Vomit, Rinse, Repeat.... "I sing, dance and act for Jesus!"

'Hannah Montana' Star Says Faith Keeps Her Grounded
In the video, Jiroux, 20, who performs as a back-up dancer for the popular teen star, reads a question from a fan who asked if the girls were Christian.

The squeaky-clean duo emphatically respond, "Yes!"

"Yes! We love Jesus!" says Cyrus, 15, as she nods her head in agreement. "Happy Easter, by the way. He died for our sins. That's how awesome he is.

"Jesus rocks! That's why we do what we do," the Hannah Montana star adds. "She (Mandy) dances for Jesus. I sing, dance and act for Jesus! ... Now that I think about it, I do everything for Jesus. We make the YouTube videos for Jesus. We’re all about it."

I couldn't find a picture of Miley Cyrus with Jesus but she had this pic taken with Buddha

1. You know, a lot of people die for our sins.

Are they deities, too?

[ProdigalJunkMail]

3. wow...talk about not getting it...

even if you don't believe...at least understand what you don't believe...

sP

[Iris]

4. oh, brother. This little bitch is going around making money mouthing of this crap

yet, she probably is clueless to the suffering of people around the world and I don't get it?

[QueenOfCalifornia]

7. I think

you get it...

(I understood the veiled message)
:hi:

[ProdigalJunkMail]

11. perhaps I am just extra dense today...

veiled message or standard hostility toward anything even mentioning christianity?

sP

[Iris]

13. or your reaction to anything slightly critical of Christinanity?

which came first? the chicken or the egg?

[ProdigalJunkMail]

18. you fired the first shot, Iris

and all i am doing is pointing out that you got it wrong...

sP

[Iris]

21. I didn't fire a shot at Christianity.

You took it that way. I fired a shot at a celebrity using Christianity to please her fan base, which I find to be disgusting and disingenuous.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

26. you don't know that at all...

she may be honest in her perception of herself. my young daughter might certainly feel the same way that this celebrity has announced that she feels...and she doesn't have an entourage...

sP

[QueenOfCalifornia]

27. You are correct

I fired a shot at Christianity and it was a direct hit.

It was Meeeeeee!

WTF?????

The whole "I do everything for Jesus" thing makes me want to smash my head into the wall.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

29. then you must sincerely misunderstand those that do... n/t

[DCKit]

66. But you know, as a devout Christian, she gives most of her money to charity.

And her benefit concerts are legendary, not to mention the three days she spends each week visiting the poor and afflicted.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

30. I am hostile

I admit it. I am so fucking sick of the over religiosity of this country I could puke.

I am disgusted by what religion is doing to this country.

One of my favorite quotes:
Theology is never any help; it is searching in a dark cellar at midnight for a black cat that isn't there. Theologians can persuade themselves of anything.
Robert A. Heinlein

If religion, in this case Christianity, was kept out of government - we would not have a dumb-assed monkey who claims to speak directly to God as the POTUS.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

31. I suppose I can understand the hostility

God knows many MANY christians have earned for their little club. But the thing is, there are soooo many christians out there that are decent people...many of them on this very board...who count their faith as a critical component of their lives. The outward hostility toward christianity (nay, religion in general) that comes out of this board is detrimental to ongoing relations with those who would normally contribute greatly to the liberal cause (of which some would argue Jesus was the champion!).

I am sorry I get up in arms when I see this sort of outright anger expressed on this board, though I should expect it given the history and especially the recent history of some very vocal people who call themselves christian...I just see the damage that it does...

sP

[ProdigalJunkMail]

10. she doesn't sing about jesus does she?

i mean, she's not one of the pop-christian-music people...i don't think. And your statement had nothing to do with what she said...so why get all pissy? You think that lots of people died for our sins? I don't think so...

sP

[Iris]

12. People are dying every day for/because of us.

You don't get it. I am sick and damed tired of people using Jesus as an excuse to ignore what's going on the world.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

17. and where'd she do that?

I know now exactly what you were trying to say (thanks for clearing that up...wasn't sure if you were going for the double meaning or not). All she said was that she does everything for Jesus...and while I am a little doubtful of that statement (VERY few people do everything for Jesus) who are you to judge her?

sP

[Iris]

20. I have a right to my own opinions. If someone is in the public eye, I'll have an opninion about her

or him. I damn sure can't avoid seeing and hearing their stupid shit unless I live in a cave, so I'll continue to have opinions about them. You're free to disagree with them.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

23. ok, that's fair

i will continue to disagree with your judgment of other without full knowledge of their intent...

sP

[EOTE]

37. I can think of at least a million of so who have.

For our sins, because of our sins. Seems the same to me.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

39. well , grammatically it may be the same...

so I guess the play on words is cute enough...

sP

[EOTE]

42. I promise you I wasn't trying to be cute. Thanks for the pick me up though. NT

[DadOf2LittleAngels]

53. Naa grammatically is off

For: implies purpose (I went to the store for some eggs)
Because: implies consequence (Because I was at the store I got some eggs)

One states My intention, the other just means this is why..

To put the two thoughts together:

Because we are all sinners who have fallen short Jesus died for our sins..

[lukasahero]

24. "This little bitch"?

Why is she a bitch? Or is that just what we call women/girls we don't like nowadays? (Maybe "fucking whore" would be even better, no?)

Why do you assume she's clueless to the suffering in the world - because she hasn't personally fixed it all yet? How do you know she's not doing something about it?

She's making money performing - just like a lot of other entertainers. She's not a preacher - she's not making money for saying this - it's an interview - she's, what, 15? Get off your high horse.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

5. Hmmm....

*checking my godometer which looks a lot like a Magic 8-Ball*

[SammyWinstonJack]

9. Huh?

:wtf:

[Iris]

15. sins like greed, gluttony, etc.

[DadOf2LittleAngels]

51. You dont want to believe Christian Doctrine

Fine, but please for all involved don't trivialize it.

You, for example, *cant* die for my sins no matter how much you wish because you have your own sin for which you need to answer..

[newmajority]

2. Did her dad sing "Achy Breaky Heart" for Jesus?

And if so, why did Jesus put up with that shit? :scared:

[EOTE]

19. Jesus is way into tolerance.

If he tolerated the Macarena, it doesn't surprise me one bit that he tolerated ol' hillBilly Ray. I read in an interview that he grew his mullet for Jesus.



Jesus: Jesus Christ! Will you people please stop doing things in my name? For Christ's sake, can't a guy enjoy retirement in peace?

[sakabatou]

6. .

[EOTE]

8. I've never heard Jesus referred to as 'it' before.

The zeal I hear these fundies talking about Jesus really scares me. How does dancing or singing have anything to do with him? Perhaps if she were saying "I donate to charity for Jesus" or "I work with the homeless for Jesus", I could understand it, but why does she even bother mentioning what she 'does' for Jesus if it has nothing to do with his works or message? To me it makes just about as much sense as saying that I furiously masturbate to internet porn for Jesus. Frankly, even if I thought he could, he just wouldn't give a damn.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

16. That's Teen Lingo

I think you are all about "it" too.... (from the post!) :rofl:

You almost made me blow my diet peach Snapple iced tea out of my nose...

TGIF!

[EOTE]

45. Jesus is hip now?!? OMG ROFLMAO

I mean, the guy's a hell of a bowler, but he always seemed a bit creepy to me. I sure as hell wouldn't allow him near my kid.

[kenny blankenship]

14. I sing, dance and act for Jesus! --a triple threat, you say. But actually

Jesus is her Mexican boyfriend. She also barks like a dog for Jesus.

[Tyler Durden]

28. Oh god that's funny!

[kenny blankenship]

32. I thought it was in rather poor taste and fairly offensive

but I decided to post it anyway until I could think of something stronger.

(Just to be clear, by "it" I mean post #14. Also I would like to strike "barks like a dog for Jesus" and emend that to "makes animal noises for Jesus". Kthanxbai.)

[QueenOfCalifornia]

33. I liked it

but I have been told I am offensive by people in the DU way more than once...

[EOTE]

41. Unfortunately being liberal doesn't always equate to having the best sense of humor...

I guess some issues are considered taboo by people across the political spectrum. I refuse to believe that any cow is so sacred it can't be made fun of.

[Tyler Durden]

38. So?

So is most television!

[tanyev]

22. Shopping for Jesus!

I had the, uh, pleasure of observing a bit of the Hannah Montana game that my niece got for Christmas and it seemed that shopping was an integral part of moving the game forward.

[mitchum]

25. Hasn't the man suffered enough?

[proud2BlibKansan]

34. ...

[QueenOfCalifornia]

35. wow...

a picture IS worth a thousand words. :rofl:

:hi:

[ProdigalJunkMail]

40. see... there is a 'christian' cartoon i can relate to

well done...

sP

[baldguy]

36. You'd think Jesus would have been a little more generous.

[KG]

43. 'I'm an annoying, ignorant little git for Jesus!'

i'm sure He's well pleased... :eyes:

[Metta]

44. Bong hits for Jesus.

I'm just saying ....

[NoGOPZone]

46. I see she likes touching Sumo wrestlers.

All for Jesus, of course.

[Beausoleil]

47. What does Jesus need with your singing and dancing and acting

for millions of dollars?

Just askin'.

[brentspeak]

48. Nice Christian-bashing flamebait thread

You have anything set up for an encore?

[QueenOfCalifornia]

64. If I had a single cent for every time

a Christian bugged the crap out of me, I would have a million pennies....

So this is just my way of giving back about $5 ----

[riderinthestorm]

49. Just like Britney saying "I'm a virgin!"

while she was busily screwing Justin Timberlake, so too do I predict that Miley Cyrus will eat these words.

[EOTE]

50. If I find out she's been doing it for Vishnu instead...

I'm going to be really pissed.

[riderinthestorm]

54. Totally OT but frankly, why not?

In fact, WHEN Miley Cyrus begins her saga of partying out and the christian crusaders begin their merciless pounding on her immoral ass, I propose she just change deities!

Iirc, aren't there more Hindus on the face of the planet anyway? Think of the potential audience she could reach!!111!! Series!!11!!! I mean, if one is going to be a fucking hypocrite, I say go all. the. way.

[EOTE]

60. It takes a lot of balls to put all your faith in a deity with just 2 arms.

Can you imagine Jesus and Vishnu in a cage match? I mean, there's only so much turning the other cheek that a man can do.

[kenny blankenship]

65. You're forgetting the Triple Threat

Father, Son, AND Holy Spirit. Three into One. One into Three. Consubstantial-ly
They come at you out of nowhere.
So fast.

[Contrary1]

52. "Vomit, Rinse, Repeat..."

and yet you are trolling Christian websites for material. Perhaps you wouldn't be puking so much if you steered clear of them.

[proud2BlibKansan]

61. And you know this how??

I guess it never occurred to you that maybe someone sent this out in an email? I received it myself this morning in an email. I don't troll Christian websites.

[DadOf2LittleAngels]

55. No offense Hanna

David sang for God; when any of your music is substantially elevating to God you can make that claim..

[Warren DeMontague]

56. So I take it she's giving away all her money to poor people, right?

Oh, sorry, wrong Jesus.

[Windex]

57. It's a "relationship"

When your core being is defined as being a Christian, then everything you do or say or think involves that relationship. This is why Christians revolt against evoution..it offends the very core of who they are.

[Warren DeMontague]

58. Actually, there are plenty of Christians who are able to reconcile themselves with Scientific truth.

It is only a small minority who find the facts about life on planet Earth so deeply threatening to their faith that they have to surround themselves with a little world of denial and delusion.

[Initech]

59. This is why I dont listen to corporate-sponsored music.

:puke:

[FredMertz]

62. In the immortal words of Bad Bob (right before saying Grace)....

"Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! If I hear 'Jesus'one more time I'm gonna puke." Of course Bad Bob was only 3 years old at the time and had to spend the rest of the afternoon in the corner. (Bridgie was a stern Irish Catholic baby-sitter).

[Snarkturian Clone]

63. Better Jesus than coke...

but give her a few years for that one.
