Russian Orthodox believers protest against singer 'Madonna'

[lxnvcts]

It would have been nice if that worthless slut was killed.

stupid not thinking and naive orthodox and catholical church!

[DRDNIBOY]

WHY DONT YOU READ WHAT MADONNA ACTUALY SAID ABOUT THE CROSS.... it is about 3 paragraphs begining with..."I am very grateful"... READ ABOVE FOR YOURSELF> and see that you are condeming a CHRISTIAN ACT!

[DRDNIBOY]

For I was hungry and you gave me food. I was naked and you gave me clothing. I was sick and you took care of me and God replied, "Whatever you did for the least of my brothers... you did it to me."

Please do not pass judgment without seeing my show. END.

My specific intent is to bring attention to the millions of children in Africa who are dying every day, and are living without care, without medicine and without hope. I am asking people to open their hearts and minds to get involved in whatever way they can. The song ends with a quote from the Bible's Book of Matthew:.....

[DRDNIBOY]

Rather, it is my plea to the audience to encourage mankind to help one another and to see the world as a unified whole. I believe in my heart that if Jesus were alive today he would be doing the same thing.

[DRDNIBOY]

There is a segment in my show where three of my dancers 'confess' or share harrowing experiences from their childhood that they ultimately overcame. My 'confession' follows and takes place on a Crucifix that I ultimately come down from. This is not a mocking of the church. It is no different than a person wearing a Cross or 'Taking Up the Cross' as it says in the Bible. My performance is neither anti-Christian, sacrilegious or blasphemous.

[DRDNIBOY]

"I am very grateful that my show was so well received all over the world. But there seems to be many misinterpretations about my appearance on the cross and I wanted to explain it myself once and for all.

[cossack207]

its OK for this over rated singer to bash Christians -- Lets see her mock Islam!!!

[DRDNIBOY]

Did you see the show? I didnt think so. IF ANYONE who was protesting saw the show they would shut up instantly. The fact that she was glorifiing Christianity goes to show you that peoople are reallly stupid. She had scriture up on the screens and it was a glorifiying of Christ and his power. But because it is common for people to hate what they dont know.. you have these so called Russian Orthodox protesting what they havent even seen.

[cossack207]

she loves to mock the church- thats how she has people notice her--if she just sang we would never know of her--cry baby!

[DRDNIBOY]

NOt only was she not mocking the Church she was glorifiing it. I am Greek Orthodox myself and I saw the madonna show. The parts that have scripture on the screans werent shown on tv/ Ofcorse for sensationalism. And none of the protesters saw the show. Go and pay attention to the things of God and let people express themnselves. The only thing you are doing is bringing shame to the chruch with your ingorance. The world sees it and it denys the chruch because of it.

[cossack207]

shame on you!

[CEMABOIKOV]

U must have been watching the wrong show!

[CEMABOIKOV]

AGREEED!
