Is Anyone Other Than Catholics Outraged By The Nude Virgin Mary Playboy Cover?

There is an outrage over a cover of Playboy that features a model dressed in a white head wrap only. It is said to be meant to evoke the image of the Virgin Mary in the nude.Many Mexican Catholics are upset over what they consider to be a blasphemous photo. I don't get upset over an image that probably isn't accurate anyway. How do we know what Jesus or the Virgin Mary looked like? We don't! There were a whole lot of women dressed like the Virgin Mary because that was the style of dress during biblical times. The stained glass window in the background is the only thing that gives it away.Does anyone,other than Catholics, find this cover to be blasphemous? I don't know, but Playboy apologized for what many found to be a distasteful cover. Here's more from The S.F. Examiner:

"Playboy magazine apologized for a controversial cover featuring a scantily-clad woman resembling the Virgin Mary, Reuters reported.The December edition was published Thursday, just before the Mexican festival honoring Mary known as the Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe.Playboy Enterprises Inc., based in Chicago, released a statement Friday explaining that the company did not approve the cover because the Mexican version of the magazine is published by a licensee, according to Reuters."(END OF EXCERPT) Read the whole article here:http://www.examiner.com/r-4474814~Playboy_Virgin_Mary_Cover_Sparks_Outrage_In_Mexico.html

I Thought Bobby & Whitney Already Told-All On Their Crazy Ass Reality Show!!

Why the hell is Bobby Cracked-Out Brown writing a tell-all book??!! I think that their reality show was more telling than most people expected. It was an atrocity that Whitney Houston would never had permitted had she been in her right mind. Bobby Brown probably pursued the idea to no end until she finally relented. He is a man of ill repute that has forever scandalized Whitney Houston & her career. But, Bobby Brown claims that Whitney turned him out. He seems like the ultimate bullshitter & sweet talker. Bobby Brown reminds me of one of those washed-up pimps that was in "American Pimp". The way he helped her run through all of that money she earned, I think he fits that title better than most of the pimps out there today! Here's an excerpt from The Insider:
"After his 1992 marriage, the former Being Bobby Brown star says his dependence on narcotics spiraled out of control. “At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine,” he writes.

Brown also describes his 14-year marriage as “doomed from the very beginning.” “I think we got married for all the wrong reasons,” he says in the book. “Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married … I believe her agenda was to clean up her image.”

The couple, who have a 15-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina, split in September 2006.

One potential stress on their union? Brown’s now-admitted infidelity.

“Women are always throwing themselves at you,” he writes. “I’m only human, so I would make the mistake and bite the hook sometimes. I let the testosterone take over.”(END OF EXCERPT) Read the rest here:http://www.theinsider.com/news/780509_Whitney_Responds_to_Bobby_Brown_s_Tell_All_Book

Are we really supposed to believe that Bobby Brown could help clean up anyone's image? Not unless he's talking about those pesky gay rumors about Whitney that abounded before their nuptials.

Bush Dodges A Shoe Thrown At Him By Iraqi Journalist!

In Arab culture,throwing a shoe at someone is considered to be a serious insult! George Bush just missed getting hit in the face by a shoe that a journalist hurled at him. He joked that the shoe was a size 10. But, I hope he will finally get just how angry he has made most of the free-thinking world. He has been reminiscing in interviews about his time in office & it sounds like he has some fond memories that he will take with him. Whatever the future holds, I doubt that anyone will miss the Bush years.
