Joel Osteen gets a lecture

[freeatlast]

I had to laugh at this, Joel being bullied
Earlier this week, Joel Osteen appeared on The View, and Barbara Walters asked him about his statement that homosexuality is not "God's best for your life."

Joy Behar is an idiot. Even the most liberal pastor in the country is too conservative for her. :BangHead:

All I can say is that Joel has a very weak way of defending biblical truth. Was he even defending the Bible?

Considering she's a NY Italian Catholic....she has no homosexual issues Right

I watched that the other night and it seemed like he was going to put himself into a corner with them and say that the Bible is clear and we listen to the Bible about homosexuality but the man couldn't get a sentence finished in the entire interview!! My stars!! I don't care how famous I got - I don't think I'd ever go on that show where you KNOW you'd get skewered without even saying a word.

you of course have seen Larry Kings interview with Al Mohler. The old fart couldnt paint Dr. Mohler into a corner...too much knowledge & too much truth behind him to get bullied. Id expect a true testimony from any real Pastor. This Olstein guy isnt real.

RB....he doesnt teach it properly, probably doesnt know it & so how could he defend it.

I didn't see the full TV show, but on the clip in the OP, I agree with Ann - the man couldn't get a word in edgewise.

At least one thing - Americas favorite pastor believes that homosesulaty is not of the Lord! :thumbs:

It's Osteen.

 

[mcdirector]

speaking of bullying . . . I think that clip shows it in action.

(AND I'm certainly no Osteen fan)

Doesn't it? I know *I* would be scared to face those "ladies". Seriously - how was he even to put in a word to let them know what he knew? And it really sounded like he was going to step into the ring with saying that homosexuality is not God's design. Wowza!

Well, me and my motormouth? I could go on that show and take them ALL down. I'd have Joyless Joy crying for her mama!

HA! Just kidding. Joel Osteen never stood a chance. Why he went on that show is beyond me. They didn't bring him there to debate or defend his beliefs. They brought him there as a political punching bag.

You'd think that people going on the show would figure that out by now.

Poor dude probably thought he was going to be given a chance to talk about how they love everyone, and get some advertising for his books and stuff....

 

[SpiritualMadMan]

Joel is too easy going and was like a Lamb to the Slaughter. He prefers to smile than to debate. Which outside the protected precincts of his adoring crowd left him quite unprepared.

Now, Bill O'Reilly on the other hand "chased" two of them of the platform when he was there.
