1st Timothy 2:9
so you couldn't find any prohibitions against nudity, either?

interesting.

From this comment we get - breast implant scandal - now nude pics scandal.

Again, nobody sees that there's some underhanded manipulation behind this.

SHE WAS FIRST RUNNER UP! Not even a crown winner!
she was asked her opinion, and gave it. unfortunately for her, it wasn't what the PC crowd wanted to hear.

clearly, she must now be destroyed.

Oooh.. she even said.. "I think that I believe that..." - THERE COULD HAVE BEEN SOME APPREHENSION THERE, MAYBE SHE WAS SWAYABLE??

WHICH SOUNDS LIKE IT KINDA LEFT IT OPEN FOR THE GAYS TO BRING HER INTO THE FOLD.

But that is now impossible - because all gays "HEARD WAS" - "I WAS RAISED TO BELIEVE THAT MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN"

I agree. Especially since she's now working for the National Organization for Marriage lecturing Americans on "Family Values".

I hope gay rights supporters point out what a hypocrite she is.

Maybe not everyone. But I definitely think Miss Prejean's for sale.

Her comments brought her into the spotlight. Many in the spotlight get caught up in scandal, it has nothing to do with her winning or not. And there would not have been anything for people to leak if she hadn't done anything wrong/hypocritical in the first place. Of course, you choose to ignore that little tidbit.

What specifically did she do wrong?

She had an opinion that you don't share?

She took some skin pics when she was 17 and starting to model?

She said "I believe marriage is between a man and a woman".

And all of those things are wrong?


Up is not down. Left is not right. Right is not wrong.

When she entered the pageant she had to state that she had never done any type of pornography, did she not? Nude photos constitute as pornography to some, obviously they are to the pageant. She knew that going into it and kept it from them.

The fact that the photos were presumably sold to a porn gossip site eliminates the idea that they were taken by a professional artist, for strictly artistic purposes. Many women object to pornography because it objectifies women and girls, reducing them to a visual aid used for prurient reasons. Men and boys are then susceptible to the belief that females are less than equal, less deserving of humane treatment. Also, although it doesn't appear to offend many men, breast implants send the message to females of all ages that, unless they surgically enhance themselves to reach ever-larger fake breasts, they're not beautiful as they were made.
Such objectification makes it easier to commit violent acts against females,
and violence against women and girls is an epidemic in this country. There is no comparison between such famous nudes as the Venus de Milo and photos of (in this case) a girl who is posing provocatively.
It's no secret that many females pose for such pictures to earn a living as
they struggle to become an actress or pay for an education, but they don't often do so while publicly professing their Christianity. Marilyn Monroe was a naturally exquisite woman, but her nude photographs made it impossible for her to be taken seriously by studio heads as an actress, although today she is seen as a very talented and intelligent woman. And no...the idea that feminists are unattractive is a false one; the vast majority are simply women who worry about the message being sent to their daughters as to the importance of fake breasts as opposed to the importance of character and individuality. It's unfortunate that Ms. Prejean
finds herself in this predicament, but it will simply further her career.
