I thought this Christian-sourced image says it all.
Hey Kids! Don't use your minds! If it all seems too silly, just shut that down!
Like Love, It's a battlefield for the mind of the teen!

Yes, she ignores those verses about women keeping quiet, at least in church.
I suppose she uses "reason" to have come to that conclusion.
But wait! Reason is the enemy of faith! Oh no!

Yes, because if anyone used reason to discern her lies then they'd lynch her. Joyce Meyer is evil!

They try to hard to give the words reason and logic negative connotations, yet just come off a silly to the rest of us. If your boss can't communicate with you properly about what you're supposed to do, it's not just your fault when you get it wrong. Or when you and your buddies get into debates over what your boss is trying to tell the two of you.

I suspect that satan is more important to these fuckers than god.

Because the money spends just as well in a woman's hands.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould

Like El Ron said, if you want to make serious money, start a religion. Or in her case, fleece the flock of an existing religion.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joyce_Meyer...d_finances
Quote:Meyer, who owns several homes and travels in a private jet (currently a Gulfstream G-IV),[8][9] has been criticized by some of her peers for living an excessive lifestyle. She responded that she doesn't have to defend her spending habits because "...there's no need for us to apologize for being blessed."[8] Meyer commented, "You can be a businessman here in St. Louis, and people think the more you have, the more wonderful it is...but if you’re a preacher, then all of a sudden it becomes a problem."[8]
In November 2003, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch published a four-part special report[8] detailing Meyer's "$10 million corporate jet, her husband’s $107,000 silver-gray Mercedes sedan, her $2 million home and houses worth another $2 million for her four children," a $20 million headquarters, furnished with "$5.7 million worth of furniture, artwork, glassware, and the latest equipment and machinery," including a "$30,000 malachite round table, a $23,000 marble-topped antique commode, a $14,000 custom office bookcase, a $7,000 Stations of the Cross in Dresden porcelain, a $6,300 eagle sculpture on a pedestal, another eagle made of silver bought for $5,000, and numerous paintings purchased for $1,000 to $4,000 each," among many other expensive items – all paid for by the ministry. The articles prompted Wall Watchers[10] (a Christian nonprofit watchdog group) to call on the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to investigate Meyer and her family.
And another good one from a religious leader. This is the same pope even some atheists like.
Curiosity killed the cat after all:

He's in his Purell Not Reasoning chamber, purifying his thoughts from reason, and replacing them with ~~Reasons~~
