Loading ...Christianity Today tackles breast jobs and sex tapes
flockwoodI’m guessing Billy Graham didn’t have this in mind when he launched Christianity Today more than a half-century ago, but here it is.
An interview with former Miss California Carrie Prejean in which she discusses her own plastic surgery and an adult video that she made.
Sarah Pulliam Bailey has done a good job with the assignment, but I’m not sure whether this story meets the Philippians 4:8 standard:
“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”

Every time I see the name Carrie Prejean, for a second I think they’re talking about Helen Prejean, the nun whose story became the movie “Dead Man Walking,” one of my favorites. I don’t find the younger Prejean nearly as interesting, even if she did have cosmetic surgery. And when they do a movie about Miss Carrie, which you know they will, I doubt they’ll have Susan Sarandon play her.

Ever read Song of Solomon? And it’s hardly the focus of the story.

In fact, your headline doesn’t quite accurately portray the CT article. It didn’t “tackle” the issue. It asked one question about it. It’s relevant because it is an issue in litigation that Prejean started.

Prejean’s lawyer is still making sueing noises, (toward TMZ). I think Sarah Pulliam Bailey has a nose for news, and laid a timeline.
Prejean is a morality/culture story and I think it’s interesting CT did the interview.
Equally interesting is the reactions.

I still think she let Carrie off light.
