Carrie Prejean: I Passed God's Test!
Carrie Prejean has played the God card.
The Miss USA contestant - who has been all over the news for telling judge Perez Hilton that she believes marriage ought to be reserved for a man and woman - sat down with Fox News this week and actually said the ordeal is simply a test from God.
Right. She's a regular Jonah.
Here are a few excerpts from the fair and balanced interview:
On how she's feeling: Happy. This happened for a reason. By having to answer that question in front of a national audience, God was testing my character and faith. I'm glad I stayed true to myself.
On the question about gay marriage: I knew he was controversial, and so was the question. Out of all the topics I studied up on, I dreaded that one, I prayed I would not be asked about gay marriage. If I had any other question, I know I would have won.
On her response: I have no regrets about answering honestly. [Perez Hilton] asked me for my opinion and I gave it to him. I have nothing against gay people, and I didn't mean to offend anyone in my answer.
On her post-pageant activity: I ate my first hamburger in a long time!
So, to recap: Carrie Prejean took part in a beauty pageant, in order to be asked a question about gay marriage, to which she responded by denying homosexuals basic human rights, which simply proved her faith to God, but doesn't mean she has anything against gay people. And her reward, after starving herself for months, was a hamburger.
Everyone got it?

I just wanted to quickly comment on her saying "If I had any other question, I know I would have won". Miss Kristin Dalton (who won) had placed first in both swimwear and evening gown. Carrie was third in swim and second in gown. She was the frontrunner going into the question. Dalton would have had to bombed the question and Prejean would have had to give a fantastic answer for Carrie to all of a sudden win. Her question was “Do you believe taxpayers’ money should be used to bail out struggling U.S. companies? Why or why not?” “That’s a tough one, No, I don’t think that U.S. taxpayers’ money should be used to bail out companies. Taxpayers’ money should go towards bettering our education and our school systems and welfare and the healthcare system. That’s what our taxpayers’ money should go to—absolutely.” The audience responded with a standing ovation. It was a clear, concise answer. Prejean responded by saying, that she thought it was great that you can choose

I appears that the "rights" of glbt, et al, will be here long after I am deceased. What I strive for is a faith based discussion
and not polemics. We never get there. Those who fail, in the Christian community, to bring out the problems with Holy Scripture, Christian Tradion, and Contemporary Reasoning, in support of same-sex marriage and allowing non-celibates to be ordained and serve in non-glbt faith communities, do us a great disservice to those of us who are opposed but listening. Merely
arguing that "practice procedes legislation" is not going to be
successful. I predict parallel congregations, one glbt and another "straight".

By the way ... so no one gets the wrong idea, Cappinstud is my nickname from my horse rafing ahdicapping friends. To the matter, I'm totally fed up with living in a country where an opinion is no longer okay. I grew up with the understanding that opinions were sacrosant. Every one has one, and they are entitled to it, and an opinion is not wrong. Suppostions can be wrong, facts can be wrong, conclusions can be questioned, but everyone is entitled to theirt opinion. Tha includes perex hilton, and it includes Miss CA. This was not a political venue it was a beauty pageant. LastI knew, Miss CA would not be making law, so she is entitled to her opinion. Shame on everyone who wants to turn this into a referendum. No one in a democracy should be penalized for having an opinion. First Amendment entitles us all to this right. I may disagree, but I will not stand in anyone's way from exressing their disbeliefs. For ms. Hilton to say that she is ignorant, is to fundamentally attach his opinion t

Go Carrie!!! I'm proud of you for not giving into the status quo. Stand for what you believe. Why are so many people bashing her for what she believes in? What, she has no right to believe that way because it goes against other people’s beliefs. Marriage should stay between a man and women. Why is so important for homosexual community to have the “union of marriage”, when there is already “DOMESTIC PARNTERSHIP” in place that gives them all the same rights as married couples. In fact, domestic parntership gives them more rights in California than a heterosexual couple has that’s been together for 10 years and is not married. If “Marriage” is just a word, why is it so important to the homosexual community?

I completely support her comment simply because she answered the question honestly and did not give in to what that judge wanted to hear. He was offended by what she said and had NO hesitation about offending those who might disagree with him. Where is his tolerance?
Carrie Prejean is the kind of woman that I would proud to see my son with...Thank you for the opportunity to supppoet her.

Ms California,
The title miss usa is not a worthy title for you. The spiral decline of morals in the usa (homosexuality= moral decline)...
Your Daddy is promoting you to the title of Miss UNIVERSE!!!
Integrity is a Character without comprimise! Go Girl

Carrie. It is people like you that give a voice to those who truly believe that something is awry about the issue of marriage and homosexuality. Many cannot express themselves gracefully so they just talk by the wayside because they fear being targeted by individuals that are well versed in the art of debate. I can only begin to imagine the weight put upon you by the people who would just assume destroy you. Believe me you have more than an army before you. Even the evolutionists cannot deny that man can only continue as a specie through woman-a truth that cannot be denied. Marriage is the symbol of this truth.

Carrie is tolerant of different views. Perez and the rest of the far left are not tolerant of anyone who doesn't agree with them. This is about trying to destroy marriage. Not about equal rights. Marriage has been this way for 6000 years of recorded history. If people want a union outside of how God designed it, they need a different union. They don't need to change marriage.
