MTV Jumps on Christian bandwagon...along with NBC, CBS....

I watched two episodes of an MTV program, Room Raiders, over the weekend. The show is based on three guys or girls letting a desired date inspect their rooms. The date is selected based on what's found in the rooms. One girl with humongous breast implants who was arrested on the show the Real World because she became violently drunk was the "inspector". In the room of one boy was a statue of Jesus Christ and a bible. She selected this boy over the other two.

The other episode featured a guy who did the inspecting and who mentioned several times that he was a virgin and a Christian. He also found a bible in one of the rooms of the girls. At the end, he chose the least religious girl for a date.

I'm not anti-religious, and I think it's great that people choose to live by their beliefs. But it seems that everywhere you look we are being bombarded with religious messages and I'm just surprised that MTV has hopped on the "values" bandwagon. Jesus is now "cool."

if it's a movement, then it certainly isn't a mere trend.

I say, go MTV, help make xtianity a trend.

Soon, Jesus will be "so five minutes ago".

Fingers crossed.

of course they could think it's the latest trend. :shrug:

Look at Jessica Simpson, chin uplifted, lips partially open in a perpetual holy head giving pose.

"I was a virgin til married, now look at these tits"!

Can I get an amen?

Jesus is NOT your monkey, to paraphrase Jon Stewart.

Viva La Difference! The trouble comes from rock-hard stupids who can't tell the difference.

The cowboy singer in season 2 of Real World.

The Mormon gal, who's season I can't remember, and the guy she was infatuated with.

They've always included religious folk, gay folk, minority folk, drunk folk, sober folk, HIV folk and any manner of folk in all their shows. Makes for better television, I believe.

mostly white people, there is some diversity here and there.

people--but back to back episodes? It just seemed that they were somehow pushing the issue. Overall, MTV IS one of the most diverse networks around and I like them for that.

Jesus has always been cool it's the fucktards that bastardize his teachings & turn it all into shit that I can't stand.

behold a crucifix!

:evilgrin:

Jesus was way cool.
Everybody liked Jesus.
Everybody wanted to hang out with him.
Anything he wanted to do, he did.
He turned water into wine,
Jesus Was Way Cool

And if he had wanted to,
He could have turned wheat into marijuana,
Sugar into cocaine,
Or vitamin pills into amphetamines.
He walked on the water and swam on the land.
He would tell these stories and people would listen.
He was really cool.
If you were blind, or lame,
You just went up to Jesus
And he would put his hands on you and you would be healed.
That's so cool.
He could have played guitar better than Hendrix.
He could have told the future.
He could have baked the most delicious cake in the world.
He could have scored more goals than Wayne Gretsky.
He could have danced better than Barishnikof.
Jesus could have been funnier than any comedian you can think of.

I taught it was Womb Waiders. Sowwy.
