Pop star Carrie Underwood should take her own advice, which she provided in one of her top hits, and let Jesus Take the Wheel.
In an interview with the London Independent, Underwood, an American Idol winner who professes to be a follower of Jesus, expressed her passionate support for same-sex marriage.
Heres some of what she had to say about that:
I dont know what its like to be told I cant marry somebody I love, and want to marry. I cant imagine how that must feel. I definitely think we should all have the right to love, and love publicly, the people that we want to love.
She said she attends a gay friendly church and doesnt believe she has the right to judge anyone. Above all, God wanted us to love others. Its not about setting rules, or [saying] everyone has to be like me. No. Were all different. Thats what makes us special. We have to love each other and get on with each other. Its not up to me to judge anybody.
Now, I dont mean to pick on a young celebrity who has obviously devoted most of her life to music and may have missed out on some key Bible studies.
In fact, what Underwood has to say here is actually indicative of a growing biblical illiteracy within what passes for the Body of Christ in America today even among the clergy.
Heres the bottom line: You cant be a follower of Jesus and condone what He Himself describes as sin.
Neither can you truly love others by purposely not confronting their sin and allowing them to be comfortable with their sin.
Thats not love.

bingo, we have the winner. She in the entertainment industry, specifically pop music. Unless she eats sh#t she's not going to be "successful".
That's what I tell my kids about jobs and careers. Being free allows you the freedom to know where to draw the line and how much sh#t ya gotta eat in order to work or live.
Simple decision. She wants to be in the music industry, she puts up with the freak-fest that is the entertainment industry. We all have lines that we won't cross. Goes for the enterainment and ALL jobs. Look at what flag officers in the military are doing everyday in order for them to put their 20 in and get their retirement. Gay pride month in the Pentagon.. yipee. the only thing to know is that the freaks know that in spite of all the cheers and "atta boys/girls" we find homosexuals disgusting pathetic creatures that need psychiatric help with impulse control and gender identification.
