The advantage of being your own Pope, sole arbiter and only decision maker, is that you can ignore, rewrite or even excise entire passages from Holy Scripture. Probably not something God approves of, but it can be vastly profitable (for a time) in this life. When you are a profit/prophet why then anything can be excused or explained away. The only difference between Osteen and Macpherson is gender (perhaps not).

Is this an example of "Theological" dialog you were asking for D-fendr? Because it sure looks a lot like grudge attacks to me. Nobody here is arguing for Osteen or Macpherson theology so why are all non-Catholics being swiped at? Anyone who dares discuss the wrong theology of the Catholic Church is "attacking" the Church for liberals, but it's okay to attack a group based on wrong theology NOBODY is spouting??? This is just a little bit too much hypocrisy to stomach.
