The article was an attempt to show that Osteen's brand of Christianity has little to do with Biblical Christianity. You seem to be easily offended by religious disagreements. I am just as easily offended/bored by your brand of ''all paths lead to God/Coexist'' Christianity, or whatever you call it. It's a religion forum, and religious subjects are apt to be discussed. When a thread looks like it is degenerating into denominational nastiness, I don't participate. IMO, you are guilty of what you decry by basically saying we have no business having these threads on FR.

BTW, some religion threads are labeled as 'caucus' threads. This means they are closed to people who are not a member of the caucus thread. People who crash those threads are breaking the rules and are usually asked to leave by a moderator.

Um...I don’t think I mentioned the “Coexist” meme. And, who cares if some people find Osteen inspiring?

I don’t know what a “caucus” thread is. That’s something I’ve ever encountered during years of lurking, since 1998.

I found this thread under the general “Forum” heading.

If I’ve made a mistake, please inform me as to exactly WHERE I am permitted to respond in a religious sense, to a thread or post that involves Religion.

(And, as to your sense of what is ‘Biblical’ or not: I don’t think that anybody really knows, for sure!)

I’m about Spirit, and letting it in.

YMMV.

My best to you,
