Carrie Prejean

I'll spare you my thoughts on Carrie Prejean's loss of the Miss America crown. Oh what the heck, its B.S. she's beautiful and was a shoe in. She might have even won Ms. Universe but of course Perez Hilton came on with the Gay question and then demonized her. Sure, she was nervous and kinda fouled it up (opposite sex marriage?) but she stuck to her guns. I'm more upset at how utterly demonized she was by the media after her response. Its sad to see that this is the level of discourse today isn't it? A professor of mine calls it the Springer effect. Much like in Jerry Springer, the person who screams the loudest is the one who wins the argument? how sad. there is no actual educated debate. But I'll end that there.

I am sad though that she is suing now and getting media attention again. She is suing for religious discrimination. Its funny because all the clips of her are in a bikini. How religious is she really if she's strutting her stuff for men like that? Doesn't Christianity talk about modesty?

"9likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, 10 but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works." -1st Timothy 2:9-10

I'll just leave it at that...
