I said "inconsistent" as in liking AI, but not liking a church choir contest. You're as bad on this debate as you were in the New Living Translation argument.
Let's review ...

From reading the quote it doesn't look like you see a difference. You stated 1) that you would never participate in it; 2) you want those who feel choir vs AI is apple vs oranges to "just think about it."
So where is the part where you acknowledge the difference?

Again, where do you acknowledge seeing the difference? I see you said "yes I know some of you will say that's inconsistent with AI" but then you added, "but just think about it."
There was nothing noting you seeing a difference between the two. In fact, your statement shows you don't see a difference and you want others (some of you) who do to "just think about it." Because really to you, both are the same.
So now we are seeing the gay agenda being promoted here?
What do you think? When we should not promote such trash and people who promote such lifestyles no matter how good they are. What do we have.... oh I love him and will buy blah blah. What does it matter....
All I have to say is warped, seduced and cold you are!
Inconsistent to like one and dislike the other!!!!! Aaaacccckkkkk!!!!! I'm not gonna explain this anymore.
They are VERY different which was my exact point. One is a singing competition to get a recording contract; the other is a competition to see who can praise God the best and do ministry the best. I find that deplorable.
If you disagree, just state your case instead of this stupid beam in the eye malarkey. It doesn't make any sense.

Wow.
You conduct "Adam adoration sessions" in your church staff meetings; you love a competition which glorifies the individual and promotes all kinds of filth in lyrics and styles ... yet you find a choir competition deplorable?
What kind of church do you pastor and what kind of pastor are you?
I've never met a christian, much less a pastor, who deplores a contest that uplifts the Name of Jesus and creates worship and praise.

"For instance, one person believes it's all right to eat anything. But another believer with a sensitive conscience will eat only vegetables. Those who feel free to eat anything must not look down on those who don't. And those who don't eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, for God has accepted them. Who are you to condemn someone else's servants? They are responsible to the Lord, so let him judge whether they are right or wrong. And with the Lord's help, they will do what is right and will receive his approval." (Romans 14:2-4)
Think what you will. I'm not gonna argue with you about it anymore.
I've NEVER watched AI till this past season and even then I missed too many
*darn* I watched only 'cause of this guy [I wish I could see all the episodes I missed with him singing, I heard I missed some really great ones] he is THE BEST, I agree that voice is FOR REAL and does just about anything.
Just watched this video - EXCELLENT and the movie is 2012??? Oh great!I shoulda known someone would make a movie about that.
People are making sooo much of that year .. but thats another topic.
ANYWAY I LOVE ADAM LAMBERT, his personal life aside. I do believe he is
ALREADY a superstar., I've seen some of his other video's from his past [excellent] he has been shining for a long time., and is a PRO, IMHO., he IS the best one of all the stars that have come from AI (that I know of, lol)
and in this newest video he is awesome! He looks a bit different though, but
for THAT video I guess he had to, and its a great look.
I highly doubt that ADAM will self-destruct., but I wish that he was heterosexual, I mean, IF he self-destructed it would have to be from AIDS.
With his performance Sunday and interview on CBS, I believe he is currently self-destructing.
