Pro-Abortion Activists Disrupt Joel Osteen’s Pentecost Sunday Service
Catholic News Agency ^ | 6/5/22 | Joe Bukuras

Washington, D.C. Newsroom, Jun 5, 2022 / 16:41 pm Pro-abortion activists disrupted Joel Osteen's sermon at the televangelist's Lakewood Church in Houston on Sunday, stripping down to their undergarments and shouting expletives and pro-abortion slogans before they were escorted out of the building.

The Twitter account TX4ABORTION posted videos of the incident, the latest in a series of pro-abortion demonstrations targeting churches in recent weeks. The demonstrations are in response to a leaked U.S. Supreme Court draft opinion last month that suggested a conservative majority on the court is poised to oveturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision in 1973 that legalized abortion nationwide.

Julianne D'Eredita, 21, of Austin, Texas, told CNA in an interview Sunday that she led the group of 13 activists on behalf of the Austin-based affiliate of Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights, an activist group that calls for protests against pro-lifers and pro-life laws.

The demonstrators were detained by the police and told they would be charged with a crime if they returned, D'Eredita said.

D'Eredita told CNA she attended Osteen's church as a child and knows Osteen personally.

These activists rely know how to bring people over to their side don’t they. I would have trouble not kicking their butts in the parking lot.

With the shootings taking place in schools and churches lately, the ONLY response to something like this is violent self-defense. You just can’t depend on these kooks to be harmless.

Best response: leaving them in their under-britches, then throwing them down concrete stairs, one after the other, so that there is a pile of semi nude, bleeding and bruised agitators.

Only then summon the police to pick them up for “public indecency” as well as trespassing.

Be careful what you wish for...

Also why do these types always strip naked, perhaps they have no legitimate argument.

I imagine the thoughts of religious grandma sitting in the church and seeing a bunch of lunatics, angrily shouting and stripping, ruining the tranquility of Sunday services and demanding to be able to kill more children. I don’t think grandma is thinking we should give them what they want. I imagine grandma is thinking they are demonically possessed.

I looked at the video on Twitter.

Wish I hadn’t.

3 fatties stripping to underwear screaming “my body, my rights”

Makes you want to say “ok, keep your body. No one wants it anyway “

So did these barbarians do this because Osteen actually preaches against abortion, or because they knew doing this in the biggest megachurch in America would make national news?
