I believe that scripture says that it's a sin but I always follow that up by saying you know what, we're not against anybody."King pressed him to explain, commenting, "How can it be if we don't know what causes it? You don't know why you're a heterosexual.""There's a lot of things Larry that I don't understand- so I just don't want to preach on it, preach about it," Osteen said.
King enquired, "Does gay marriage annoy you?" Osteen said, "It doesn't annoy me. From a scripture point of view, it's not what my faith would teach, but it doesn't annoy me."Click here for more brief
