As to if I watched it.. no.. I didn't watch it. I was referring to the pathetically stupid answer Miss Teen South Carolina gave about a year ago and her "maps will save the world" answer that is all over the internets.

I for some dumb reason watched that part of the pageant. She fumbled with that whole answer. Did you see Perez Hiltons facial expressions after she said it? The sad part is...im not sure believed what she was saying. And if she did she didnt come across as so.

Whatever names you call us, yes we prefer and fight for tolerance. That's why intolerance like anti-gay marches and gay discrimination make us speak up.

Now as far as Miss California goes, it may be her opinion but why do you want her to be allowed to speak her opinion, and then complain when Hilton speaks his opinion, hmm? You may not like him, but that doesn't mean his opinion is any less valid than someone competing in a "beauty pageant".

And the comment about "Babylon" coming and the end of the world or whatever it is -- you'd think you people would be happy and welcome it. After all, if you are right it just means you're closer to leaving the world and going to live with your gods.

Your kidding right? sorry but that is twisted logic.

lol...you're making me laugh. I am not upset and your attempt to prove otherwise fails miserably.

Anyway, I missed last year's blooper too, so still don't know what you're talking about.

I do find it absolutely laugh out loud hilarious that you are complaining about a pageant.. that espouses pride and vanity to its core...

but hey.. thats just me.

I agree about the pageant....as a woman I have always found them to be very offensive.

I thought that most Christians would understand that this is not about the pageant. The point is she plainly stated she is a Christian and that this is about the big picture of what is taking place as far as the belief in God and the Bible no longer being what this country is about.

In a relatively short amount of time this country has become everything that God plainly states in His Word as something that will bring destruction. We know this from the example of Sodom and Gomorrah, but this has no bearing because no one believes the Bible anymore!!! This pageant thing is just a very visible example of the Godlessness that will bring America to it's knees...or I should say God will bring it to it's knees.

It's twisted that you think it's okay for her to say what she wants, but you don't want to let the guy with an opposing opinion say what he wants. If it's okay for her to speak up, it's okay for him to speak up.

That is still twisted. She was asked a question, he wasn't. She answered it honestly, boldly, clear and concise. Now unless I have been wrong all these years I didn't know one was judged based on their opinion.

You are trying to change the rules in the middle of the game which is hypocrisy. At least admit it, you got busted and now you are trying to twist reality. It's ok because you believe you are right and you will do whatever it takes for that to be, that I could repect instead of playing kindergarden tricks of double talk. I am an adult I know -- you know what when I hear it.

Well I didn't try to prove otherwise. In fact my last post said "my bad".

The difference is she was asked HER opinion on the subject and he wasn't..So now he's having a hissy fit and drawing the liberal media into the mix...
Are your views more important than ours? It doesn't appear it's about TOLERANCE; it's about you and your liberal views having your way in our society...Tolerance would allow her/us to speak our minds without being attacked!
