I weep for Miley

[Sevenseas]

 

 

I have not mentioned what I have seen to anyone...and I don't want to.  

 

(snip)

 

it seems each family is so busy with their own little world, that

the bigger picture, the shocking bigger picture, does not get the attention it should get.

 

 

If you do not mention what you saw about that old friends kids facebook pages, then arent you being "so busy in your own little world" instead of helping? 

 

As for miley, the hardest part of what happened on that awards show is that her mother was proud of her. How could miley know better when her own mother supports that kind of behavior?

 

 

 

For anyone reading, I pm'ed Jade to expalin why I said nothing.  It is  a private matter.  Thanks for understanding

hey, you have to remember that it was her mother and father who consented for her to do a nude photo shoot when she was 15 years old. (so what if she covered intimate parts of her body with a sheet? the photographer saw all... her parents were pimping her out for money and fame.) i have no use for miley. i have less use for her parents. i am ashamed to say that i sit high and lofty in my judgment of them, and i pray that God will not only forgive me for that, but that He will help me learn to be less judgmental and more prayerful of others deviances.

 

 

 

Yes... I remember.  And in the case I wrote of, it is the mother who has allowed things and basically lit into the father if he tried to do anything...now, it's all too late unless God intervenes

 

They've had some massive fights in that family that got physical between the parents and I saw some of the damage the wife did to the husband.  The husband has not touched his wife

but he has destroyed property in his anger

 

These are Christian folks ...

Yeah, I know a lot of Christians with anger problems, and I know a lot of Christians with marital problems.

christians need to be more careful about walking the walk. there will be a lot of folks trying to get into heaven who say 'but lord!!!!" and He's going to say "get away from me, i never knew you." i don't know if the family is truly christian or not. it's not my place to judge. but for many years, they haven't born any fruit. i haven't seen or heard any of the stuff about the family fights and the abuse from the wife, but frankly, i have never seen anything upstanding in billy ray's character either. if he's a victim of domestic violence, he needs to get help. if they still have minor children at home that are affected by the abuse, he needs to get help for them. but i can't swallow the whole idea that he's an innocent victim of circumstance that has no responsibility in the exploitation of his daughter when she was younger.

LadyC...do you mean Miley's family is supposed to be Christian?  I don't follow that stuff and have been known to raise one eyebrow at some of the hollywood/nashville gang that are supposed

to be Christian

yeah...I don't think putting on a front is as vogue as it used to be...for different reasons.  Modern society has exacerbated the problem, but, you know, nothings new under the sun....

 

There is no such thing as a perfect marriage.,  It's work I'm afraid LOL!...so many trip over expectations.  As someone once said, the moment your expectations in another person

somehow involve what you believe will be their ability to complete or make you happy, then you are setting yourself up for failure (words to that effect..I didn't word it quite right)

 

If you set goals that involve another's participation in the way you think it should be ordered, you will be disappointed.  It can be hard to let another person just be themself.

oh no.  so sorry!  I was writing about a family I know...I guess it somehow got woven into the Miley narrative.

 

Two different stories.

[Guest LadyC]

oh, ok, LOL. it's alright though. i went googling it, and i guess billy ray has even appeared on the 700 club, so i'm assuming he calls himself a christian. don't know how he reconciles his faith with his pride in his daughter's antics though!

[Sevenseas]

oh?  who knew...hmmmm....I think that sometimes some hosts on 'Christian' TV shows like to display a famous person or two as if to say "Look!  You don't have to give up your life!  Look at this

person ~ all this and heaven too!" 

 

My parents had some book in their library entitled "All This and Heaven Too" when I was growing up...and for some reason, that title stuck in my head and, weird though it may be, I think of it

when I see the kind of lifestyle that screams Hollywood or similar and then they try to tell everyone they are also a Christian.

 

Some are, some aren't...
