BTW, when I read "that song would be satanic", I LOLed, literally!
Ha, prolly revealing my premises...but I mean,
it's literally a cliche' joke? (Oh, God,
OhGodOhGodOhGod, just get me out of this...)
So, in a possibly unintended way
(I say possibly because I'm not convinced one can
become famous w/o making a deal w/the devil),
in her skin-tite jeans, she is reinforcing
the Christian stereotype.
No doubt she has hit songs about dying and going to Heaven. Don't let me ruin her for you, because I haven't heard the lyrics,
and I could be totally off base.
I should have known "check book" and "retirement" would be hot buttons for you.
Well, it's weird; 5 years ago they would not really have been;
but really, how does one justify keeping $xxxx in a bank at no interest,
said bank having melted down 3 years ago and owing its existence to
Gov largesse, that prolly would not give them a loan, or if they did,
the terms would be from hell? Good luck with that.

Well, what do ya know! We're on the same side of this issue, kinda. 'Course, I've already noticed this. I, too, don't believe that God will miraculously get you out of situations you have gotten yourself into, by your own foolishness or selfishness or laziness or... well, I don't think God ever gets anyone out of anything, their fault or not. (Hence, the "kinda" above. I suppose you do think He does that, on occasion, if it's not their fault?)

Oh, and it may go without saying (but I'll say it anyway) that I don't endorse the Carrie Underwood School of Defensive Driving.

God? Directly? No, I don't. I believe He has reserved that right,
but just does not operate that way. I believe that someone
with even a mustard-seed faith is hedged with a certain
protection, "angels" works for me; but I'm pretty sure one can
chase them off in ignorance of the def of "manifest."
The music industry is in the domain of satan,
and I am sceptical of anyone allowed to
rise to the top, at least in that system.
However, there is music in that genre that
I do find edifying, don't get me wrong-
-First Baptist Church of Vallejo, CA
(I think it's 1st Bap--in the old movie theater downtown)
fugeddaboudit! You can like see the angels.
However, i don't expect a hit album
from them anytime soon.
People so ignorant when it comes to Islam. Terrorists are using the words of the Qur'an to control people by taking the words of the Qu'ran out of context. People do that all the time with the bible. Do those idiots at the Westboro Baptist church represent all Christians?

I should prolly warn you that agreeing with me on this forum (or for that matter, any other forum ) is not healthy...there are several ordained ministers here convinced that Allah is the antichrist, and I suggest you get lined up and start cursing Muslims if you want to be popular.
