I clicked on the link thinking,"Ok, here's a Hollywood type, and she is supposed to be a minister. Lets see where it goes." Then I read the link and thought she's making God upset for several different reasons.

Fame is one of those things that can help you teach the masses because you have their ear. Unfortunately some people teach things that are against Jesus, and there they hurt themselves.

Luke 17:2
[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]It would be better for him if a large millstone were tied around his neck and he were thrown into the sea than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin.[/FONT]

Anyone can obtain credentials to perform weddings and funerals in the eyes of the sectarian world. Perhaps they even see these '60 second' degrees as evidence for one now qualified to go into the ministry. There is fantasy and there is reality.

A person who is in a position to teach is judged far harsher than a layman who spouts deception. Certainly God does not consider her valid, however there was once a day and age when people who were rebellious against him would at least fear him enough to avoid sacrilage.

"Thou shalt not lay with mankind as with woman kind; it is abomination."
Do people think God was being a meanie when He said this?
Sorry, guess I'm "intolerant".
Anyway, back on topic, this would be funny if it weren't so sad! Does she think she's helping people? I try not to be judgemental, but this is too much!
