Religous Leaders Cross With Madonna

Madonna has released a statement explaining her reasoning behind the controversial "crucifix scene" on her Confessions Tour. In the statement, she says, "I am very grateful that my show was so well received all over the world. But there seems to be many misinterpretations about my appearance on the cross and I wanted to explain it myself once and for all." ... Phew!... What a relief. I've been to six chat rooms, polled thousands of concerned citizens, and attended a Town Hall meeting in Czestochowa trying to sort out exactly what she was trying to convey to me.
"There is a segment in my show where three of my dancers 'confess' or share harrowing experiences from their childhood that they ultimately overcame. I then absolve them of all sin and only then are they able to simultaneously fondle me throughout the next stanza.
My 'confession' follows and takes place on a Crucifix that I ultimately come down from, to the relief of most of the audience, who are worried I will see it through until I "give up the ghost".
This is not a mocking of the church. It is no different than a person wearing a Cross or 'Taking Up the Cross' as it says in the Bible. I have to agree here, I can't go a day in public without bumping into one of those "cross wearers", (and I have the scars to prove it).
My performance is neither anti-Christian, sacrilegious or blasphemous...
Can I get a Hallelujah!?
Rather, it is my plea to the audience to encourage mankind to help one another and to see the world as a unified whole. I believe in my heart that if Jesus were alive today he would be doing the same thing." Yes, it is a shame that Jesus is dead, I'm sure he could have straightened out this whole debacle.
The song ends with a quote from the Bible's Book of Matthew: 'For I was hungry and you gave me food. I was naked and you gave me clothing. I was sick and you took care of me,' and God replied, 'Whatever you did for the least of my brothers... you did it to me."'
My quote to Madonna, "For I was hungry, and you made me lose my appetite. I was naked and you gave me that pointy cone-shaped bra thingy. I was sick and you made me projectile vomit."
