  Christian Broadcasting Network - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 Christian Broadcasting Network
While many religious broadcasters relied on sermons to convey their message, Robertson developed a talk show approach on his new station, in which interviews, music, teaching, prayer and healing were all provided in a smoothly produced program format.
By 1980 the Continental Broadcasting Network, an alternative name for CBN Cable, provided a 24 hour satellite tv service reaching more than 5 million homes; cable operators were paid a few cents per month per viewer for providing a religious cable channel in their area.
The significance of CBN is that it provides incontrovertible evidence that a generous section of the American television public continue to want to watch religious tv, and contribute millions of dollars every year to support such broadcasting ventures.

More and more there is a tendency for humanistic or irreligious educators or social workers to intrude on the relationship between Christian parents and their children, thereby destroying the trust between them.
Christians believe that parents, not the state, must have primary control over children.
It is ludicrous to think that Christianity can be believed along with a system that calls religion "the opium of the people" and a falsehood.

 Report
CBN does not meet this Standard because its combined audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, do not contain a detailed schedule of expenses by natural classification (e.g., salaries, employee benefits, occupancy, postage, etc.) for each of its major programs, fund raising, and administrative activities.
CBN does not meet this Standard because its website, www.cbn.com, does not include all of the recommended information for those charity websites that solicit contributions.  Specifically, it does not include a roster of the members on the CBN board of directors, and does not provide electronic access to the most recent IRS Form 990.
The assets of the trust are not controlled by CBN and are to be distributed to CBN in 2010 or on the death of Pat Robertson and his wife, whichever is later.

 Bahai News -- The Christian Broadcasting Network - Understanding Cults
CBN.com -- To the Christian, a cult can be defined as any group that has a form of godliness, but does not recognize Jesus Christ as the unique Son of God.
Another test is whether the person who is the teacher or leader of the group or movement promotes himself as being equal to or greater than Jesus, or promotes allegiance to himself in such a way as to take away from obedience to and worship of Christ (II Corinthians 10:10, 18; 11:3,4).
Old patterns (e.g., inordinate cult-oriented mediation) carried over into a new Christian lifestyle (e.g., prayer) tends to deceive and weaken your resistance to future satanic attacks, much as hypnotism weakens your ability to resist repeated hypnosis.
