Oxymoron

How can you have a show like American Idol and then at the end have the contestants sing Shout to The Lord? That in itself is an Oxymoron. It totally bugged me. I hated the fact that they were trying to raise money, but used God to pull at America's heart strings. They had all the contestants dress in white (cheessssy) and sing a praise song. I think about how Americans are trying to take God's name out of the pledge of allegiance but at the same time will use Gods name when they want to make something happen. We simply can not put God in a box and take Him out when when we need help. Why don't people use Him when something good is going on in life? Do we take Him out of the box then? Anyways, just thought I would express and vent my irritation!

Wow, they really sang that on American Idol! that is strange! Well, hopefully the Lord used it to touch someone's heart. That's the awesome thing about God, he uses the craziest stuff that we would never imagine!
