Nightline: So if Jesus were here, he'd have a corporate jet?
Meyer: He might today, they weren't available then.
I should note Joyce is also publishing her 80th book this week, titled (I kid you not) Eat the Cookie, Buy the Shoes. Dear Ms. Meyer, do you know how many people in the world would love to just eat a piece of bread and have a simple pair of flip flops to protect the soles of their feet, and instead you want to publish a whole book encouraging American Christians to indulge themselves? Do you know how many people you could feed and clothe with the money you used for your mansion, multiple private jets, and face lift?
Oh, and on the subject of her recent plastic surgery, she said that Jesus would want her to look her absolute best as she presented the gospel. Really, Joyce, really?

Didn't Jesus ride into town on a donkey? Surely he could have gotten a caravan or a chariot since he is the God of the universe. Thank heavens we have a humble God who doesn't flit about demanding to be noticed unlike certain popular evangelists...

Oh this is hilarious! I got into a slight argument with my last gf about this lady and her new book. Everything I have read about her is really disturbing.
We're at a sad place when book titles are called "Eat the Cookie, Buy the Shoes." It's almost as if we live in some vacuum that is completely unaware of a different lifestyle other than the American one. Personally, I think she is popular for the same reason most people are: She is reinforcing what people want to hear.
