Saw the viral video going around of a bunch of white Christians singing Madonna‘s “like a prayer” as a praise song without realizing the lyrics describe a sex act and I think as Republican conservatives and white Christians they’d all be horrified to realize that the act described is consensual.
@JuliusGoat it's probably one of those things like how the Song of Solomon is an allegory of Christ's love for the Church haha
@JuliusGoat The viral video is a bunch of Germans singing in a decidedly non-religious pop-choir. https://youtu.be/uLTrwejNyNM

@JuliusGoat They do the same for Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", which is also about sex.
@JuliusGoat
I find it hilariously clueless when Christians sing Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah, which is a treatise on Jews fucking.
@JuliusGoat
I don't know. I mean, i see a lot of people request "someone great is gone" to mourn a lost parent. (It's a song about losing your sidepiece when your wife finds out, perhaps vice versa)
@JuliusGoat, I think you will be surprised. White, Christian, conservative Republicans have lost all of their dignity. Look at who they've chosen to be President: #DonaldTrump, a #racist, #convictedfelon and #rapist. If they'll vote for that guy, who says he can grab women by the genitals anytime, they won't care about the meaning of #Madonna's "Like a Prayer".

@JuliusGoat

That really does accurately describe so much of white christendom: all surface veneer and empty inside.

The same people who give each other assault weapons to celebrate the birth of the Prince of Peace.
