The Tragic Tale that is Gripping America!

Is It the end of the world as we know it?

"what is truth?" ----Pilate


Post election news....This just in! In what should be a Jerry Springeresque trailer park slug-fest for the ages, it has been recently reported that media created multi-millionaire teeny bop icon and diva Britney Spears has filed for divorce from her slacker back up dancer and wannabe rappa/gangsta husband Kevin Federline ("K-Fed" to his legion of fans).

Upon hearing of his estranged wife's decision to sue for divorce, K-Fed filed for spousal support. (How can he ever survive!)

The question now must be asked why the news media has spent so much, much time in recent days covering the election results, when an infinitely more pressing issue, like Britney and K-Fed's tragic break up became public knowledge. What a grave injustice!


Editorial:


Before many of you think I have lost my mind, I am using sarcasm to make the over the top point that are media and popular culture worship celebrities and that all the time and monetary resources America society spends on such banal and meaningless dribble could be spent on real issues like ending abortion and stopping the injustice and murder of Christians in Darfur Sudan.

In our superficial and celebrity obsessed American culture, it is not the real issues and meaningful people that matter to most, but it is pointless trash like the K-Fed breakup and talentless media created stars like Britney Spears and Ashlee Simpson that make headlines...

Substantial and cognitive discourse over the real issues that face America is what is needed most, not gossip and innuendo that Americans crave like junkies seeking a quick fix...

Media can be a drug if you let it overwhelm you...

Or will you allow yourself to be overwhelmed by God and His Word?

In a sense, many American's are virtual junkies themselves, seeking to fulfill their emptiness on the pointless dribble witnessed on Ophra, Entertainment Tonight or Dr. Phil.

Our culture needs a spiritual and intellectual revival or we are doomed to drown ourselves to death on substance free T.V.

We all need to turn from the banality of superfical American Culture and back to Jesus Christ and the teachings of Holy Scripture...

"But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name."

John 20:31
