We, along with a few others, would leave right as the pastor was ending service. We did it to beat the rush and traffic.


Traffic from church? Seriously? Is this where the LSU gameday culture comes from?

Yeah, we just don't go anymore. I have better things to do on my Sunday.

Joel Osteen has said something worse than this guy? I'm no expert on Osteen, but I don't remember him saying anything like this.

Give us an example of something Joel Osteen said that is worse than this.

If your church is Biblical and serving God, you don't need to use tactics like this.

That is a church all God-fearing people should run away from.

LOL.

I'm atheist, but if the TV is on on Sunday morning, I sometimes will watch his opening just to listen to his joke of the week.

Sometimes they are actually funny in a "dad joke" kind of way.

A couple of weeks ago he told one that was pretty racy for a pastor. It took me by surprise. I wish I could remember what it was.

Like Steve Harvey said on Kings of Comedy…every black church has a building fund but haven’t as much put a doorknob on the door. A fool seperated from their money….

1. False churches will preach false teachings
2. Get up & walk out
3. Probably will lead to multiple counts of kidnapping

Reminds me of a childhood joke about a preacher who said:

Open them doors, and open ‘em wide
Let my sermon go outside

Later

Close them doors, and close ‘em quick
Some motherfricker just hit me with a brick!

Imagine a restaurant that provides this type of church service during the meal.

Talk about an internal conflict.
