NBC Still Plans to Air Madonna on Crucifix

Posted in In the News

NBC Moves Ahead With Plans To Air Madonna's Scene Mocking The Crucifixion of Christ

 

"Crucifixes are sexy because there's a naked man (Jesus) on them." - Madonna

 

From the American Family Association's website:

 

     Despite 739,989 emails asking the network to cancel Madonna's mocking of the crucifixion of Christ in an up-coming November special, NBC still plans to air the crucifixion mockery scene.

     NBC said they found nothing wrong with the scene mocking the crucifixion of Christ. Such was not the case when NBC refused to show Danish newspaper cartoons depicting Muhammad in a negative light. NBC's message? Show respect for Muslims, but it is ok to bash Christians.

     In the special, Madonna, wearing a fake crown of thorns, descends on a suspended mirrored, disco ball-type cross. 

     Madonna has mocked Christ for many years. In 1989 she released a video for the song "Like A Prayer." The video featured burning crosses, statues crying blood and Madonna--representing Jesus--freeing a saint from his sexual repression by seducing him.

 

Please go to AFA's website by clicking any of the blue words above and sign their petition asking top companies not to sponsor Madonna's program. You will also see two pictures from the crucifixion scene. We must make a lot of noise about this. Jesus did more than we could ever hope or ask for on the cross -- don't let this woman and NBC continue to heap disgrace on that incredible gift.

One of the reasons we need to teach our children to speak up for their beliefs is this double standard that says that tolerance and free speech is for everyone in America...except Christians!

About Me

Are you homeschooling ... anyway? Very few of us, if any, escape the tragedies and other disappointments of life. In the summer of 2004, we experienced a tragedy of our own with the death of our pre-born baby. It was a devastating blow, but that year we homeschooled ... anyway. We were blessed with another little one, but were soon face to face with my husband's cancer diagnosis (multiple myeloma) in early 2006. And like we did 3 years ago, we are still homeschooling...anyway. If you need support, encouragement, or just want to know what "a day in the life" is like for another family who chooses to continue homeschooling in spite of difficulties, stick around! I'm glad you're here, and that I can be here, too, to share the ups and downs (even the days when I feel like I'm skidding sideways) of our homeschooling family: Dad, Mom, two teenagers, a preteen, and a toddler. Any typos I will blame on Bethany, who likes to smack the keyboard while I'm holding her and trying to type one-handed. ;-)
