THE UGLY FACE OF CHRISTIANITY

Seems like every time I turn around, someone is lashing out at homosexuals, immigrants or some other minority "in the name of the Lord." It's been getting me down. We have a president who waves his conservative Christianity in our faces as the core of his moral philosophy. He uses his religious beliefs to defend his position against gay marriage. Whatever happened to a separation of church and state? Have we forgotten how dangerous it is to let leaders be guded by their own particular faith? These are frightening times in America. G.W. has traded his addiction to alcohol and cocaine for an addiction to conservative religious dogma, and he's dipping the flag of our country in this holy manure. [My apologies to the chimp pictured alongside the presidential boob. I'm sure the comparison is extremely lopsided and unfair to you.]

Last year, I watched WOMAN THOU ART LOOSED on video. It was a very effective and moving film about a woman's redemption. I was impressed. Then I started to learn about T.D. Jakes, the preacher who's ministry financed the film in which he also makes a cameo appearance. I confess I was ignorant to this fatheaded idiot, but I soon learned about his extremist Pentacostal views of homosexuality and gay marriage. This lisping waterheaded twit travels around the world, broadcasts on radio and television spreading his poisonous message of intolerance "in the name of the Lord." He rakes in millions of dollars through is books, speaking engagements and subsidies from the Conservative Right who are using T.D. Jokes and other likeminded African-American preachers to spread their campaign against gay marriage, which is a campaign against Equal Rights for all. It's sickening to me. I intend to be careful about the movies I rent or buy tickets to see from now on.

I was a fan of Mansdisa from the very first time I saw her on American Idol. I even voted for her last week before she was eliminated from the show. The next day, I started seeing articles about her strong religious beliefs and her intolerance toward homosexuals. I couldn't believe it. I thought it was some kind of smear campaign. Then I read an interview with her on The Advocate website. She spoke of how her religion does not accept homosexuality and neither does she. When asked if she would ever perform at an event that was sponsored by gays, she said "No." I was heartbroken. Once again the ugly face of Christianity has spit in my eye. I'm glad Mandisa is off American Idol now, because I no longer have to look at her face. A face I once considered attractive, but now, all I see is the ugliness of intolerance.

I will no longer support any person, organization, film, book, entertainer or anyone else I find to be intolerant of homosexuality. I loved Beanie Man and a lot of other reggae artists, but until they stop voicing their anti-gay venom, I will no longer purchase or even listen to their music. It's time for me to become radical, too. I'm tired of being hurt these morons who express their hatred and make no connection to the fact that they are just another in a long line of persecutors who will eventually fall because they are wrong.

When I was a boy, I was taught "God is Love." I still believe that. I refuse to align my God with intolerant organized religions who spread hatred in his name. AMEN!

QUESTIONS???

Why Can't NAOMI CAMPBELL Just Say "Kiss My Ass" and keep her cell phone to herself??? It's a beautiful ass. One of the loveliest in the world. Unfortunately, the ass we're talking about is on her head! This woman is a menace to minimum wage workers. The scourge of Assistants across the globe. For the fourth time, she has been arrested for assaulting an assistant, with a cell phone!

The heiffer is obviously made out of teflon. After a series of assaults, even threatening to push one assistant out of a moving car after she assaulted her with another cell phone (Bitch must get free minutes for this stunt!) she has yet to serve time in jail for her evil rampages! Anger Management obviously ain't a major ingredient in this Campbells soup. Obviously, Russell Crowe needs to get on the phone (oops! maybe they should use email) with Naomi and figure out how she gets away with throwing communication devices at underlings, when he did the same thing to a hotel worker and lost out on a shot at an Oscar!

President Bush should hire Naomi as the face of the Guest Worker Program! She could easily be a spokesperson for jobs Americans just won't do. We need guest workers, because nobody else will wash this guttersnipes' draws and let her hit them in the head with a phone and not KILL DA BITCH!



BRANDY! What the hell??? Looks like somebody is on the Whitney Houston Crack & Cigarettes Diet. The poor child ain't even filling out her panties anymore. Brandy, seriously, eat a biscuit and stop running after basketball players who play you again and again. PREDICTION: Implants before the next CD release, desperate times take desperate measures.





WHY CAN'T THE BOYS BE MORE LIKE ELLEN? Ellen Degeneres is at the peak of her career, and she's out and proud. Yes, she went through a lot of hell when she first came out, but her talent cannot be denied. She's at the top of her game with her talk show, which means she is embraced by the millions of str8 women who tune in everyday, and the sponsors who once walked away are now lining up to sell their wares on her show. Now when are some closeted celebrity males going to come out and be a role model for the boys? Ryan???

What the HELL is Teri Hatching? I read Teri Hatcher's tearful article in Vanity Fair. The sexual abuse ordeal she went through as a child was horrendous. So was her marriage, that was so sexless that she can pinpoint the day she conceived her daughter because she and her husband only had sex once that year! An now this... Teri has chosen to give her heart, hank of hair and bones to Ryan Seacrest. This sniveling, preening, oportunistic runt is a one way ticket to another sexless marriage. I can see it now, Teri Hatcher, Liza Minelli, Terry MacMillan, and Star Jones starring in, "Desperate Beards." Why Teri, why? Well, I guess you can look forward to sharing clothes and hair care products.

How Did It Last So Long? Russell & Kimora Lee Simmons have announced their divorce. I'm so sad I'm spitting up last weeks chicken bones! If the queen of Relentless Consumption and the King of Yoga & Franchise-zation can't make a go of it in any one of their six homes, then is there any hope for the rest of us? I must admit I have a soft spot in my head for Kimora. The Vanity Fair interview she did last year had me rolling on the couch laughing. The way she swore she would "beat a bitches' ass!" if she ever found Russell with another woman was classic Drag Queen Chic! But now that her Baby Phat line is outselling Russell's Phat Farm brand, I guess Kimoron has outgrown her diminuitive hubby. The biggest thing about Russell was his wallet, and now hers is bigger and harder than his. I wish the soon-to-be former Mrs. Simmons the best in her quest to be the soon-to-be former Ru Paul.




What in the 'Clay Aiken' happened to the Canadian Idol? Most of you probably don't know Kalan Porter, the second Canadian Idol. I was in Vancouver the year he won, and he was a really cute Canadian farm boy with, a great voice. Now, it looks like he's turned into one of Ellen's X-wives! Boy, you need to get back to your roots. Death to stylists!!!
