This shifty article is trying to attach the credibility of an argument by coupling it with the negative image of a flashy megachurch pastor. This article spends an entire paragraph setting up this image of a person who is not the center of the issue; as Osteen is clearly not the only person who is concerned or affected by this FCC decision. - RealmDown, on 10/10/2008, -0/+4If you need a microphone for people to hear you, your church is too big anyway.
