<p>As <a href="http://uproxx.com/tag/hurricane-harvey/" target="_blank">Hurricane Harvey</a> pummels Texas, thousands have been left displaced and exposed by the flooding, leading many to wonder <a href="http://uproxx.com/news/hurricane-harvey-victims-help-texas/" target="_blank">what they can do to help</a>. People from <a href="http://uproxx.com/realtalk/beyonce-houston-hurricane-harvey-relief/" target="_blank">Beyonce</a> to the folks at <a href="http://uproxx.com/life/hurricane-harvey-anheuser-busch-water/">Anheuser-Busch</a> are doing their part to assuage the need. <a href="http://www.christianitytoday.com/news/2017/august/houston-churches-fight-flooding-hurricane-harvey-cancels-se.html" target="_blank">Many local religious organizations and churches</a> have also <a href="https://cruxnow.com/church-in-the-usa/2017/08/28/catholic-groups-mobilizing-help-hurricane-harveys-aftermath/" target="_blank">gone out into their hurting communities</a> to provide what aid they can, but there has been one noticeable exception.</p>
<p><a href="http://uproxx.com/news/joel-osteen-endorse-donald-trump-video/" target="_blank">Joel Osteen</a>, celebrity pastor, author, podcaster, and multi-millionaire, tweeted out to his congregants on Sunday that his Houston based Lakewood Church would be closed due to flooding. </p>
<div class="embed-twitter">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Victoria &amp; I are praying for everyone affected by Hurricane Harvey. Please join us as we pray for the safety of our Texas friends &amp; family.</p>

<p><script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
<p>However, a little research proved that Lakewood wasn&#8217;t damaged at all by the flooding, and was simply staying empty. Despite the fact that the megachurch seats 16,800 and could provide lots of shelter for displaced Houston residents, <a href="http://nypost.com/2017/08/28/pastor-osteen-shuts-church-amid-flooding-crisis/" target="_blank">Osteen wasn&#8217;t practicing</a> the Christian virtue of providing for those in need.</p>

																		<p>I&#8217;m not defending Osteen at all, but does his behavior surprise anyone? He got the fuck out of Dodge and is very likely completely unaware of any real world consequences of what most of his  very own  parishioners would view as a biblical disaster.  These people don&#8217;t realize that religion without empathy is one of the biggest evils the world has ever known.</p>

I mean here&#8217;s a guy who  supposedly knows what&#8217;s in the New Testament word for word. Who claims to believe in it and live by it every day if not every hour or every minute!!! At least Bernie Madoff scammed rich people. And in that regard, he has more class than this  pig-ly con artist.</p>

																		<p>There are no such parts in the bible that do that. IF anything, there are only verses and passages that expose him for the crook that he is, knowing that Jesus Whom he claims to follow, had neither a home (Matthew 8:20) nor a wallet (Matthew 17:27). Funnily Mat 17:27 also documents Jesus PAYING his TAXES!!!!! Now why isn&#8217;t this fraud doing what His Master is doing? (Matthew 10:24). What is he doing living in 11 million dollars mansion when Jesus had not a hole to crawl in?!?!?</p>
