Why do you think BBee published this, without any background? I mean, there is more story there, right? I was left wondering why the drive-by drop on a guy, absent entirely of any foundation. Not everyone knows about Osteen and read like a hit and run.

I don’t like drive-by reporting, on either side of the aisle, that can’t seem to stand up its own rational, when posting a stand alone slander against me or anyone else Who do they think we are?

College kids running Babylon, I guess?

He’s been a frequent target of theirs since the start of Babylon Bee.

People who don’t know who Osteen is probably aren’t ever going to read the Babylon Bee.

And you know what?

There is nothing whatsoever wrong ethically, morally, spiritually nor intellectually wrong with writing specifically for a target audience.

Dont use a satire site to get laughs at people you dont like if you cant laugh at people you do.

Joel is a likable guy. I know some of his background. I know some people really like him but theologically he is lacking. The reason for his popularity is he is a good motivational speaker. If you are down and depressed, he’s a good go to guy and I would recommend him for that. But for someone seriously seeking salvation, I could NOT recommend him. I’m sure he is a nice guy.

Let me just say that anyone who really knows anything about mega-churches and televangelists know who and what Osteen is and is all about.
2nd. It’s a satire site. Lighten up Francis!
