I agree that Susan Boyle is a better role model.

I agree.

If Perez Hilton had not opened his vile mouth and complained no one in the Christian community would have paid much attention to her answer.

I agree. If she is a Christian she has a pastor who must surely be negligent if he is not discouraging her behaviour.

Yes, she shouldn’t be held as a role model because of her past-but would we have heard of her past if she answered politically correct? I highly doubt we would of.

Also what about other people being held as “Christian” role models(like some celebrities…from childrens TV shows)? Should anyone even be held as one, other than Our Lord? No, because nobody is perfect.

I have to agree with you. We are a twisted culture as it is. As Christians within this twisted culture we should seek to avoid causing others to sin in every way we can. I don’t understand how beautiful Christian women can flaunt their bodies without feeling their consciences being pricked. They must know they are encouraging lust in men. It’s so obvious! Why don’t they see it? I know someone personally who is a Christ follower yet does this kind of stuff. I think it’s because our culture has desensitized us to it and we can twist anything to fit our idea of acceptable if we try hard enough.

Yes, I think we need to be careful about who we hold up as a Christian role model for our daughters to emulate!

Thank goodness! I thought it was just me.
I thought that whole incident was very interesting because it highlighted the agenda that the judge ( Perez Hilton) was pursuing. The viciousness of his response was very telling.

However, I couldn’t make head or tail of Ms Prejeans equivocating, rambling response.
Whilst she wasn’t giving the big ‘right on’ thumbs up to gay marriage, neither was she ‘standing up for her beliefs’.
It’s something of a stretch to make her out to be Christ honoring heroine/martyr figure.

I agree with Sarah. Definitely proud of Miss California for answering with integrity when she could have certainly given a people pleasing answer. I mean, consider the source of the question! She definitely knew what side of the fence Perez Hilton sat on. However, at the time of the Miss USA pageant, I was not aware of the nude photos that nearly cost her the crown. Agreed, modesty is an issue, particularly in these pageants. I have known of Miss America contestants who have stayed modest the entire competition and even wore one piece bathing suits. It CAN be done.

I totally agree with you. I have been losing respect for FOTF for years now – ever since Dr. Dobson, whom I used to really respect, has that dreadful Ann Coulter on and fawned all over her for an entire episode. Though politically I often agree with them – I don’t tune in as often as I once did. Ann Coulter is no one a Christian ministry should be respecting, supporting or admiring. This is just another example of FOTF and Christians all over missing the point.

I have to agree that it is troubling that in our culture role models are more often than not chosen for their looks (actors, models, pageant contestants, etc.) or for some relatively useless skill they possess (sports talent, etc.).

My problem is not what she said, it’s that based on these words she’s being paraded as a great Christian role model.

I think the only reason she put it lightly was in hopes to not offend anyone. But in the end, she still did offend them.

I give her props for standing with her statement, I doubt most would of done that even after losing the crown. She was trying to stay true to herself and yet not gain any haters.

Could she have said it better? I’m sure she could of, but I still give her credit with standing up for what she believes in.
