Church outrage over Madonna gig
bbc. ^ | 26 August 2009

Posted on 08/26/2009 6:31:25 AM PDT by JoeProBono

Madonna fans are being urged to stay away from her forthcoming Sticky and Sweet tour date in Bulgaria by the country's Orthodox Church.

Church of Bulgaria officials have accused the star of showing a "lack of respect" for church rituals.

They expressed their "disapproval and disagreement" with her planned show this Saturday in the Bulgarian capital.

The concert, at Sofia's Vasil Levski Stadium, is expected to be attended by about 50,000 people.

What a one trick pony. But she certainly makes Cher, Paris Hilton, Brittney Spears, and the other pop tarts look classier by comparison.

I’m having deja vu from 1985ish.

We have never been her fans, never bought any of her CDs, never attended her concerts. I think she looks horrible and sounds worse.

I always liked Cher’s music. Not a lot of range but OK music. She is strange, too, though.

Madonna to her agent : “Look, they’re so bored with me out west. I’ve been defacing crucifixes, defiling churches, and pleasuring myself with religious icons for over twenty years. I gotta head out east where they see me as controversial and not some aging broad with a gap in her teeth and arms that look like they should be hanging in a smokehouse.”

A statement from the Church accused Madonna of displaying “a disrespectful and intolerant attitude” to the religious feelings of Christians on her ongoing tour.

^^^
Maybe something was lost in the translation, but I could not find anything in the piece that was descriptive enough of the horrid, satanic acts this skank does to mock the Faith.

Is it just me, or has the woman put on a little weight?

“Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout
is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.”

Funny how true that still is 3,000 years after it was written by Solomon.

On the final episode of the 25th season of Jeopardy last month, the final Jeopardy question was:

In 2009 she was on a world tour at age 69; when “Jeopardy!” premiered in September 1984, she had the USA’s No. 1 hit

A contestant who was probably about 25 years old answered “Madonna”

Madonna ‘Louise Ciccone’ ... was always an overated, lesser talented ‘pole dancer’ who pushed the envelope and marketed herself to ‘stardom’. She like her music being just dreck to the max.

Holding a rock concert in an Orthodox country on the day when the Beheading of the Prophet, Forerunner and Baptist John is commemorated—unlike most saints’ days commemorated with a solmen fast—is enough to earn a condemnation. Why do you think that the Church of Bulgaria or the BBC should have compounded the affront by describing “Madonna’s” antics?

I’m not impressed. If she really wanted to “push the envelope”, she should burn a Koran.

Sticky and Sweet tour?

Bwahhahah! ...In her case it should more aptly be named the "Dusty and Foul" tour. ...The old skank.

...enough to earn a condemnation....

^^
True enough, but what I meant was for them to be specific only in so far as they mention, for example, that she performs a mockery of our Lord's crucifixion.

I guess I am hoping that many of these people who plan to attend just don't realize how satanic this whore is. Naive, on my part, I suppose.
