Britney's Meaningless Catholic Scandal

'Meaningless' pretends there is no slap in the face intended to serious Catholics. I think you meant 'gratuitous.'

Ok, I'm from the 80's, and I can relate to Madonna. I can relate to her losing her mom and being "lost". I'm saddended by her losing her catholic roots, BUT..........she made alot of sense of making music about what she felt. I have related to many of her songs about losing her mother, a troubled relationships wit her father. She's also gone on to have a mature reationship with her children because she had them later in life. I CANNOT say the same from Brittany Spears! I HATE that she's even compared to her! First of all, the spoiled brat "B" hasn't had the same upbringing as Madonna...she had children WAY to early and hasn't a CLUE as how to raise them since she's a selfish child herself yet. WHY compare these 2? At least Madonna sang her own songs, didn't have all the hype of a child star and made her mark when she was considered a legal adult. She's a mature women now. Brittany certainly isn't, so stop comparing them. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

Madonna is an intelligent, deliberate, artist in control of what she shows the public, and a very good mother from everything I've read about her life now. So she did some wild things in her life. Most of us did. BS is an out-of-control spoiled talentless child-abusing brat who I agree has no business being in the same article as Ms. Ciccone-Ritchie. These pictures are insulting BECAUSE BS has no connection to the church - those evangelicals think Catholics are the anti-Christ & Catholicism is a cult. My sister-in-law is an evangelical, and I'm a Catholic, so I know what I'm talking about. AT least the priest looks totally uninterested - the pictures are truly an imitative, gratuitous insult, lacking any context whatsoever. And BTW, Paul - it's "an evangelical," not "a evangelical."

I wonder if Ms. Spears will continue to dig deeper until she buries herself, or if she will get some tips and pointers from those who have already traveled down that road and have since classed up their image. If there's anything she needs, it's a little class and some purpose (and not to be the raunchiest girl on the block). It's too bad that someone so beautiful cannot see beyond her own sexuality. Hopefully she will get smart and acquire the desire to be an example for that child of hers, some day. Then again, beauty is temporary, and dumb is forever....

I think both Madonna and Britney Spears are pigs and a disgrace to women.
