"A serious philosophy that was meant to filter out liberals has been taken over by arrogant ministers, making their own new rules and bastardizing time-old traditions What does this sound like?"

Self hatred?

Madonna (and probably a whole lot of other people as well) probably think that awful movie "Kingdom of Heaven" is accurate in its portrayal of "history", and therefore feeds this anti-Christian (golly, I'm actually starting to get USED to hearing the kind of crap like Madonna is repeating) nonsense, based essentially on non-historically accurate "facts". Doesn't everyone know that if it weren't for those nasty Christians, the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD would be living together in peace and tranquility? AND - If the United States only sent lots & lots of money to whatever nation said they wanted it and not do anything else (like freeing nations under dictatorships), we'd be so POPULAR with everyone, including the French! They would finally LOVE US! Oh, it would be "HEAVEN"! It would be SO EASY if we just could get it. (Not)

Your both right.

It also sounds like the Judicial Branch these days.

I'm to the point where I'm ready to beg Jim to institute a new rule: If you can't link to the story and read it, it shouldn't be posted.

Though probably a good point, your point isn't relevent here. Everything I want to discuss is in the excerpt.

People have been reacting mostly to Madonna's ravings and not the point that I think is more important.

How about a rule that requires people to read posts? :)

Let's talk about the Crusades, when they annihilated anyone who wouldn't convert to Christianity.

Gee, all this time I thought it was the Muslims who killed anyone who wouldn't convert to Islam. Silly me. Madonna is the smartest woman in the world, next to Hillary.

You can also talk about yesterday when many Muslims killed anyone who was not a Christian.

Actually, there are Christian and Hermetic traditions that adapt Kabbalistic traditions and reinterpret them in the light of Trinitarian or metaphysical doctrines. But they're small, low-key, academically-rigorous groups that would never cater to shallow celeb-types...

Funny how if someone gets famous we all get to hear their opinions on life, the universe, and everything.

What the correlation between having a worthwhile opinion on politics or religion and singing?

You might has well read an interview with Bill the plumber.

I was stuck in a lunchroom today with only one section of yesterday'sThe Boston Globe to read.

More like what you'd find in a restroom, especially with the slut's interview in it.

well, it was either that, or a rather lame Three Dog Night song parody. :)
