Jessica Alba too sexy for the church?

Read this off MSN.ca:

'Sin City' actress Jessica Alba has revealed she quit the Christian church after being told she was too sexy.

Jessica Alba has turned her back on the church after religious leaders condemned her for being too sexy. The 'Sin City' actress found solace in the Christian church after feeling rejected by the Latin community.

However, after four years of being a born-again Christian she QUIT the faith, because she was accused of deliberately trying to attract men.

She told Elle magazine: "Older men would hit on me and my youth pastor said it was because I was wearing provocative clothing, when I wasn't.

"It just made me feel, like, if I was in anyway desirable to the opposite sex, that it was my fault, and it made me ashamed of my body and of being a woman."

The 25-year-old actress also says she could not accept the church's attitude towards premarital sex and homosexuality.

Speaking about the Bible, she added: "I thought it was a nice guide, but it certainly wasn't how I was going to live my life."

Ok, so I just wondered after reading the article: who is to blame here? What drove little Jessica to QUIT the faith? Was Ms. Alba really a born-again Christian to begin with? Can you blame the men who were hitting on her, lusting for her? Was she really being TOO sexy? Is it her fault that she had a body that people looked at and desired? Should females be ashamed to show some skin because guys might get all hot and bothered?

I would like some input. Is this thing on? Anyone hear me?

Bloginated

Ok, I have nothing to write about. I am currently avoiding studying and blogging is, well, not studying. So I'm doing it.

I are very excited for to be home for the Day of Giving of Thanks. I'm looking forward to spending quality time with friends and especially family. I miss my family.

Don't forget to thank God for all that He's blessed you with. Oh and, this is the harder part, to thank Him for the not so good things in life too. I think it says somewhere in the bible to do that. Ya pretty sure.

Praise the Lord!

My bed is here! It is currently sitting in my room, awaiting my slumber tonight. Sleeping on a cot for the past week has help to realise, if only by a little, that I live a charmed life. I have never had to struggle for much, never had to experience loss of anything or anyone near and dear to me. I've had it pretty good, real good in fact, even too good. When have I stopped to thank the One Above for the love?

Getting the bed made me feel more settled here, more independent. You know what else would make me feel more independent, if I owned a car! Anyone know where I can get cheap auto insurance? Any tips leading to a successful insuring of my driving will result in one big "thank you".

Llabtfos, what's that backwards?

Why are we all so obsessed with softball? Even after the CCSA season has ended, pretty much everyone I have talked to has been playing the game pretty regularly. I am no exception to this. Thoughts of softball overwhelm my brain when my academics should be doing that, and I am left waiting and waiting for next season to come. WTF! There's something about this softball.

I am hearing good things about how the game is being used as a ministry tool even beyond CCSA. Does it not make one smile to think that the gifts and tools God has given us are being used to further His kingdom in such a practical, grassroots kinda way? I am sooo encouraged to hear about how the ET'ers are having a good time and meeting new people through this whole Fall Ball thing. I am hoping to use the intramurals team here at Brock as a tool for the Christians on the team to witness to our non-Christian friends. I love how sports ministry can get a group to become so close! It's sorta anecdotal to a Christian faith community to me, even though some people may think that's pushing it a bit.

I am sort of rambling. God is good, too good.

No class tomorrow

That is, no class tomorrow until 3pm, which is still pretty sweet. One of my two thursday classes got cancelled, I love life.

Today was highly productive. I was out ALL day long! Come to think of it, I was actually out for 14 hours. Much fun was had. I am beginning to feel like a commuter student. Probably not as much as Alan, who wakes up at 8 am for a 10am class. What a chump.

Wow, my blog is so boring. Here's a joke:

A seal walked into a club. Har Har.

Brockin' it like it's HAWT

Back to school, back to school, back to school...

My new placeis awesome! Everyone should come visit. I'm currently re-adjusting to living away from home. It's funny cuz I'm actually typing this at home in Markham, and I'll be back every weekend for September. Perhaps the real nitty gritty stuff shall happen in Oct...mayhaps.

So funny story...I bought an air mattress for my house instead of a real one since it's easier to transport. My sister had one for 2 years in Waterloo so I thought it was a good idea. First night I spent in St. Catharines, I woke up in the middle of me slumber to realise that my butt has sunken in and was touching the rack that holds up the mattress: my bed was leaking air. I was sad, angry, humoured, and hungry all at the same time - a glass case of emotions I was in. I decided to just let all the air out and sleep on the mattresses flat on the ground so my body wouldn't be in an awkward bent shape all night. Moral of the story: get a real bed for your university life needs.

It's nice to be back in St. Cat, I have been able to meet up with some good friends, and of course the ladyfriend. I do miss Toronto/ Markham though, I miss it tremendously.
