She says, "God made man in his image....God is about feeling not believing, if you are stuck in a believing religion, then you haven't found God."

Well, if Oprah believes this then she is a heretic and pagan. But I don't understand where they get this new church thing from, and who is the funny little fellow she is interviewing?
It's an online class that she is "team teaching" if you will. 2 million people have enrolled to learn what she's talking about in this video. This is NOT her regular show but rather a lesson/class called "Course in Miracles." This is why they are referring to it as a "church." The guy's name is Eckhart Tolle. Thanks to Oprah's endorsement and her little class here, his book (as of yesterday or the day before) is #2 on the Amazon booklist (in purchases). She wields HUGE influence.
