Since being a Christian and believing in jesus is the only way to get to heaven. I would vote Joel Osteen. Believing in a perverted islamic cult and aligning yourself with Satan doesn't cut it.

Someone once told an astounded religious study group that - "There is a... Hell of Difference... between religion and Christianity.." You could have heard a pin drop as they thought it through - (I'm betting there is a silent pause as some read this now).
Meanwhile we endure hell on earth from those that have temporarily made the wrong choice in their beliefs, including some very 'religious' folks.. Perhaps they will see the "LIGHT" before it is too late, eternally. Love is THE answer!
Religion is nothing more than MAN trying to organize others to support their beliefs or fill their pockets, by using the written words in a book maligned to suit each different religion, read the NUMEROUS Bibles, or Korans, which both these men mentioned have been successful at doing. Neither cares for those who FOLLOW them, only what they can gain by those followers. IMO, IF you have to commit to a tithe, your religion is for profit, and if you have to commit your life for x amount of virgins, you have been nothing but a fool for these humans.
I'll take my personal spiritual way of life over any religion, any day.
Joel Osteen is a beautiful spiritual man of God. I watch him most of the time. I personally knew his father, who was a great man of God also. Joel his a great teacher who always try to encourge others that they can suceed in life by being obedient to the Word of God! I love him and his whole family.
Osama Bin Laden is an extremely religious man. It was the United States govt. and two former Bush Presidents who provoked him, which caused Sept.11th. Ofcouse what he did was horrible but Bin Laden did not start wars going on in the Mideast, our Pentagon and U.S. Presidents did. Joel Osteen is just another hypocritical evangelest taking money, spewing out theories just using a different style.
who cares! i only care about my own religious behavior
and those of my immediate associates and family. If anyone i come in contact with WISHES to share their AND my beliefs then i will share!
To be honest, I've never heard of Joel Osteen...
and Osama Bin Laden is someone who is extreme religious, and misinterpreted what the holy Qu'ran said.
Oh that is so true Callista. I have been to all types of religious institutions. They rob food from mouths of children in their congregations. A few I attended owned the buildings while their congregation paid toward the mortgage without being on the building title. Other then just collecting donations they used thything from Old Testament Bible, changing it to suit themselves, taking a percentage of each member of their congregation's salary which goes strictly to the pastors.
I don't know and I don't care.

I guess it depends on your definition of religion.
