Televangelists are the s of the earth . . .

How did Osteen and Hagee elude this investigation?

[clambake]

don't know about osteen, but hagee would lead right back to the WH. considering he spent time, every week at the WH, the question marks would be unavoidable.

i was thinking of haggard. my mistake

[Borosai]

Yes, they are.

Have you ever been to the ORU campus? It's both fascinating and creepy.

GIANT bronze statue of praying hands, wonderfully tacky 1970's architechture, and the infamous prayer tower. Weird place.

No, but I shopped at the Wal-Mart across the street. Definitely a weird feel to the area... kind of a cross between Salt Lake City after 10pm and Jonestown.

How did Osteen and Hagee elude this investigation?

Question of the year.

[UV Ray]

Question of the year.

There should be an investigation into Osteen's affairs if for no other reason than to find out what's causing that permanent grin.

[Duff McCartney]

That goes against the entire concept of being a Christian.

That's open to interpretation. But that's neither here nor there.

[Duff McCartney]

When did Osteen say that? Can you post a link?

Damn now I can't find it...I saw it on his wikipedia page with a link. But now it got deleted.

I actually like that Osteen preaches a positive message- that God wants people to have wonderful lives and see their dreams come true-- rather than the brimstone, fire, and damnation of many televangelists.

I don't think he even asks viewers to send in money- does he?

While it may be a "positive" message, it is not, however, the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

While it may be a "positive" message, it is not, however, the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Is anything in the New Testament really the gospel of Jesus? It's all what someone else said he said.

There should be an investigation into Osteen's affairs if for no other reason than to find out what's causing that permanent grin.

The fact that his "church" used to be The Summit?
