BEYONCE: Beyond bad taste

I don’t usually watch the Grammy Awards show, because it has relegated itself to unclothed women. I find that the country music awards show has a little more class. However, with that being said, my husband turned the television on and selected the Grammy Award show. I enjoyed some of the music and suddenly Beyoncé was “front and center.” I was absolutely appalled and offended on so many levels. If I want to see a pregnant woman’s body, I will work in obstetrics. Please, a naked pregnant woman is only beautiful to her spouse; otherwise, is profoundly ugly — better clothed. What truly offended me, as a Catholic woman, was the replication of the appearance of the Virgin Mary with halos surrounding Beyoncé’s head and the heads of the other women on stage. This is blasphemous! What is society doing! We have become such a classless society with very little morals and values. We, as a society, have fallen so low, that all we can do is look up. How sad.
