If your theory is correct she must have been pretty sure she wasn't going to be raptured too.

I think this was a case of a flight attendant taking the opportunity to take someone down a notch.

Get real. The FA reports to the Captain of the flight who made this decision. You know that is right.

FA's do not march up and down the aisles and kick people off the plane.

Face facts. The Osteen family has aired some dirty laundry here.

osteen had pelosi up there like they were old buddies...

pelosi acting like she was here in SF campaigning at a NOW rally... but when is she not.

[Steve_Stifler]

You complain about others jumping to conclusions and then decide to slander the flight attendant based on NO evidence?

[Fruitbat]

A preacher's family flying first class?! To "the slopes"? Gimme a break. We got to drive to the Adirondacks and pitch a leaky tent on Campsite #10.

I'm sure they're preparing a video tape on their vacation showing how they're repenting.

[Pukin Dog]

I can only assume that you are not successful enough to purchase a TV with a channel changer?

Either that, or you might just be stupid.

[Al Simmons]

Sounds like Joel can't handle his women. And he wants to preach on the subject?

[brushcop]

Yeah, they do and likewise with the Rev. Hagee in SA, TX. I went there once just to see if they really, really do fill those mega-churches up. They really, really did!

Quite a difference from our little 75-100 member country church in the Texas Hills. I think I'll stick with our little church, we can keep an eye on our pastor much easier!!

[Farmer Dean]

Probably sit down and shut up.I can almost hear her now,"Don't you know who I am???"

[Pukin Dog]

I think you should work on the definition of slander. I am well versed on the attitudes of SOME flight attendants. I know I have spent enough time with them.

[don-o]

Sounds like Joel can't handle his women. And he wants to preach on the subject?

Nail meet hammer.

[Fruitbat]

His church holds 16,000. Guess again.

And they only do one service?

1Ti 3:5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

[Tall_Texan]

Jesus was pretty well off.

But of course. He was known to feed thousands. And he did fly first class.

[Al Simmons]

"Having been in the theatre for many years, I can spot people who are acting. Joel is acting. He has Vasoline on his teeth. He's been coached by the best."

Bingo. He comes across as trying oh-so-hard to sound sincere, but he can't come close to his Pappy on that score. He reminds me of a lizard. And the accent doesn't help either. Doesn't match the NY suits he wears.

Heard of this, PD?

[Pukin Dog]

And what do you expect a PREACHER to do? Be rude? This is getting stupid.

[Trajan88]

See honey... time to buy that Gulfstream we've always wanted... and now need.

Going commercial so little people.

[MamaB]

Well, I went to a Houston newspaper which had an article about this. It said that a drink had been spilled in her seat and it was not cleaned up to her expectations. I do not consider that something to get all uptight about if that is what happened.

[Al Simmons]

I believe that you ought to shut your GD-MF mouth and keep your religiosity to yourself. Or else go to a religion bulleting board cause this ain't it. Most of the knives sticking out of my back were placed there by folks who "BELIEVED" as you do - or st least SAID they did, all the while living life in a quite opposite way.

To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln on another topic, 'If I want to be lied and abused I'll find someone who can administer the abuse without the base alloy of HYPOCRISY'.
