I am posting this comment before I read the article as a sort of "control" subject, although since I know what the article will be ablut, I obviously can't be any form of blind control.
Already I don't get how 'Christian' and 'American Idol' (read: reality televison of any competitive format) could commingle. If you're there to get the gold, you're not there to glorify god.
I will post a second comment a) if there is something in the article that changes my mind (unlikely) or b) if I feel the need to comment in more detail and/or more directly concerning points raised in the article.
" "It is our goal to wrap God's message — His love — in acceptance, and in a way that blends seamlessly into 'pop' culture while still upholding the values we, as Christians, value most," Wright Generation's mission statement reads."
Just to reiterate: "If you're there to get the gold, you're not there to glorify god."
