frick this clown.

quote:

Celebrity pastor Joel Osteen is drawing intense criticism online for keeping his megachurch closed during Hurricane Harvey and instead offering social media promises of prayers.

Is the church flooded though? Is it safely accessible?

Right, but if it isn't safe to get to the church, these people are assclowns.

I hate that guy, but I don't see what the outrage is about here. I think these folks just hate him enough that they want to do anything to make him look bad.

It's the hypocrisy of being "a man of God" but refusing to help his neighbor when they're in dire need.

ETA: I'm not trying to hate on him, but I can see why people would be pissed.

Exactly, not sure why he's expected to open his business to anyone in Houston

The article mentions that the church is inaccessible. If that's true then there isn't much to be done.

Edited to add: I think the guy is a clown but this just kinda seems like more faux outrage directed at rich people.
