Its just inappropriate. I think we can agree on that.<br /><br />Frankly, this contest is 99% about T&A. To try to infuse some socially conscious, or political agenda to it is bullshit. We aren't electing a President.... they were selecting a manniquin. <br />If these women had genuine intellect they wouldn't need to enlarge their breasts and enter a beauty contest to begin with. <br /><br />Thanks for your comment.<br /><br />HumpDromedary Humphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165566701791663057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3488651241352366915.post-49690601561049751832009-06-01T23:06:53.896-04:002009-06-01T23:06:53.896-04:00The judges could pick questions from a pre determi...The judges could pick questions from a pre determined and approved list. The gay judge didn't just up and decide to pick on poor miss brain-dead for no reason. All of the contestants were asked questions from this list. I don't think it was unfair nor do I think it was irrelevent to the image that this pageant is supposed to broadcast. Perhaps things would have been better if the question had been off the list altogether.. but it wasn't and thus was fair game. The other side of it is that many of those vapid barbies probably would have given similar answers.. she was just unlucky enough to draw the short straw.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08552288778897470208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3488651241352366915.post-43762734279439912492009-05-25T18:48:24.461-04:002009-05-25T18:48:24.461-04:00I agree, the question shouldn't have been asked(a ...I agree, the question shouldn't have been asked(a beauty pageant isn't exactly a proper place to discuss politics)and she answered respectfully.

We'd all be better off if they would have just let you report this on our evening news. <br /><br />But I actually think the girls answer kinda shocked him. He looked horrified? I imagine that's how his poor dad looked all the next day at work?<br /><br />I left a message for you, over at Makarios site.

I don't define that. Making up def...Well Makarios,<br /><br />I don't define that. Making up definitions is the trait of theists. Christian Fundamentalism is defined for us. <br /><br />A person who is a Christian Fundamentalist ".. actively affirms a fundamental set of Christian beliefs: the inerrancy of the Bible, Sola Scriptura, the virgin birth of Christ, the doctrine of substitutionary atonement, the bodily resurrection of Jesus, and the imminent personal return of Jesus Christ."<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamentalist_Christianity<br /><br /><br />Now, here's a thought...why don't you ask her if she embraces that doctrine. Everything she has said publicly about her faith so far says she does. Thus, she is a Fundamentalist.<br /><br />And since when do Christians see the fundamentalist perspective as a pejorative term?? Pat Robertson doesn't, Falwell didn't, Ted Haggard identified himself with it... lots of Evangelicals do. <br /><br />Or are you ignorant of that fact? <br /><br />No, I call someone who says something I don't like a "douchebag." That many douchbags are Christians and Fundamentalists is an unfortunate fact.<br /><br />Regards,<br />HumpDromedary Humphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165566701791663057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3488651241352366915.post-15164727484903687582009-05-08T20:01:00.000-04:002009-05-08T20:01:00.000-04:00You think she's a Christian Fundamentalist?
