But who is Lord RayEl, and how could he wield so much influence over Muema that the young athlete would squander what appeared to be at least a decent shot at the NFL and its lucrative fields of glory?

This is where the story gets even more depressing, because Lord RayEl, a/k/a Raymond Elwood Howard-Lear, originally of Lynwood, Illinois, is just about the most pathetic excuse for a guru that we’ve ever seen — and we’ve covered quite a few.

We’ll start at the beginning — Lord RayEl’s website. Its address is “ra-el.org” and it proclaims “The Messiah Has Arrived.”

The site features videos and “proof” that RayEl is the returned Jesus Christ, and it urges readers to prepare for his coming. “What purpose would it serve to follow a dead church,” he explains in his Frequently Asked Questions section, “when you could instead follow the living Christ?”
