Breast Augmentation for Jesus?
Published May 3rd, 2009 by Editor in American "Christianity"Carrie Prejean, the first runner-up in the recent Miss USA beauty contest now being lauded as a great Christian role model by many who ought to know better, says she was “tested” by God:
where she answered that she was against gay marriage becoming legal in California. “[Gay judge Perez Hilton] asked me for my opinion and I gave it to him. I have nothing against gay people and I didn’t mean to offend anyone in my answer.”
Over at Slice of Laodicea Ingrid Schlueter later writes:
Carrie Prejean is a type of the evangelical church in our culture. Simply Jesus is not enough. We augment the message of the Gospel with flesh to attract admiration from the unregenerate. The fakery that produced the body of this woman is the embodiment of the fakery of the false church in America that is in bed with the world…
Well, we might also add that the body Jesus gave her was apparently not good enough for her either. So in sacrificing for the sake of her Christian “witness” (but of course) Prejean decided to “augment” her own flesh, presumably “to attract admiration” of the judges, with a little “fakery” of her own as well:
According to Shanna Moakler, co-executive director of Miss California USA, the group behind the pageant paid for Miss California Carrie Prejean’s breast implants, just weeks before the competition. In an interview with “Access Hollywood,” Billy Bush asked Moakler, “Did you guys pay for it?” “Yes,” Moakler responded. “We did.”
“It was something that we all spoke about together,” Moakler said referring to herself, Prejean and Keith Lewis, Moakler’s co-executive director. “It was an option and she wanted it. And we supported that decision.”
So are we to now kneel in prayer thanking God that in His mercy He kindly ”provided” Moakler with the funds to give Prejean her “option” of breast implants in order to make her more beautiful? Nah.
We’re reminded of the classic hit record of satire called Troglodyte by the Jimmy Castor Bunch where, chiding the alleged Cave Man practice of dragging a woman home by her hair the singer says, “You can’t do that today fellas; cuz it might come off.”
CRN agrees with Schuleter, who at last check is a Christian woman herself, who said: “If this is an example of Christian womanhood, who needs it?”
