As a cradle catholic it amazes me that good folks, esp Catholics, will buy into that tickle your ear prosperity gospel that the Paul warns us about. And the Osteen’s have got to be the swarmyest couple ever I just can’t believe there and ounce of sincerity in them.

Joel Osteen the prosperity preacher from Houston has just moved up from his $2m mansion to a $10m mansion.

Protestants will beat up on Catholics for having a highly exalted infallible leader who is treated like a celebrity. Duh. The problem with them is not that they don’t have a Pope, but that they have 30,000 popes. Every pastor a pope, and Pope Osteen is just one among many. Joel Osteen and Pope Francis

Reading through the comments on this thread, that number needs to be bumped up. It appears they all practice YOPIOS.

Catholics will beat up on non-Catholics for following a man who lives off the money of others who follow his church and don't see the hypocrisy of the fact that they are doing the same thing they are condemning in others, and those televangelists don't have anything on the power and opulent lifestyle of the pope.

You are trespassing on narses' schtick now!
