But, by your own words, Osteen is not a Christian (I agree). Were you equally defensive of al-Mahdi’s feelings when he was identified as an islamic terrorist?
BTW, your use of the term “umbrella of ‘Christian’” voices the ancient heresy of agnosticism.

My point is that hte TRUE Christian world takes a hit whenever the media attack ‘fundamentals’ whether they are true Christians or not-
[[BTW, your use of the term umbrella of Christian voices the ancient heresy of agnosticism.]]
see my above comment- I do not think Joel is a Christian and has no part i nthe fundamental realm- however, the PERCEPTION is that he is a fundamental, and as such TRUE fundamentals take a hit when people like him are unfairly accused and maligned
Don’t worry- I’m not claiming Joel is a true Christian- He obviously isn’t if you study what he actually preaches-
My whole point is that bearing false witness in order to malign anyone is not right- and is an injustice no matter who is on the receiving end- it is something that God is very serious about to doing- and the MSM has a lot to be worried about when God judges them for doing this to many- not just to joel or trump or whomever-
