Is there anything that the religious don't complain about...?

Unfortunately, someone left our radio in the file room tuned into some christian radio station and they were complaining about how young women dress. And I distinctly remember hearing..."And I consider how God would want me to dress (or appear, I can't remember the exact quote. This is also a MAN conducting this broadcast.)..." But, um, would ( Read more... )

That's really remarkable the a Christian group would be talking about how people dress. Islamic Iran is just going through a crackdown on women who are dressing "inappropriately" with some of them being jailed for two months. I think some of the more extreme religious share more in common than they would ever care to admit. Rather disturbing...

first of all, you're fucking awesome. I hate how some religious types concentrate on the retarded little details, like clothes or sexual orientation or some stupid shit like that. Don't you have better things to concentrate on?

People listening to bad radio at work is probably one of the punishments in hell. I remember some woman I worked with a couple years ago listened to the top-20 station, and they had that "oh la la la, don't fuck with me heart" song at least every hour. At least I could hide in my headphones (data entry bitch job FTW)

yeah, who cares about someone's soul when you could care about their clothes...vogue, vogue, vogue.

i maintain that the only radio station that isn't awful in this country is 89.3, the current.

I'm not going to explain because I'm offended (since I'm not), but simply because I think I can offer some sort of Biblical perspective ( ... )

When I say "you," I don't mean stormclouds or anyone in particular. The nebulous you that I tell my students not to use :P
