Pageant PR rep accuses Miss California of lying

By LISA LEFF – 4 hours ago

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A spokesman for the Miss California pageant on Monday denied that contest officials told the reigning beauty queen to publicly apologize for her statement opposing same-sex marriage during the Miss USA pageant.

Carrie Prejean, 21, claimed during Sunday services at her San Diego church that producers of the state pageant told her to apologize to the gay community and to avoid mentioning religion when she appeared last week on the "Today" show and other national programs.

But San Diego public relations representative Roger Neal, who said he was one of the people advising her, called those claims lies. Contest officials urged Prejean only to reiterate that she didn't mean to offend anyone and to use the national spotlight "to heal some wounds," he said.

"She chose to stand up in church and in front of the media and say something that was a lie," Neal said. "No one ever said, 'You must apologize to the gay community,' and no one ever said, 'Don't talk about your faith or your religion.' Those two things never came out of anybody's mouth."

Prejean didn't immediately return a call from The Associated Press on Monday. :puke:

1. aawwww, ain't she cute?

I'm sure God is very proud of how she looks in a bikini.

:puke:

3. Did you really expect better behavior from a Christian?

She's just being a Christian. When you believe in the foundational lies upon which all religions are based, adding lies of your own is a pretty small step.

"For if the truth of God hath more abounded by my lie unto his glory, why yet am I also adjudged a sinner?" (St. Paul, Romans 3.7)

"What harm would it do, if a man told a good strong lie for the sake of the good and for the Christian church ... a lie out of necessity, a useful lie, a helpful lie, such lies would not be against God, he would accept them."
– Martin Luther (Cited by his secretary, in a letter in Max Lenz, ed., Briefwechsel Landgraf Phillips des Grossmüthigen von Hessen mit Bucer, vol. I.)

5. I would never allow her to taint my view of all Christians...there

are many wonderful Christians on the left who are supportive of gay people.

So to answer your rhetorical question, no, I did not expect better behavior from that type of of Christian.

[yardwork]

12. That statement is unfair to many Christians and untrue.

She's a liar and a homophobe who happens to identify as a Christian. Many Christians don't agree with her and don't behave the way she's behaving.

[Lerkfish]

17. that's a fairly broad brush, there.

[stopbush]

20. I calls 'em like I sees 'em.

The "good type" of Christians seem to me to be akin to the "good type" of facists. It's not the people who are at fault, it's their core beliefs which are inhuman, perverted and disgusting.

[Lerkfish]

23. I feel sorry for you, then.

truly sad to be filled with such hatred, you're the one who suffers for it.

[roguevalley]

22. yes I expect better behavior from a Christian. She is not a Christian.

If people would separate these fascists theocrats from Christians we would all be happier.

[Warpy]

4. That ugly's gonna come to the surface, sister,

so you'd better find a way to get rid of it.

I don't think she was eliminated because of her conventionally religious viewpoint. I think she was eliminated because she was tactless to the point of offending everybody else.

[saltpoint]

6. A real christian -- by which I mean somebody who has actually read the

New Testament and understands the tenets of the ministry of Jesus as they are presented in that text -- would not care one damn who is sleeping with whom. There are other more important fish to fry and many more loaves to bake, etc.

This woman appears to lack critical thinking skills. To say the least.

It's one thing for her to speak her mind, such as it is, in fundie-friendly venues. But let's see how she does in an interview with say, Amy Goodman or Katha Pollitt.

I'd pay money to hear that.

[bluedawg12]

7. Look at those two sitting there, what are they good for? Media bobble heads.

They know nothing, do nothing, make nothing.

She can't even get her pre-written utterances straight. ooomph.! gag.

[zbdent]

8. don't you get it?

this is her audition for media parrot position at Faux News ...

[bluedawg12]

9. bingo! she earned her stripes with the religousriechtwing. n/t

[ronnykmarshall]

10. Just wait .... she's going to step down

and go full blast media hog about it.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

11. Bingo. I bet she's even studying the bible right now (at least the "important" parts).

[sui generis]

13. poor girl ain't too bright

If she was smart she could have had her belief and ate it too: all she would have had to say is "I'm personally not an advocate of gay marriage for my own reasons of faith, but I also don't believe that my beliefs should override someone else's personal life, beliefs and choices. Speaking for myself, it's very unlikely that I'd marry a woman."

But girl stupid.

[immoderate]

15. Yep. She lost for lack of tact. She answered the question.

The trick is to not answer the question -- but in an elegant way.

[FSogol]

14. You know, I don't go to Church that often, but that that looks more like a scene from 1984

than a Church service. :shrug:

[FreeState]

16. She goes to the Rock Church here in San Diego - big Prop 8 supporters and ex-gay program

Its a mega church that just moved to a new building by the airport. Its extremely anti-gay.

[Hepburn]

18. Fucking RW liar.....gag...

...:puke:

She what happens when bleach and man-tan go through the scalp and to the brain?

[roody]

19. In the fundamentalist Christian culture I grew up in,

Christians did not wear bikinis that showed your pubics if you did not shave. What happened?

[pleah]

21. Maybe she is trying for a job on fox noise.

She fits the requirements. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
