“Oprah seems to be a contradiction perfectly suited for a confused world of pluralism. She is a billionaire who speaks passionately about the pain and suffering in the world from the comforts of her sheltered life. She is among the most beloved icons of mothers yet she has never had any children. Many viewers tune in to learn how to improve their marriages yet she has never been married.

Is Doctor Phil a cult leader? They both speak with such persuasion and authourity. Just listening in to a half hour of their advice would have you buying a big house in suburban America, progressing your career, joining a book club, going to a psychologist, giving 2% of your income to your favourite charity, join a political movement (something that says we all have a right to do …..),
have kids if it will enrich your life and if not then don’t bother, fight for equality between the sexes while still making sure that women retain the title and privileges of being “different”.
The list could go on.
Is Oprah a Cult Leader? I think she would call a true Christian(someone who trust in Christs death alone for their salvation and lays their life down at his feet with all their aspirations) a cultist.
She certianly offers a sedative to ease the pain of many Spiritually dead people.
some have said dr phil is christian.
is that founded on anything??
we have a couple of dr phil’s at our church… not quite as famous as the tv one!
