Frankly I've read about Oprah's beliefs, and I agree with a lot of things she says.

#1: Oprah endorsing political figures. So do most Christian churches in the U.S., and that's in spite of something called "separation of Church and State". #2: Oprah leading astray. As far as I'm concerned, you all have nothing to support your arguments, so you can't claim that you aren't "leading astray" all the people who buy into your message. #3: "Church of Oprah". Please, that's as ridiculous as referring to the Christian church as a "cult". Actually, more so, as by all means most Christian churches are akin to cults by definition of their practices. A church requires veneration of both a religious theory and a figurehead. Not only do Oprah's beliefs fail to constitute a religious ideology (they don't concern the origins of the universe, merely our individual purposes within it), but Oprah does not establish herself as divine or worthy of worship. I totally appreciate that this was obviously put together by a fundamentalist/authoritative Christian, and if you want to embrace this view of Oprah Winfrey, be my guest. I, personally, see nothing wrong with her: she doesn't demand tithes or tributes, she doesn't threaten people using relative beliefs about Heaven and Hell/eternal torture, and she embraces different beliefs than her own.

Dr. Phil....eh. I kind of feel like he exploits people a lot. I'm not sure he means to, but I think he should stick to radio help and writing books. It allows for more anonymity, which allows trust, which I think is critical to actually help someone. That's kind of off topic, but anyway, Oprah is a good person. She is also one of the most generous personalities in the media. She is someone trying to make a true difference. I care about her beliefs as much as I do that Ron Paul is a Christian. Actions speak louder than words.
