It’s OK To Worship Barack Obama, Just Not Jesus Christ
This past week, American Idol contestant Elise Testone sang a bit of a duet with Barack Obama as part of her performance of Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together.”
Of course we know that if a Republican President had sang such a thing it would never be allowed on Fox’s floundering pop star TV show.
What is even more appalling is that it appears that there is a contestant who wants to sing about the Lord Jesus Christ and Fox says that they will have none of that. According to the New York Daily News:
“American Idol” producers have apparently warned Colton Dixon if he doesn’t tone down his overtly Christian act, he won’t have a prayer of winning the reality competition.The 20-year-old devout Christian, though, told Today.com that he answers to a higher authority than voting viewers.“When we first started the Twitter and Facebook stuff, they said beware of political and religious tweets,” Dixon told the site. “Just because it can turn off voters or whatever. But, you know, being a Christian is who I am. It is a part of me musically. It is what I want to do after the show — go into Christian music.”
So, the only conclusion we can come to here is that it is ok to idolize Barack Obama as they once did in Nazi Germany for their beloved Furor, but if you want to sing praises to the King of kings and the Lord of lords, then well Fox might just have just have to say “No” to you passing through to the next round. It is a shame when our nation has sunk to the depths we have that we no longer even refer to these people as stars anymore. We call them what we have made them: idols.
