Joel Osteen's Wife Sued Over Air Rage Incident

What a coincidence! The last few days on a Joel Osteen thread the subject of his wife Victoria's 2005 air rage incident came up.

Now today Fox News has a story that the Continental Airlines attendant involved in that fracas is suing Victoria Osteen and the case is going to trial.

Here is a link to the article;

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

I wonder if she's read "Become a Better You"??

In all fairness he wrote the book after this incident and for all we know perhaps BECAUSE of it!!!! LOL!!!!

It sounds like she needed to have been enrolled in a class on the fruit of the spirit.

Re: Joel Osteen's Wife Sued Over Air Rage Incident

After reading the article and the details of the alleged assault, I found one sentence pretty odd.

"According to court documents, Brown claims that she suffers from anxiety and hemorrhoids because of the incident and said her faith was affected."

How did THAT happen?

I did not know the timeline, but that IS interesting. I guess inspiration can come from anywhere!

ROFL!!!!

I think it is pretty obvious this lawsuit is only happening because of the Osteen's deep pockets.

No doubt Victoria was a witch and unchristian but I really doubt her obnoxious, spoiled behaviour actually caused this flight attendant hemmrrhoids or anxiety.

As a flight attendant she deals with morons probably every day.

You are exactly right!

Interesting story, I worked for a well known low airfare company and during training one of the trainers related this story.

An elderly lady had a BM in her pants during the flight. Her sister who was also an older woman stands her up in the aisle and proceeds to pull her britches off of her!

The attendant rushed up with a blanket to cover the exposed woman and radio ahead to have a new seat cushion ready to replace the soiled one.

So yes it is all about money!
