I know better than to watch television.  More so anytime Madonna will be opening her mouth.  Not because of the fake English accent or her snobby mannerism (I know, I am not being very Christ like, but I am ventiing big time...).

I decided to watch an interview since she recently adopted a child from Malawi, an African nation that I have a lot of interest in since we have been sponsoring a child there through World Vision for 10 years.  I shouldn't have bothered.

During the interview she shared that her kids are annoyed with her being on tour all the time so the reporter asked her why not stop for them?  After all she had all the money she could ever need, at which Madonna replied, that she had things to accomplish and that being a wife and mother was not all she wanted.  If you want to change things you need a platform to stand on.

So I suppose that those of us who are just a wife and mother have no role in changing the world.  Maybe if she spent more time developing the blessings she had been given already (her two children) she might see how she could change the world through them. 

I won't even start about the whole "singing while on the mirror laden crucifix" while on tour.  But I must post this quote she said in reference to why she feels it necessary...

"I am taking the teachings of Jesus, the essence of Jesus to say, look we have a problem here..."

Well said, Mrs. Ritchie.
