What bothers me more is clearly some of us ARE that stupid
He lost all chances of cleaning up his credibility with the Hair debacle and that stuff about angels looking like us

In LS's defense, he was far from the only one to use that story for dramatic effect. Prior to the internet allowing for checking of sources this story was very well spread and well used, outside Apostolic ranks as well.
MANY preachers tend to not check sources for validity when it comes to good inspirational stories. My guess would be that LS did this same thing with this Osama's wives story. Someone he knew and respected todl him it happened so he believed them and used the story in a sermon. Happens quite often with many a preacher across denominal lines.
