Pastor Joel Osteen and his wife, Victoria, appeared AGAIN on Larry King Live, on April 8, 2009. The issue of gay "marriage" came up and Mr. Osteen talks on the definition of marriage and 'GOD's best' ... It would have been good of him to make note that the root of the gay "marriage" problem is that homosexuality is an abomination to the LORD our GOD. Read the article here.

It must be religious bigotry week on Larry King Live. Monday night was Pastor Rick Warren, and last night megachurch pastor Joel Osteen and his wife Victoria. King asked Osteen about the recent victories in the marriage equality battle. Osteen has a tough time getting his head around it.They honestly don't want to see homosexuality as anything less than a perversion. They're just well-coiffed and more polite versions of Michael Savage, essentially.Clip and transcript, AFTER THE JUMP... KING: Iowa Supreme Court just allowed same-sex marriage, making them thethird state; Massachusetts, Iowa and Hawaii. The general forecast isthat's coming.

But I'm not sure where it's all going.KI...
