Carrie Prejean's Centerfold Values

I had pretty much decided to say nothing further about Carrie "I'm A Gay Hating Valley Girl" Prejean figuring that her 15 seconds of fame will likely burn out. But then I saw this post by Timothy Kincaid at Box Turtle Bulletin which wonderfully showcases the hypocrisy that has become the hallmark of the professional Christian and "family values" set. Apparently, it's fine to be slutty and sleazy with fake breasts as long as you hate the gays. And people wonder why Christianity is gaining an increasingly bad name among the younger generation? Here are highlights from Timothy's column (the photo he references is posted above):

*

Many in the world of anti-gay conservative Christianity have praised Miss California, Carrie Prejean, as having courage, belief, convictions and Christian values.

*
Maggie Gallagher: Her example resonates, especially to many young Americans, because she chose to stand for truth rather than surrender her core values.

*
Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins: Prejean’s Christian beliefs were no secret to the organization; she quotes a biblical passage in her official bio on the Miss California USA website, citing Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” as a daily source of inspiration.

*
American Family Association’s Tim Wildmon: What I was most impressed with was Miss California’s courage, as she knew her answer could very well cost her the opportunity to fulfill her dream to be Miss USA. But she went ahead and expressed her convictions.

*
Carrie Prejean: We have to be strong and true to our faith and our beliefs.

*

Carrie has become the poster girl for Christianity - or at least the anti-gay variety. And this pictorial from the center fold of B!isss Magazine must be the new look of Conservative Christian values.

*

One can only wonder what convictions Carrie truly possesses other than shameless self-promotion and presenting a fake facade in more ways than one. Oh, and what do Maggie Gallagher, Ton Perkins and Tim Wildmon have to say about Carrie's decision to pose for such a photo? These people are truly disgusting.
