He gets more than his share of persecution by the modern-day Pharisees.

I do not see how this can possibly be legal.

In fact, the very nature of this subpena should be grounds for impeachment of the mayor and the judge

Good grief! There were hundreds of pastors not included...including some who, like JO, are on TV every Sunday in Houston and have large congregations.

Don't distract attention from Parker for her actions by bringing up Joel Osteen!

These were ministers opposing the gay’s are more equal than others law - J.O. would not wade into those waters.

How many citizens would it take to lock the mayor in jail?

I’m missing something. How can the mayor’s attorneys, or anyone else, issue subpoenas outside of a legal process, such as an investigation or a trial on specified charges?

No...he is a homosexual supporting false teacher. The Pharisees were political and would have no problem with Joel Osteen. Jesus would have driven him out!

The Church of Your Best Purpose Driven Self-Esteem probably never touches anything slightly controversial.

I seriously doubt that .. and you shouldn’t be spreading rumors before you know any of the facts.

It is a civil case, five pastors are suing the mayor and her administration over the executive order to allow trannies to use whatever public restroom they like. They gathered signature to petition for the order to be overturned and the mayor’s people discredited thousands of signatures as not valid for all sorts of bogus reasons and so the ministers sued. I don’t know the details of the case but the mayor turned vindictive and is going after the ministers for using their churches for political purposes. ...or something like that. If she finds anything that she can label hate speech, she will use that as well. It is a fishing expedition.

I don’t get it. So what if Osteen’s not included in the Parker leftist persecution and witchhunt? What point are you trying to make here?

Honestly, I get this vibe that Osteen is one of those snake oil salesman types and I have a hard time taking him seriously. It’s one of those nebulous things that I can’t say what it is specifically about him, that rubs me the wrong way, but something does.
