That wasn’t even close to a rant. I was merely speaking of my experience with her and it wasn’t good at all.
I find it amusing how so many non-Christians are chastising me for a word they most likely use as well.
I have met many celebrities over the years and I can safely say Marie Osmond is one of the the worst by FAR.
I am a Christian based upon my faith in Christ. If I speak in the flesh then God will convict me of it or a believer will admonish me.
I also find it amusing how no one said anything about the words people (including Christians) were using on the Fluke threads, but think that I am out of line because it is Marie Osmond.
I’d like to know how many Christians on FR take every available pot shot at Obama even though Paul tells us that to do so is a big no no in Romans 13?
She was really that bad? Wow.
Well said.
Sometimes, us Christians can be the biggest judge of all, when in fact, it is not up to us to Judge.
I consider myself a strong Christian and yes, I have called people the B word and sometimes worse. We are saved by Grace. We all fall short.
One of my most common sins is one that, until I converted to Catholicism, I would never have called a sin. It is the very real sin of detraction. I often fall into it, and rarely even realize it. What makes it hard to recognize is that it is a sin that tells the truth. Rash judgment is another fault of mine. Pray for me please.

2477 Respect for the reputation of persons forbids every attitude and word likely to cause them unjust injury.278 He becomes guilty:
- of rash judgment who, even tacitly, assumes as true, without sufficient foundation, the moral fault of a neighbor;
- of detraction who, without objectively valid reason, discloses another’s faults and failings to persons who did not know them;
- of calumny who, by remarks contrary to the truth, harms the reputation of others and gives occasion for false judgments concerning them.
