More scary people

Joel Osteen and his wife (Victoria/Vickie/whatever) were on Piers Morgan tonight.  This man somehow manages to draw thousands to his "church" on Sunday mornings.  Are people so desperate for some type of spiritual connection that they will resort to these caricatures?

I think their fake smiles have some type of telekinetic power that is transferred through the television screen and forces people to watch them.  It worked with me because I wasted almost an hour of my life watching and listening.

Surprisingly, they said they would attend a same-sex wedding if they were invited as a show of "respect".  Of course they also said it's a "sin".  So let me get this straight (no pun intended).  They think a same-sex relationship is a "sin" but they would go to a same-sex wedding as a show of "respect".

Do these people listen to what comes out of their mouths?  They are incoherent.  Come on people - believe in something - or don't.

Our doomed society

New York's Catholic Archbishop, Timothy M. Dolan did not have one of his happier Sunday's today.  He says he is "weary".  Oh - the poor man.  All that prayer - and he still came out on the losing end in the same-sex marriage battle.

He also said "I think society and culture is at it's peril".  Really Tim?  Society and Culture is at it's peril?  That's pretty harsh.  Why didn't he just say "the locusts are on their way"?  This is a man who goes to work in a robe and thinks a healthy "society" is one in which women aren't considered equals - so of course he can't allow equality for us gay folk.

Of course he says things like this and not one person that follows him stands up to his face and says, "Shut the Fuck Up - you are embarrassing us and we don't agree with you".

Maybe his God did answer his prayers - just with an answer he wasn't expecting.
