Weeks, III or as I like to call him, Tommy The Hit Man.

I don't know how reliable this info is. I am trying to hunt down some primary source information. If this is true we can have a discussion about what message this sends to all the women who reached out to and identified with the new face of domestic violence. Wow, church folks are just wilding out. I don't know if things are getting worse or if we now have multiple ways to report the foolishness. If this is true, you can bet that there will be a "conference" about this.

Blogs reporting:

Most people are repeating what they read on Media Takeout (hmmm- ABC News-it is not.)

God to Mr. Juanita Bynum: Surely You Jest! - The Bynum- Weeks Officially Have No Shame!


December 17, 2007, Pearly Gates, HEAVEN - The saints in Heaven are scrambling to figure out how to cure God Almighty of a bout of uncontrollable laughter. The Lord first started laughing out loud when God saw the new title of Mr. Juanita Bynum's, aka. Bishop Thomas Week's latest literary offering.

"When God saw the title of the book, God fell out laughing." said Michael Angel a resident of Heaven. "The last time we saw the Lord laugh like this was when a certain BET executive said a certain show was 'so doggone good!'"

The Bishop originally titled his book "What Love Taught Me," but as a result of a public backlash and possibly a couple of letters from his estranged wife's legal team, Bishop Weeks "recalled" the book and said that he was not going to be releasing the book for years! Now only one week later he has a new title -"What Love Has Taught Me ONLY!". Week's appears to have scrawled the word "only" on his original book jacket with a blue magic marker or Crayola crayon.

The Lord's giggles seemed to be receding until the Lord spied the title of an upcoming conference that the Bishop, a man charged with choking kicking and stomping his wife into the ground, plans to hold on Valentine's day. Seems Bishop Weeks has decided to throw a conference called "Renaissance for Domestic Wholeness." One can only assume that this is intended to counteract his estranged wife's bid to become the "new face of domestic violence."

Listen to the latest from the Tom Joyner Morning Show. Bishop Weeks says the details of the original book are so damning that it would end Juanita Bynum's ministry FOREVER!

Here is what I propose, I say we start a campaign in January 2008, to raise money to purchase a tiny island in the Indian Ocean. Why? So we can exile Mr. And Mrs. Juanita Bynum-Weeks.
