Oprah Winfrey, one of the most powerful, wealthy, and influential women in the world. It is not, however, her views on race that concern me as much as her views and criticisms about the Bible.

Oprah has launched book sales and resuscitated careers for many authors and gurus while giving proponents of higher spirituality a platform, particularly those who promote a New Age philosophy.
