American Idol - a tool for promoting christianity

What a load of absolute bullshit.This has me going. I am blown down by the blatant christian attempts to take over a secular business show.When did American Idols become a christian show broadcast on a christian channel? It hasn't. I wonder how much the church paid for the "top 8" to play this song?Have a lovely listen:It pains me to place this sort of stuff on my blog but I just can't help but wonder how the hell this got on to TV??I know that the states is struggling with political independance, secularism in schools and "religious terrorists" but this video/situation strikes me as propaganda.It's as if they are saying, "Oh look how proud your American Idols are too sing about the lord, and only a good American Idol would sing about the lord and if you want to be an American Idol you must sing about the lord." Bollocks.What would've happened if one of them said no? What would've happened in the press if one of them was jewish or an atheist? I am dissapointed and am probably not going to watch this innuendo-pushing-program anymore. Done.

Inherent Corporate Indoctrination

I have just completed a corporate freelancing job at a Certain Cellurar provided that I wont mention by name. I am astounded as to the consistent remarks that i received regarding the interviewees (recent graduates) impression of the company.There two opinions were so congruent that I can't help but think that they were coached. I am almost 100% sure that they were not coached in their responses, however the comments were remarkably close. This has led me to question the inherent corporate indoctrination that is present in major corporations around the world. If you are getting paid enough, if you consistently happy at your job then you shout praises for your employer from the rooftops. Whether the praises are the truth or not, they are true for the person shouting them.I have also completed an interview with another major corporation in South Africa that deals with electricity in some way or another. The human resources manager is incredibly good at what he does and honestly made me believe that this corporate was the best company in the world to work for, in spite of me conducting the interview. While back at the ranch the public profile of the company is in absolute disarray.These scenarios are much like the movie Thank you for smoking, which i loved. Can you justify selling cigarettes to a 16 year old if you are getting paid well enough?At the end of the day it is a personal choice but one that I think I might be struggling to come to terms with.
