HOUSTON - The wife of the pastor of the nation's largest church was asked to leave a plane after she failed to comply with a flight attendant's instructions, the FBI said Tuesday.

Houston Lakewood Church pastor Joel Osteen, his wife, Victoria, and their two children boarded a Continental Airlines flight from Houston to Vail, Colo., Monday. The plane's door had been closed when Victoria Osteen and a flight attendant had a disagreement.
"She failed to comply with the flight attendant's instructions, and they were asked to leave the flight," FBI spokeswoman Luz Garcia said without elaborating on the disagreement.
The FBI reviewed a report from Continental after the incident, Garcia said. No charges will be filed, she said.
The flight was delayed more than an hour while the Osteens' luggage was retrieved, Garcia said. The family took another flight to Colorado, where church spokesman Don Iloff said they were skiing Tuesday.
Iloff called the disagreement with the flight attendant "minor" but would not say what happened.
"In semantics, they might have been asked to be removed," he said. "Really, it was more of a mutual thing."
Continental spokeswoman Julie King would not discuss the disagreement but said in a statement that the situation was resolved.
Osteen's sermons are broadcast across the country and his book "Your Best Life Now" has become a best seller. His church has more than 30,000 worshippers weekly and meets in a renovated arena where the Houston Rockets once played.

Sit and shut the up.
Is it that difficult?
I need to be a preacher so I can get filthy rich and a hot wife. He's a ing hustler.
Another of the 'God wants you to be rich' crowd.
Thou shall not interfere with a pastor's ski trip to Vail?
I'm just glad she didn't use any words even resembling "bomb".
She be a fine women!
If only the same had happened to Kobe, there would be one less bad tattoo in the world.
yep. It's amazing how many people "find God" once they're told that God wants them to be selfish and intolerant. Honestly, I can't believe televangelists didn't think of this years ago.
sigh. Whatever happened to the good 'ol days of Rev. Buckner Fanning sharing 30 second dollops of wisdom during Dukes of Hazzard commercial breaks?
Jesus was just kidding about that camel through an eye of a needle stuff, anyway . . .
They shoulda shot her a couple of times. She'd get the point.
shouldnt the good ole pastor be preparing for Christmas?
on yeah, I forgot. She's white.
That's another item that crossed my mind. I guess he's tending to the flock in Vail....
How does a "good ole pastor" prepare for Christmas? Or is it just an attempt to bash organized religion?
Had this been some prominent figure in the muslim world, I'm guessing cracking jokes wouldn't be funny. The words Bush and civil liberties would have been used in the same sentence 38 times by now.
But more importantly, he's got a sweet assed wife.
well considering Christmas is one of the two most important days of the year for a Christian, preparing your sermon and all for this day would be nice, among other things that go into that day.
I'd hit it
Is Lakewood the church that bought the Compaq Center?
Indeed, sir.
Well, considering they work all year around on sermons - and usually Christmas/Christmas Eve sermons are the same from year to year - being either communion and/or the story of Christmas - I think he's probably ok.
Or, we could just feel comfortable that since the guy is a very successful and world-known pastor - that he's probably done this before and probably has it all under control.
[raises hand] Fly the to Vail?
Your words, not mine.
He apparently has been quite successful at commercializing his ministry. Nevermind all of that trifling stuff Christ said about not putting your trust in worldly items. You too can score big with your own church.
Don't forget it's all tax free too. Isn't life just wonderful?
and if he voted democrat youd defend him.
Go away.
Once again,
its obvious,
its a crime to be rich in america.
