does anyone think that becouse of american idol that america is doomed for hell?

Yes, America is doomed.  Not for any religious reason but, American Idol is a cult that is eating the souls of everyone that participates.

Duhhhhh.... Is American Idol THAT important to you that you think there is a "conspiracy"??\n\nWell... Lets do some numbers, shall we?\n\nBesides Kelly Clarkson (who is no longer under contract with Simon Cowell) how many OTHER winners are still making sellable records and/or hits???\n\nRueben?\nFantasia?\numm.... ummm..... I am sure there were other "winners"...\n\nNow, lets see how the "losers" are doing...\n\nClay Aiken? \nBo Bice?\nCarrie Underwood?\nJosh Gracin?\nFrenchie Davis?\nWilliam Hung?\nKimberly Locke?\nRJ Helton?\nMarque Lynche?\nVanessa Olivarez?\nTrenyce?\nKira Scott?\n\nALL of the above listed "losers" have a MUCH better chance, as they are NOT wrangled into a year long contract that can kill their career. ((See Rueben vs. Clay for example.))\n\nAre you nuts?\n\nGet a life.

I can't wait until next season!!  Do you think a male or female will win next year?  I think we need a rocker to go all the way next time!  I wonder where the auditions are being held?  \n\nThings like that, because we have absolutely no life other than American Idol....yeah, right!  Don't diss us, we're just having fun :)

Nope, and they won't, as long as they run morons like Kerry, Americans in general are very intelligent, and as long as the democrats, keep putting up  morons, without a smart agenda, they will continue to lose. but the real loser is America. As long as we have politictions that are more worried about their careers than what is good for America. We all lose.

Same thing that happened to the ones from last year, they go back to reality... it's ironic really that reality tv is so far removed from the real world.  American Idol is just as bad.\n\nI liked a couple of the guys from the first year, and they disappeared off the planet at the end of the show!

That's an excellent question and I have doubts that it will ever entirely disapear, but i think it will continue to decline especially in western culture where it seems as we're getting increasingly secular. I often think of Europe as America's older and more matured brother. They have low rates of church attendance. I think that for better or for worse, america is heading in the same direction. But as i said earlier, i don't think we'll ever see a compete eradication of religion. There are still people who believe the earth is flat, so even when all the evidence is in, there will still be people who belive in the divinity of christ. Oops, couldn't help being a little condescending towards christianity there.

I am a Christan and would fight to the death for my country. \n\nAs for how America will fall, I seriously doubt we will fall from outside forces. We WILL fall and we will fall from within. The signs are already there. (but I do feel we are still about 75-100 years from that)

No, I think it's more exposing the stupidity and shallowness of most American people. OK, at least SOME.\n\n(Meaning many people who know about Idol and vote don't even know who their state representatives even are, much less voted to elect them)

The short answer to your question is "yes".  \n\nOnce the judges come up with the top 12 (based on talent), then America decides.  At that point it becomes 70% about popularity and 30% about talent.  People vote for a person that 1) they identify with OR 2) more importantly - they want to be like.  It is American IDOL.  \n\nUltimately people didn't like Mandisa enough.  Perhaps this is because she is black, overweight, a woman, in her late 20's, etc.  It's quite sad because she deserved to go further in the competition just based on her voice alone.

I love American Idol (even though I'm from the older generation - 52) and have watched it since the firt American Idol.  I love watching the people who think they can sing, but can't, but have to give them kudos for having the guts to get up in front of the judges and television, with millions of people watching and take a beating like they do.  But I love Idol most for the seriously talented young people that you see once in a while that get the chance to be successful in music when you see that they do have the talent and ambition but left on their own, they would have much less chance of "being discovered".  I think the show is great for helping serious artists looking for a break.

No, American Idol is too intellectually challenging for him.  He might end up looking stupid.  Oh wait...

First of all I don't think that Islamification of America is a possibility anywhere in the near future unless the democrats come in and screw everything up. Second of all if more people knew about Islam then they might not be so quick to jump on the band wagon and call for a retreat from Iraq. In fact if Americans weren't so ignorant and looked into things before they went jumping to anything then America would probably be in a lot better shape. Did you know that there are over 100 million Islamic believers around the world? If we were really generous and said that only 1% wanted to kill Christians, and by Christians I mean all Americans because that is how they see America, then that means there are over 1 million Islamics that wish Americans to die. The number in all reality is closer to 14% which means there are 14 million Islamics that wish to kill Americans. Islam is a threat to America and if the American government and its people do not take action there could be severe consequences.

IMO,if an unbelieving sinner does get voted in and it possibly will happen then believers will be gone and the world will definitely become even more worse with a higher percentage of sexuality immorality such as homosexuality,bestiality and rapes,increase in more criminal violence,increase in murdering of fetuses and increase in fear in every individual because the spirit of God will no longer exist nor morality. This world will go to Hell in a hand basket, Thank God that I won't be here to see it! \n*(*

I heard the same thing. Unfortunately , if you listened to it even once it's too late - you will indeed go to hell. I once listened to Kansas City Here I Come and two weeks later I went to Kansas City !

My God!!! I really really really hope it will be hell. I could never stand to be around all of those...those....creepy types with names like Marge and...Midge...I know they will all be there in heaven feeling all perky and what not. Can you imagine?.."Are you happy Midge?  Have another pop tart and some Pepsi"..   They be there worshipping and singing all those dull hymns all the night and day crowded in together trying to get 15 seconds with Jesus. I can just see JC now with the angels all around trying to keep crowd control... C'mon, C'mon...stay in line now...you you ..over there now...in line..\n    I want to be around folks that danse and fuck and get it on... really ...right?

Given the situation, there's a high chance that America could fall into an economic depression. Looking at it now, it seems almost impossible to pay off the debt. I believe that America will collapse if it suffers from severe depression and attacked from numerous outside forces. But then again, America's suffered two depressions and it managed to survive, so we'll see.

I would say straight to hell, but that sounds a little harsh... Instead how about there are far to many sinfull people living there, with only a few (one of whom I would say is President Bush) trying to follow God and live like Christians!!
