EO posted the clip below this morning, and it's astonishing. That it appeared on mainstream TV on a somehow still popular show makes it near miraculous. It takes about 0:25 before God is mentioned, and then it builds to some great statements by the 1:35 mark about weak Christianity, then it moves to a great line at the 1:55 mark: "I want a real chaplain, one who believes in a real God and a real hell." The rest of it is angry goodness.
I stopped watching ER ages ago, so can't say what happens the rest of this episode. Perhaps they whitewash religion later on. But at least for one moment, they perfectly depict the despair of a soul headed for eternal separation, and one who knows it, and one who demands actual truth rather than the spirituality preached by such snake-oil salesmen like Osteen. Watch the clip and ask yourself if your church is preaching definitive answers or feel-good pulp. And if the answer is the latter, ask yourself why you submit to weekly sessions of lies approved by the devil himself.
