American Idol Adam Lambert "It's a shame"

"It's a shame..." That was Adam Lambert's response to the backlash he has received from the conservative movements and the religious right. In this years' AMA, the same boy who once sang along side Val Kilmer in the Ten Commandments Musical as Joshua, was walking a grown male dancer on his knees like a dog on a leash. He was also clad in black leathers with bondage flair prating about kissing his male keyboard player, fondling a female dancer while mimicking a sexual act, and singing lyrics that can make the aged blush. He thinks it's a shame "because I think there is a double standard going on in the entertainment community right now." So apparently, if the likewise morally challenged Britney Spears and Madonna can do these things, why can't he?

To hear him explain this stuff like he is a victim, or that he is somehow taken back by this response is revealing of the man's nature. "It's a shame..." he said. What is a shame? The fact that people thought his performance was lewd, unacceptable, and contemptible? Let's not forget what the word "shame" means.

Shame - A painful sensation excited by a consciousness of guilt, or of having done something which injures reputation; or by of that which nature nature or modesty prompts us to conceal. Shame is particularly excited by the disclosure of actions which, in the view of men, are mean and degrading. Hence it it is often or always manifested by a downcast look or by blushes, called confusion of face.

Shamefully - With indignity or indecency; in a manner that may cause shame.

Shameless - Destitute of shame; wanting modesty; impudent; brazen-faced; immodest; audacious; insensible to disgrace. (this is more of what I was thinking)

"Female performers have been doing this for years -- pushing the envelope about sexuality -- and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out. We're in 2009; it's time to take risks, be a little more brave, time to open people's eyes, and if it offends them, then maybe I'm not for them."

"It's a shame" because we are blind, and we need to have our eyes opened. Opened to what? "Pushing the envelope about a man's sexuality". I can remember being shocked that Adam Lambert was in the running for America's favorite singer/American Idol several months ago. I was not shocked at him so much...he is a dime a dozen, and just the newest one (Marylin Manson, Howard Stern, Ozzy, Judas Priest, etc). I was more so shocked at how much of a following he had.

After his lewd "performance" at the AMA's, he is catching expected backlash from the "religous right". I didn't watch it of course, and never would waste 3 hours of my time on an awards show that presents these modern day "freedom of expression artists" (see link for explanation) with awards for best song, video, album, etc.

My wife heard about this performance last night showed me the video (she likes helping me find inspiration I guess) to see if I was going to write about this guy. I knew who he was, and was already familar with what he had promised to bring to America. So I cautiously watched the video (thanks to the wonderful world of youtube). I have to say I wasn't as shocked as I thought I would be because I steeled myself. During the rehearsal, he did none of the shocking acts that were actually in the "performance". It was a total premeditated "shock attack". His intention was to shock people, and to be applauded by the likes of all the other deviants such as Perez Hilton.

"And I'm hoping to break down that double standard with this number."

The religious right buys into the "shock factor" and in turn, through their large groups, FOX news and conservative movements, they just gives him more nationalized publicity. It's so easy to fall into this snare. Don't assume Hollywood is ignorant. They get up at arms calling for this action and that action. "Protest his albums, make his pockets hurt, fine him..." Why? You think it will have any bearing on slowing sales in the same nation that has been killing children for years, demeaning God by promoting evolution for decades in our schools, and all of the other unbiblical, immoral, unholy atrocities that are committed daily in America? It's like going after the apple on a apple tree. You have to cut the tree down. Don't waste your time protesting these people. There are more important things in life to devote your time to than Adam Lambert. I submit to you that in this time of recession and financial woes in this nation, his sales will skyrocket regardless of people not having money, nor will the events that occurred at the AMA have any negative bearing on his career as a "glam-god". This is what America wants. They want King Lambert and Queen Lady Gaga.

Who's world do you think this is? It's like when Christians, Protestants, Catholics, and even the Vatican all came together as one and were protesting "Brokeback Mountain" at the theaters worldwide. It didn't even make a dent, but rather far exceeded the producers expectations of their profits. We made them richer by protesting!

Who are you trying to change? The majority of people going to see these movies or these performers are not Bible believers. They are doing what they are supposed to be doing. They are "children of the world". "They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them" - I John 4:5 Those who have Christ, we need to remember that we are pilgrims and strangers. Do you not consider the "kings" we have put into power as a nation? This is Satan's world, and if people in the entertainment industry in Hollywood want to have public orgies on stage on live TV in 2009, it is because our "kings" collectively have agreed to allow them to behave this way in the entertainment and music industry since the 1950's. With the documents of our nation now being twisted to give them ANY "unalienable right" they want, what change can we bring to stop the onslaught of sin and vileness without being regarded as the enemy of their freedoms? It's so backwards! I've said it before, this nonsense was not permitted just 60 years ago in America.

Adam Lambert defensively turns it into a "rights" issue. He wants "equality" at the expense of morality. He's not doing anything wrong, he just wants to fit in like Madonna! Please. The selfishness of Hollywood and her like-minded minions is so detrimental. It's ironic how this young man who once portrayed a biblical character has no concept of "none of us liveth to himself and no man dieth to himself". He has no understanding how that he is "justifying the wicked", and while doing so, he is leading a multitude of twisted fans, young and old, into a new fad of trendy, Manson-esque rock glam with a no-limit, no-borders, and a no-morals reality. Prepare yourselves for a surge of bandwagon glam and goth kids.

P.S. If anyone was speculating over the man's preferred "sexual orientation", (not likely anymore) or possibly who this guy is, the wikipedia (info site) has the attached picture of Adam Lambert, coincidentally, in front of our nation's flag. Interesting how he's portrayed isn't it?

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Prove all things, hold fast that which is right.

LGBT's Love, Honor, Cherish, and Reject

I had stated in a previous post that the opponents of Prop 8 were not going to wait for long this time to appeal. Our judicial system works in such a way that even if the people have spoken, which they decisively have (see image - red is for prop 8, grey is against prop 8), it can be done all over again. The question remained, would they wait until 2012, or begin sooner. That was answered today as the website"Love, Honor, Cherish" stated that they will be moving forward to repeal Prop 8. This site is the go-to website for all LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, Transgendered) supporters. The petition is available for download, and the site also contains several articles and videos promoting and encouraging same sex marriage.

There is actually a section entitled, "Religion",where they spend time discounting and disproving anything God said derogatory or negatively about same sex unions, and even go so far as to say the "the new testament is more affirming of same sex love" by showing passages where the disciple "whom Jesus loved" (John) had his head on the chest of Jesus Christ. These are nothing more than attacks on morality, and Christians to promote and protect their lascivious lifestyles. Following the verses in the gospels that he lists, the writer, David Zelman actually states, "Jesus loves men, and is not afraid to be physical with them".

Prior to such unlearned statements from a unregenerate man trying to explain the doctrines of the bible, he listed many OT references, and merely explained them away due to failed traditions, and out-dated laws of men. He typically and expectedly goes to the story of David and Jonathan and their close friendship, with pro-gay comments, but then list verses about sodomites being removed out of the land by righteous kings with zero comments. Why not comment on some of the greatest men and kings in the Bible, who routinely removed the sodomites out of the land? A homosexual or sodomite attempting to teach the dispensations and doctrines of the bible is like a med student attempting to lecture interns on the intricacies of brain surgery. It's interesting to point out when he gets past the gospels, and into the books such as Romans, Jude, and Revelation, he has no explanation but only list the verses. He says nothing. He then hangs himself by stating:

"The bible is a book to be interpreted and understood in the context of the time it was written."

So he understands the difference between Levitical law, and the gospel of the grace of God right? No, he ignores any New testament condemnation of homosexuality, and further more, has no explanation for the existence of such passages. This is the game. Portray any opponent of gay-marriage as an uneducated, dumb, simpleton Christian stuck in the past. The video on the same page shows a man and woman coming to the justice of the peace to get married. They jokingly portray this couple being slapped with all these OT laws. Some examples aren't even biblically founded, but rather referenced the time when wicked men practiced the act of "Droit de seigneur" or "Jus primae noctis" which means the "lord's right" allowing the ruling lord of an estate or lands to take the virginity of the virgins, or have the right to the first night. Amazingly, they use this to indicate it is from the bible.

"Love honor and Cherish" is nothing more than another LGBT mask to hide the true agenda. It's purpose is to educate by way of deception, and to promote by way of discrediting. Make Christians look like bigoted idiots with out-dated laws and references to morality contained within the pages of the bible while ignoring context. Any verse of scripture that is against homosexuality is to be explained away and tossed.

"Any person of “faith” who uses the text to condemn, persecute, or dehumanize homosexuals and deny them their rights is randomly justifying a pre-existing prejudice."

In their eyes, we are not afforded the right to disagree. if we do, it is immediately tossed up as prejudice. We are de-humanizing them!

Do you realize what he just said? Any verse of scripture from a bible that condemns or, persecutes homosexuals is guilty of being prejudice. Another article has a sermon from a pastor of a Church in Pasadena California that goes so far as to say the sin of sodom was inhospitality. Inhospitality? Really? They don't even have to have their research documented or thoroughly prepared. This is a "pastor"! They know people read and accept instead of reading and searching a matter out. David Zelman actually said that the lesson we get from Sodom is that "men should not have sex with male angels" I'm not making this stuff up. Read it!

Genesis 13:13 But the men of SODOM were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly" Genesis 19:5 "And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? Bring them out, that we may know them" (if there is any doubt what "know them "means look at Gen 4:1 "And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived") Two verses later, Lot pleads with them "I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly" Inhospitality, yeah, I guess I see that in there. Sigh...

I Kings 14:24 And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the inhospitalities of the nations which the Lord cast out before the children of Israel.

He explains away Leviticus because there are other abominations being committed that were listed in Leviticus as well as homosexuality. Ok? Does that change the fact that it's still considered an abomination in the Old and New testaments. Read the article! These people don't even understand their own statements. He explains away Leviticus because of the outdated "abominations" such as using incense improperly or eating pork, but neglects to tell you that many of these laws and commandments found in Leviticus are "ready to vanish away" due to the "new testament"(Hebrews 8: and 9:). Leviticus was written in 1440 BC by OT Jews to OT Jews. Leviticus dealt with the "Levitical Priesthood".

This man continues, and never deals with any verse in the NT. Why is that? Because they can't explain it away by merely referencing old Jewish customs found in Leviticus. They don't even understand simple Sunday School theology, how that we are no longer under the law but under grace. The LGBT has been documented several times in previous posts if you really desire to remove the mask, and see them for what they are. Keep in mind that I can't even post other websites dealing with the LGBT due to content found on such sites. Love, Honor, Cherish? As long as you don't disagree!
