Rev. Joel Osteen Doesn’t Ban Gays From His Church, Or Alcoholics Or Drug Addicts

Like Brian Brown and Mike Huckabee, the Rev. Joel Osteen is one of those “smiling bigots” who gets to defend his homophobia with the Bible. Returning to The View after last year’s argument that gays are not “God’s best” creation, the Houston-based pastor at Lakewood Church repeats he doesn’t “know” whether gay clergy (like Pastor Jim Swilley) and the Catholic Church are compatible. Then he goes on to compare gays to the drug and alcohol addicted, and it’s like, are we still paying this guy mind?
