Dressing Up as Lady Gaga This Halloween is a Sin Against Jesus

Lady Gaga is a Sin Against Jesus

October is the cruelest month for Christians in America. The summer is over, school semesters are underway and we look forward to the special joys of Thanksgiving and Christmas. The one tragic distraction in the middle of all that cheer is the institutionalized celebration of a pagan festival. Many will throw themselves wholeheartedly into this barbaric affair, spending hours making effeminate costumes, stocking up on overpriced sweets and decorating their homes with pentagrams and skeletons. Why do so many Christians willfully engage in this vile, hedonistic ritual? Of course, I’m talking about Halloween.

Deuteronomy 18:10-11 warns us, “Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.”

As this year’s tyranny of October 31st approaches, it should come as no surprise that young people across the nation are eagerly planning to dress up as one of the most polymorphously perverse celebrities around: Lady Gaga. Never heard of Lady Gaga? She’s a crude and talentless musician who somehow fell into the hands of a few millionaire marketers early in her unimpressive career. Sparing no expense, they reinvented this homely child as a studio-synthesized train wreck of garish makeup, bad decisions and 80s fashions piled so high that you wouldn’t believe there is a human being hidden within. Her music is painfully obtuse. It wreaks havoc on the brains of the innocent, turning the most simple to violence and vulgarity. Her videos, embedded on the blogs and Myspace pages of almost every American teen, show ladies in tight rubber Luftwaffe uniforms writhing in prison cells while men rub their rank, engorged speedos together in the background. And then the perversion gets worse. She is, quite simply, reprehensible.

For those of us who believe in the greatness of the United States of America, this is a disgrace. Is there any clearer sign that our Christian faith is being attacked on our very own soil? “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness,” Ephesians tells us, “but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.” How, then, can we let this Lady Gaga into our children’s bedrooms late at night? Yes, via the Youtube videos and Facebook, she sneaks into bed with your kids, slipping beneath their silky sheets as the moon rises and common sense descends. Our young people will grab onto any excuse for a rancid release! Her ambiguity confuses and delights. She is the principal reason the youth of America no longer understand gender roles. Do our boys know about strength and wisdom? Do our girls understand morality? No, they’d rather gather in the dank caverns of her sexualized unisex identity, trading spit like they trade clothes, unsure who the man is and who the woman is and how the act gets done but get done it does! And it gets done many times over! Thanks to various Obama Administration initiatives and the growing power of the liberal elite, public schools today teach every obscure characteristic of the world’s most radical sex acts, things that would be unimaginable to any loving parent– bondage gear, bodily secretions, dungeon clamps, prison shower roleplay, multiethnic orgies, lives destroyed, futures sacrficed for a moment of vain discharge…

“I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” –2 Timothy 4:1-4

Maybe our sins are too great. Maybe America is being punished. Our children will certainly suffer. Any parent that allows a girl or boy to dress like this monster Gaga is gambling away a precious, beautiful soul. And any liberated teen or 20-something who believes this is exciting is just tempting a dire fate. Do you (yes you, young lady, with your hay bale hair extensions!) truly know what you’re doing? What do you think all that serene youthful flesh you dare expose in your filthy costume says about you? The unclasped skirt, the torn leggings, the dangerously high heels… Is this what you want to be when you grow up? A drugged-out artist with horror-show eyeliner and black fingernails to claw the damp inner thighs of aroused college boys in bathroom stalls? Stomping into the night afterward, once his drippings dry on your ankle and your nasal passages have been plugged full of the latest street drug?

And you boys! You sad, sad, boys! How can Lady Gaga be your idol in the mirror? Was your childhood so terrible that you must punish your parents like this? What refuge is there in those lustrous wigs, the viciously black stilettos, the pantyhose that crushes your manhood into a potato salad of denial? Please do not become the mouthy harlot that tricks drunken men into alleyways! Why must you hate? Why must you punish the very nobility of masculinity? How can you destroy the beauty of man– muscles that shine wet after a day of honest labor, the athlete in a crisp uniform dominating his foes on the field, the brimming grin of confidence that says, “I am a man and I love it!” The rise and the glory, the victory and the sweat! I pray for you, we all pray for you, we all pray and pray and hope that somehow you escape the worst of these needs and desires. There is always hope! Hope!

The genuine dangers here are shocking and immense. One is normally hesitant to be so graphic when delving into sin, but parents and young people truly need to be made aware. When Halloween arrives, the plague of Satan is awakened in spirits everywhere. He stalks our streets, looking for the slightest weakness. And we all know that our children can be very weak when tempted with easy pleasure. After all, what is this pagan ritual ultimately? It’s an excuse for cross-dressing and sexual promiscuity. It’s the pedophile’s fantasy scenario of being allowed to approach any child with warm hugs and candy. The criminally demented cherish it as a time when apples are stuffed with razor blades or chocolate bars drugged with chloral hydrate. For those of us who regularly patrol our neighborhoods, it is the most gripping night we will encounter. What could be more gut-wrenching than to stand silently by as children, high on sugar and indulgence, baring flesh in their salacious costumes, explore the vibrant shadows of Halloween steps away from our very doors and bulkheads, unaware of what lurks directly behind them?

    Boo frickedy hoo.

    “stocking up on overpriced sweets”

    Uh, Halloween candy is pretty reasonably priced, actually.

    “Of course, I’m talking about Halloween.”

    That sentence was unnecessary, as you not only put “Halloween” right in the title, but anybody with half a brain can gather that you’re referring to it.

    “It wreaks havoc on the brains of the innocent, turning the most simple to violence and vulgarity.”

    That was the funniest crap I have ever read! Its creepy the way to write about boys, I think you have some sexuall issues & most likely sexist. Christians stole all their holidays & symbolism from the pagans. The way you judge & preach hate is gross, I hope your god punishes you for this.

  • “The criminally demented cherish it as a time when apples are stuffed with razor blades or chocolate bars drugged with chloral hydrate.”

    Too many movies for you billings..We are a christian family as well and we take our children trick or treating in a well lit and well to do neighborhood..In OUR neighborhood everyone knows everyone..You should lay off the sweets and quit assuming everyone is out to get everyone..sounds like paranoia to me.

    ” For those of us who regularly patrol our neighborhoods, it is the most gripping night we will encounter.”
    If you “regularly” patrol your neighborhood as you claim,What are you worried about?
    What could be more gut-wrenching than to stand silently by as children, high on sugar and indulgence, baring flesh in their salacious costumes, explore the vibrant shadows of Halloween steps away from our very doors and bulkheads, unaware of what lurks directly behind them?

    “bulkheads”? what are you on a ship now too sailing from island to island?
    What could be more gut wrenching?hmm,I can think of many scenarios..such as your child choking and turning blue because a piece of hot dog was lodged in his throat,etc..
    If you really think that little,then shut your curtains,lock your door and be a coward behind closed doors.Let children be children and enjoy the festivities of life.I am sure parents will be doing fine at making sure their children are safe.As a parent of 2 children,I resent you saying such rubbish.I had many memorable times going treat or treating as a child with my parents and I want my children to have the same if not better memories.

  • //The one tragic distraction in the middle of all that cheer is the institutionalized celebration of a pagan festival.//

    Two things, 1. no one forces you to take part in Halloween, if you don’t like it, you can simply turn your porch light off and close the curtains and maybe post a note saying “no candy” or something like that somewhere so that people know to not to go to your house. 2. Your precious holiday called ‘Christmas’ is NOT what you think it is, and it originated as a pagan holiday as well called Saturnalia, which was just about the same thing, so saying shit about Halloween is akin to saying shit about Christmas when it comes to it’s origins.

    //Thanks to various Obama Administration initiatives and the growing power of the liberal elite, public schools today teach every obscure characteristic of the world’s most radical sex acts, things that would be unimaginable to any loving parent– bondage gear, bodily secretions, dungeon clamps, prison shower roleplay, multiethnic orgies, lives destroyed, futures sacrficed for a moment of vain discharge…//

    More hate towards Obama for no reason whatsoever. Seriously, you’re bitching about Halloween, Obama, and Lady Gaga in the same damn blog post, what the fuck is your point?

    //Deuteronomy 18:10-11 warns us, “Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.”//

    What’s with the fucking quote? Are there really so many people who sacrifice their kid for witchcraft on Halloween that it warrants you bitching about it? Halloween is all about people getting into various costumes, of either scary monsters or their favorite character from something, and getting expensive candy to hand to them, you either hand candy out or stay inside and throw some scary movies on or just do something else. It’s a holiday, and no one is holding a gun to your head to make you hand stuff out, so you could just sit on your fat ass and eat two or three cheeseburgers and watch a movie.

My words are a far better accurate depiction of me than any silly link on my facebook profile. That you would believe something so pointless is ridiculous. People send me things all the time and I click on them. Once, a 14 year old girl hacked my profile so that it said I was I married to her and a thousand people called me a pedophile. It was a mistake. You need to seriously CALM DOWN! I am really getting sick of your nonsense. You’ve become obsessed and it’s not healthy.

            Unfortunately,this person has no honor,if he had any he would have admitted to having marijuana on his facebook page and being incomplete with everyone.I however did screenshots on ALL of his likes and all of them will be posted on the net.why?

            Better get your stories straight now billings.

            “Brandon, if you somehow believe that I am in favor of drug legalization you are simply mistaken.”
            Mistaken?likes dont just pop onto your facebook page by accident so try that excuse on someone else.You had to click on like in order for it to get on your page.
            “My words are a far better accurate depiction of me than any silly link on my facebook profile.”
            They haven’t been so far to date..
            ” That you would believe something so pointless is ridiculous. People send me things all the time and I click on them.”
            Do you even read what they are BEFORE clicking on them?If not then that’s your stupidity..don’t try to cover and say you don’t like marijuana when it was on your page.
            ” Once, a 14 year old girl hacked my profile so that it said I was I married to her and a thousand people called me a pedophile. It was a mistake.”
            Sure it was,just like the marijuana like and having gay friends..

            Why don’t you go enlist in the military and do some of what I did..serve the country well.You probably wouldnt have the guts or balls to do that I’m sure.I have 4 medals and 12 kills under my belt.And for what?I relive most of the shit Ive seen every night and day.It doesnt go away,Like you care right?
            ” This is not the right place for people of your mindset.”
            Fuck you,I earned the right to be where I want to be.I served my country in more ways than you EVER will..

  • Another issue:
    To call these articles “journalism” is incorrect.True journalism is free from ANY bias which may affect the ability to keep the journalism neutral and not biased.
    Biased opinions (religion included) is not considered true journalism
    Your “journalism’ is what is know as media biased journalism.

    “Media bias refers to the bias of journalists and news producers within the mass media in the selection of which events and stories are reported and how they are covered. The term “media bias” implies a pervasive or widespread bias contravening the standards of journalism, rather than the perspective of an individual journalist or article. The direction and degree of media bias in various countries is widely disputed.

    Practical limitations to media neutrality include the inability of journalists to report all available stories and facts, and the requirement that selected facts be linked into a coherent narrative.[1] Since it is impossible to report everything, selectivity is inevitable. Government influence, including overt and covert censorship, biases the media in some countries. Sociological factors that bias the media include group or class attitudes and preferences of journalists, and of the wider world of intellectual culture from which journalists emerge and whose context the media in turn shape. Market forces that result in a biased presentation include the ownership of the news source, concentration of media ownership, the selection of staff, the preferences of an intended audience, and pressure from advertisers.”

    Also you and christwire and bowers the 3rd are known as a “Hostile media effect”

    The hostile media effect, sometimes called the hostile media phenomenon, refers to the finding that people with strong biases toward an issue (partisans) perceive media coverage as biased against their opinions, regardless of the reality. Proponents of the hostile media effect argue that this finding cannot be attributed to the presence of bias in the news reports, since partisans from opposing sides of an issue rate the same coverage as biased against their side and biased in favor of the opposing side.[1] The phenomenon was first proposed and studied experimentally by Robert Vallone, Lee Ross and Mark Lepper.[1][2]
    Again,my source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostile_media_effect

    You and your fellow christwire writers would possibly gain more attention and less negative focus.You represent less than 13% of the majority worldwide who share your views..Maybe it’s time to rethink your actions and the way you go about things.Focus on real issues at hand such as global hunger and education..
    Realize that certain issues such as marijuana and homosexuality are losing issues for your cause.It is the same in war,one must realize when to call the battle,especially if one is outnumbered.I believe that you truly do care about people’s well beings,but there are much better issues to tackle than those.And attacking a character on television who is paid to advertise for a company,is certainly not a worthy cause.Yes,that is my opinion and I have every right to it,as do you have the right to feel how you feel about it.But certainly Mr. Billings,publicly posting all your personal feelings about someone is not going to garner much support in your corner.Now,However if you were to say you were against Bp and the oil spill and all the damage it caused not only to god’s earth and creatures and etc,instead of say,worry about whether someone is going to dress up as a singer for Halloween.Yes,Halloween is not a holy event,yes,but it is one that has been going on for centuries.Now people should be allowed to celebrate all holidays,I don’t feel that any person should be denied the right to celebrate what they feel like celebrating.To deny is to partially crush the human spirit.That would be a sin.We are allowed to celebrate Christmas and the birth of Christ as well as celebrate Easter in the spring.
    Real issues would gain your cause more followers and I think most people would agree with me.But to attack peoples’ feelings and lives is not a christian way.
    I hope you take what I say with a grain of salt.

      “My family does not celebrate it or participate in Halloween. We do not believe that our children are “missing out,” and neither do they. Other days are used for costumes and parties. Happily, all of our children have accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.

  • Asheville Christian

    Thank you for your enlightening articles.
    Luckly my son does not listen to Lady Gaga but you should really look into this “GalaxC Girl” character here in Asheville, NC. She is becoming very popular very fast and is corrupting the minds of all our youth. There were even a few girls that dressed as her for Halloween last year and now she is even more popular!
    She is doing “DJ + VJ performances” so she has twice as much corruptive influence as a regular DJ with huge screens of crazy and sometimes vulgar visuals.
    My son is obsessed with her and goes to all her shows and it is upsetting to see him come home in an extremely elated state. I fear that she is putting masturbation spells on the boys and parents need to be warned.
    I even saw her post one time that she wants to turn all the kids into “SUPER FREAKS”! I am very concerned she could become more dangerous than Lady Gaga.
    Here is her website/facebook page: http://www.galaxcgirl.com

    “The one tragic distraction in the middle of all that cheer is the institutionalized celebration of a pagan festival”

    You obviously don’t understand that the majority of christian holidays take a lot of traditions (i.e. time of year, name, ceremonies) from Pagan traditions. Watch out, better not let your kids celebrate Christmas, that evil institutionalized pagan holiday tries to corrupt our children into becoming materialist heathens! Also, in what way is Halloween “institutionalized”? To the best of my understanding it is neither a statutory holiday nor state enforced.

        Yea, I did, it is, unlike Halloween, an INSTITUTIONALIZED holiday. And, like Halloween, it is a pagan holiday, modeled after the celebration of the winter solstice, namely the holiday Yule. I would also condescendingly ask if you “somehow miss that day in grade school?” but as you are an American i can only assume you were defaulted with some of the worst educational programs available where god and superstition are held in higher esteem then fact and reason.

    • You say that I do not represent Christianity, you say that I am outside of the mainstream, you label me a radical, but are you truly so blind to the passion of Evangelicals in America today? I’m not alone, in fact I’m part of a very large community that people like you pretend do not exist. My journalism follows closely the work of Dr James Dobson who created one of the most successful faith-based organizations in this country, helping families deal with the crises of pornography, sexuality and drug addiction. Have you never heard of Focus on the Family?

      My information about homosexuality comes from the groundbreaking Christian organization Americans for Truth About Homosexuality, run by Peter LaBarbera who has an incredible track record exposing the lies of the liberal left and promoting a conscientious and Biblical approach to the gay problem. And I am joined in this fight by the Family Research Council (Tony Perkins) and the National Organization of Marriage (Maggie Gallagher), both groups so massive and important that surely some of your friends and neighbors are adamant supporters. If you disagree with me on these issues, you are disagreeing with all these millions of Americans around you.

      My reading of the Bible and my dedication to Christ’s Words are wholly in line with what Evangelicals are preaching all across this great country. I fight against the “deviancy cabal” drawing directly on the Biblical teachings of renowned scholars like the Reverends Bryan Fischer, Lou Engle, Rick Joyner, Estus Pirkle and Joel Osteen to name but a few. I also am a fervent supporter of the Reverend Dr. Pat Robertson who has literally touched tens of millions with his 700 Club ministry and Liberty University. My beliefs rarely stray from Pat’s guiding light. When it comes to radical feminism, there is Constitutional attorney Phyllis Schlafly who has wrestled against it for decades. She is known the world over for her advocacy and love of Jesus. You think I imagine the discrimination and bigotry our faith faces every day? Read the journalism of David Limbaugh (brother of Rush).

      When it comes to politics, you seem equally out of touch. It’s people like you who fail to understand why those of us in the Tea Party are so engaged. We love this country, we want to do everything we can to save it. Honor, integrity and the Constitution are vital to us. I will not abandon that and looking around at the town hall meetings, the protest marches, the rise of our candidates, we are making an impression. We are an integral part of the United States and if you’re so conceited that you can’t be bothered to recognize the revolution happening before your very eyes, I really don’t know what to say.

      You try to malign me, cast me aside but you fail to see I am simply a man who is but one of you. I’m dedicated and I’m honest. I speak the truths that are being spoken by countless others all across this glorious country. It’s not me, it’s “we.”

And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love. Set thou a wicked man over him; and let SATAN stand at his right hand.

  • Hey you can say what you want about your religious beliefs and how you do not agree with Halloween celebrations and so forth. Also you can go ahead and say that some of the stage antics performed by Lady Gaga are offensive to you.

    But to call her talentless and unimpressive? Have you ever, even, heard her music before? She’s pretty talented, actually. There’s a reason she has become as famous as she is. The girl learned to play piano at the age of 4, and even went on to write a ballad – via piano – at age 13. She studied and performed theater in high school, including most of the famous musicals we all enjoy today (i.e. Guys and Dolls) plus she gained early admission into a prestigious NYC school of the arts where she studied songwriting, art, religion, and politics.

    She worked for Sony, Interscope records, and wrote songs for people like Britney Spears, New Kids on the Block, Fergie, and more.

    Her music combines multiple genres of music, ranging from 1980′s hair-band drums, to metal, to urban hip-hop, to disco.

    The content of her lyrics does not suffer, like most of the other hiphop songs you will find in the mainstream – she is not fixated on writing songs that only talk about drinking in the clubs, but also writes lyrics regarding other topics that provide more interesting content to match the music.

    Her influences range from Versace, to Queen, to David Bowie, to Blondie, to Gwen Stefani – all some of the most influential people of our time, despite whatever you may find “immoral” about them. I’m sure you could find something immoral about the Dalai Lama, himself, so there’s probably no impressing you.

    Talentless.

    psh.

    You don’t even know what you are talking about.

    I’d like to see what your music collection consists of…

    I’d like to see what kind of artwork you hang on your walls…

  • “Claire, no one seriously has called me a pedophile. Stop saying that. It’s very hurtful and demeaning.”

    Actually, we all have been VERY serious in calling you a pedophile. The warning bells were going off in our heads the second you mentioned that you took boys on camping trips into the Tennessee mountains. That, coupled with the fact that you’re unmarried, have no kids of your own, are a clown, bear an uncanny resemblance to John Wayne Gacey, hit on me when you knew I was only 18, and said yourself that you like to stand outside playgrounds and watch the children play, but that of late you’ve been standing further away so as not to “make the mothers nervous”.

      • As I’ve said before, you are VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND on facebook, due to how many people there are in the world with the incredibly common, dull name of Adam Nelson. There are over 500 people on facebook with your name. Thus, everybody knows that you are lying out your ass about me “stalking” you.

        That being said, I know that you will persist in this lie, so I’ll ask you to post proof. Simply take a screenshot of the supposed messages I’ve been sending you on facebook, upload the picture to tinypic.com, and post the link as a reply to this post. Failure to do so will simply prove that you’re lying.

        And if we ever do meet for coffee or a sandwich, it will be the end of your life. Mark my words, Adam. MARK MY WORDS. You better pray to your god that we never meet. I’m still trying to decide whether your death should be fast and gory, or slow and painful.

  • why are you ignorant dumbasses so afraid of halloween? It’s a pagan holiday? News flash: If you’d take your head out of your ass and research anything about your precious christmas you’d learn that your christ wasn’t actually born on december 25. I won’t even pretend to know every single detail (on the off chance one of you bible mongering chuckle heads aren’t thick as a rock) but christmas falls on or pretty close to the winter solstice, which is a significant pagan holiday/ritual/something like that. Christmas is a rebranded and renamed pagan ritual. You’re all secretly satanists. Enjoy your eternal damnation.

    • Just thought I’d shed some light on the whole “When was Christ born” thing.

      According to the bible, the biggest clue we have was that the shepherds were watching their sheep in the fields at night. According to ancient records, it was too costly to spend so much time watching the her 100% of the time, so they only spent the nights with the flock when the lambs were being born, because there could have been birthing complications and predators galore during that season. Lambs are born in the spring. Therefore, if the shepherds were watching their flocks by night when Jesus was born, it was in the spring.

      So much for a white Christmas, eh?

      Also, the three wise men didn’t come until years later when Jesus was a child in a house.

    If it is, someone needs to come out of the closet and see a psychiatrist like now. Maybe even admit themselves to the loony bin.

    Also, perhaps you should listen to Lady Gaga a bit more. She talks a lot about god raising her to what she is today and loving everyone. Also, she’s not talentless, her producers are idiots and decided to heavily auto-tune everything she does. Go look up some of her acoustic and live performances.

  • What if someone dressed up as Jesus for Halloween and gave blowjobs to homeless people. Would that be a sin? I mean, homeless people need blowjobs too, right? Or, I could dress up as Jesus and go on a murderous rampage on Muslims, would that be in accordance with the bible?

    I was actually going to dress up as Stevie Billings and hang out at Chuck E. Cheese and the McDonald’s Playhouse.

  • I hate to tell you guys the obvious, but Concervative Christian Values is oxymoronic. It may be possible to be both Republican and Christian, but it would require serious repentance and the forgiveness and grace that you’d be requiring God to provide is, while not beyond Gods means, a lot to ask.

    Dear Billings,

    You obviously have no idea who Lady Gaga really is. Have you ever seen any of her interviews, do you know anything about her past? she was in broadway before she became famous. she always dressed up in the same glam she does now that shes famous. it was HER CHOICE not some marketing agent’s to dress the way she does.
    Her voice is so powerful and amazing to hear. as a singer, i look up to her for her vocals very much. as a matter of fact why dont you listen to her song “Speechless” on youtbe. you will hear a voice so powerful you’ll be blown away. sure I would never dress like her, but thats because I dont have the guts to do that.
    your article creeped me out. i hope no child ever gets left alone in a room with your crazy christian self. you’ve totally been driven mad by your faith.

    Stephanson Billings is a lost case people. I dont think he’ll ever be normal!

  • First to the whacked-out broad who things Gaga is a sinner. Gods doesn’t hate anyone you fukcing idiot If your God does then perhaps you’re praying t the wrong God. Something to think about instead of bullshit like Halloween is a sinners day. Anyone who buys that bowl of bull-shit soup deserves to hang with the crazy lady who speaks for God and rats on him for who he hates. Maybe God hates you because you have diarrhea of the mouth. Huh? I have one prayer for the socially challenged Jesus Freaks who have all the incorrect answers. I’m not a Bible thumper but there are those who are and will thump anything. Why? Because they are fucking nuts then they come up with some crap that it was a message. No, it was your own brain fucking with you again. I know God loves all, Jesus loves all. Not so sure about Hitler but he has already had his day in court. There you go crazy lady, why don’t focus on a modern day nazi, ss men instead of lady GAG! You sound like that nutcase from PETA Dan Matthews. He’s always hanging out with blond bimbos with huge tits but you never see him in Wyoming talking to cattle ranchers. This is because he would get his ass kicked over and over. But you guys play it safe. You go where you won;t risk getting hurt then shoot off your mouth with your asinine thoughts AND include Jesus and God in them for stock. I pray to Jesus everyday; “Lord, Jesus (Since he is the son of God why are we so casual and assume it’s ok to call him by his first name. I think it’s really about time we start addressing him Mr. Christ. It just dawned on me, God’s last name must be Christ. I wonder what nationality that is. I’ll find out) So, Lord, Mr Christ, Son of Senior Mr. Christ and Mary, please save me from your followers today. Especially the one who secretly loves Gaga! Ha!

  • I’d just like to say, I am offended.
    Your uneducated assumptions as to the nature of Pagan festivities is insulting.
    Hallowe’en, as it’s modernly known, or Samhain (sah-wen) as it was originally known amongst the ancient Celts (long before the days of Christianity) is the Celtic New Year. As crops are harvested, and we enter the bleak winter season, the new yearly cycle begins. It was believed that on that day, demons were most able to enter our world, and so people would dress as such demons in the hope of fooling them and thereby avoiding being attacked by them.
    Please, if you’re going to post anything like this in future, do try not to be so offensive. Your comment that Hallowe’en is an “excuse for cross-dressing and sexual promiscuity” is ignorant and insulting. Any excess sexuality you may have observed around the time is as a result of the modern industrialised hype surrounded the event, and bares no true reflection of the original meaning nor the pagan faith as a whole.

  • It makes me really sad that these so called Christians are HATING. Whatever happened to “love your neighbor as you love me”? And because I’m skinny and I tried but I cannot gain any muscle at all, I’m destroying the beauty of masculinity? So I’m destroying men because I can’t be a muscled jock or model? I like Lady Gaga no because she makes me wanna drug myself or because she will turn me into a woman (which I don’t and she is most certainly not!), but because she gave me a voice. A voice I never had. She told me it’s okay for me to be skinny and to love and that it’s okay that I don’t look like the build up guys in clothing stores posters. I’m not saying she’s God. I’m not saying she’s a prophet. I’m saying don’t hate her just because she taught me and, other people around the world, that it’s okay to love myself as I am.
