American Idol Erases Jesus
What happens when Christianity gets a catchy tune? One that has a lot of appeal? Why, if the world wants to use it, it has to cheapen it.
That’s what happened on one of the recent episodes of American Idol. Truth be told, I don’t watch the show. Sure, I’ve caught some of the early auditions, but I don’t believe that I can get behind the concept.
It’s not just that the entire thing is mostly rigged, that true talent gets overlooked in preference for the weird singers to get eyeballs, or even that I find the music to be contrary to Scripture. I just don’t have the time in my life to dedicate to a reality show made up of people trying to be the greatest, when I’m called to be a servant. Christ said that the greatest among us were to be those that served, and here we have a bunch of fame hungry men and women all pinning their hopes and dreams on something that will not last… but I digress.
