Oprah and Joel Osteen

I just finished watching Oprah's Next Chapter where she spotlighted Joel Osteen.  I have long admired his positive message of hope but was brought to tears to hear him admit that he believes homosexuality is a sin ( http://www.oprah.com/own-oprahs-next-chapter/Pastor-Joel-Osteen-Discusses-Sin-and-the-Path-to-God ).


While I believe in his sermons and value his insight, here is a subject where we part ways.  I believe that we are all created equal, men and women alike, so if you love your equal - whether it is a man or a woman, you are bringing harm to no one, only love - which makes it anything but a sin.

Be grateful more!  Love more!  Be of service more!  That I believe is the path to God.
