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

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?

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

I was going to guess they didn’t ask a single black church!

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?

Reading the articles on this civil lawsuit reminds me of all the CIVIL lawsuits I have been involved in in 43 years of developing real
estate in Austin. One recollection that stands out above all others is that lmany awyers are just lazy! Most of what a lot of them file they have never read. They just tell their high paid legal assistant to send the “bastards” our most comprehensive motion for production with the attitude that some items they are requesting will survive and and some want survive summary judgment at the certain “motion to quash” or “Protective order” hearing.

Judges then allow items and disallow others and the whole process starts over again.

What’s interesting in this case is the suddenness that th city lawyers started back peddling. Shows they know they really f’d up in my opinion at submitting a bunch of stuff without reading it.

why would they need to subpoena Joel Olsteen’s sermons? He is on TV FCOL. :-) In fact many churches post sermon audio and video recordings online for all to see. Then those that don’t do that .. often do not write out every word of a sermon. They might have notes but that’s about it. Besides the unconstitutional nature of the request — it was a ridiculous request by people who are decades behind the times in understanding how churches operate these days. Of course these people probably have never been in a church.

Guess who’s missing from the list of Pastors persecuted
by the City of Houston?

**************

Not necessarily a hard feat to accomplish since only
five pastors received the summons.......

No surprise there. In no way, form, or fashion is Joel O. a Minister of the Gospel.

I only have seen Osteen in small doses, but he doesn’t seem like the kind of pastor who would give sermons on homosexuality, abortion, or anything controversial.

I believe FR policy is that you’re not supposed to change the title from the original article. Your commentary is supposed to be in a comment below or in parentheses after.

I like Joel. His sermons make me feel good. I listen to at least two a day on the radio.
