I stand corrected!

I did the Santa Claus Jesus thing this week. I know, I know - HYPOCRITE! But hey, I was desperate and didn't know what else to do or where else to turn. All reason or semblance of sanity seemed to have disappeared, so what was a good soul to do? If you read my earlier post about Santa Claus Jesus, you know how I feel about it. But something had to be done.

Sanjaya. Sanjaya from American Idol had continued to mock my world. Caused serious doubts to arise in my mind about the hearing abilities of millions of Americans. I could not help myself. I went down on my knees and prayed. "Dear Jesus, please let this be the night. Please let Sanjaya get voted off of American Idol".

Now I wasn't completely off my rocker. I didn't bargain with God by offering this or that. Nope, just asked for something. Something simple. And it HAPPENED! Oh My GOD! Its true. Santa Claus Jesus delivered and Sanjaya is now eligible for TV GUIDE Chat.
Santa Claus Jesus. I stand corrected. ;)

Dude. I'm laughing so hard I'm crying. I'm catching up on blogs tonight. I wrote a post, interestingly about prayer, and then read your blog. I read the Santa Jesus story first. I totally agree. I think Christians (even though good intentioned) do more harm than good sometimes. Then I read this one. Oh my. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I've praying the same prayer...or a prayer for Howard Stern to be struck by lightening. However it happened...he's gone. And now I can enjoy AI again.

i'm not exactly sure that santa claus jesus did that for you, as much as for the entire planet. but maybe i'm wrong for that.

i don't watch american idol much but when i do, i keep thinking, is this the best our culture can come up with? and then i flip the channel and there's one of the inane shows with doltish twentysomethings on mtv or there's one of those frightening infomercials manipulating the trusting and naive, and i think, good lord, american idol is a work of absolute genius.

and hey, it gave us the beautiful-voiced kelly clarkson, so it can't be all bad.

time to go watch "the riches" with eddie izzard and minnie driver.
