"Daytime Tv's Mother Teresa." I dare not comment on this. But, I sure would like to know your thoughts.

Boy did they get that wrong. I see no comparison. Mother Teresa was a nun. But I guess the secular world knows o difference.

I was actually offended by that. I heard Oprah with my own ears say that there hast to be more than one way to God, than through Jesus.

What other way is there? That is what I would like to know. The Bible says that anyone who tries to come in any other way is a thief and a robber. There is no other name given among men whereby we must be saved. It is annoying to me when people try to rearrange the Bible to suit their needs. Or try to pick choose and refuse what applies to them. This is why I do not like Oprah Winfry. She has been given a national platform to speak the truth and she doesn't seem to have a clue.

Well, what was she implying by that remark I wonder? The Bible specifically states that no one can come to the Father but by me(Jesus). He is the one who will plead to the Father(God)for us, so what other venue is there?

Just another far left exstreamist liberal. I do though love her for her generousity and charity. I just wish she would keep her political veiws to herself as she alianates some of her conseritive veiwers.

Yes, I figured she would make a few enemies there. I don't really have an opinion on that one. I guess I would have to say that I am uncharacteristically speechless.

Well, I would not call her a Mother Theresa but she is some powerful lady. I admire her for her generosity and for the way she spends millions of dollars to help better other people's lives. I do not however, buy her products or follow all her suggestions.

Mother Teresa was influential for what she did, and so is Oprah though light years from occupations and such. However, she has made a name for herself by featuring programs relevant to people. I take the comment with a shrug myself.

Oprah has done a lot of good for a lot of people but she is not in the same league as mother Teresa. Oprah has not sacrificed and seen the horrors that Mother Teresa I feel Entertainment Weekly Magazine should not have published such crap!

This is what I am saying, she can not even come close to Mother Teresa. Didn't Mother Teresa take a vow of poverty?

Don't get me wrong and all, I like Oprah, but she's no Mother Teresa. People do what Oprah says, buy what Oprah says to buy, vote for who Oprah likes, and yadda yadda yadda. Her word is gold to so many people. I don't buy into that whole celebrity thing and she sure doesn't influence this chick's choices. Oprah does good things, but she's not an idol and shouldn't be put on a pedestal like that.

You hit the nail on the head. This is why I can not stand her. It is like people worship her. She is not God and she never will be. She is a human being just like everyone else. When Jesus comes back, her knee will bow and if she has not accepted Christ as her personal Lord and savior, she will bust hell wide open. I am speaking the truth and I don't care what any body else hast to say about it.

Well I like Oprah and watch a lot of her tv programs but I don't see her as "Mother Teresa". Yes she helps a lot of people and gives to alot of charities as well as her own but I don't idolize her. She is just another tv celebrity in my book.
