Annie Leibovitz -- Mouse Got Yer Tongue?

Disney and the Cyrus family have been tearing Annie Leibovitz a new one since her bareback Miley pic came out in Vanity Fair -- but if the photog is pissed at 'em, she ain't gonna talk about it.

61. Hey Annie, don't sweat the lesbian jokes. The fundies only say you'll burn in eternal hellfire... until they want to transition from pre-teen star to teen idol. Then they hire you.

business as usual.

62. I don't know what all the fuss is over. The pictures are not "porn" soft or otherwise. It is a beautiful shot of a young girl. My daughter is the same age and I'm very protective over her and I would have no problem with the picture if it were her. If her parents don't like it, they should have stayed for the whole shoot. And if anyone is to blame, it's the Grandmother that was there and approved the picture. She's a 15 year old girl. Let her be a 15 year old girl. She was completely covered in the shot other than her back. I don't see what the big deal is unless you're a pervert.

63. 55. To "M": I take my lessons from the Bible. That's all I need to know right from wrong.

LEV 20:13 'If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them.
==============================================================

So where in the Bible does it say anything about a woman lying with a woman? Isn't that what's being discussed here?

You would be putting your own, sinful human words in God's mouth if you try to assert that Lev 20:13 says anything at all about woman-to-woman sex. I'm sure that you are not a blasphemer, right?

Show us Chapter and Verse where _anything_ is said about a woman lying with a woman.

If you assert that we have to take the Bible literally, then you can't pick and choose. You must go by God's Word and NO ONE ELSE'S ... not even your pastor's words, not even Pat Robertson's, and certainly not your own.

64. Romans 1:26. Look it up. While yoiu're at it, check out verses 27 and 28, too.

65. Hmm ...

Romans 1:26,27,28: "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;"

Where does God define "change the natural use into that which is against nature"? It doesn't say they were lying with each other. This could be any kind of "immorality" that sinful, arrogant human reasoning might want to assign to these words, such as oral sex with men, anal sex with men, etc. Those activities could certainly be thought of as not being the natural uses of the mouth and the anus.

In any case, I don't know what those words mean, AND YOU DON'T KNOW, EITHER. Any meaning you assign to them is from your own human imagination, and nothing more.

And if you believe in taking the Word of God literally, then you can't even rely on the reasonings of "Bible scholars", who also are sinful, arrogant humans who are blaspheming if they try to put words in God's mouth.

The point is that if you want to be a Bible Literalist, then you must take the Bible EXACTLY LITERALLY in 100 percent of the cases WITH NO EXCEPTION, or else you are a hypocrite.

By the way, in the Revelation of John, do you take all the words in that book as being 100 percent literal truth? If so, then you can't start saying that the Beast is simply a representation of the European Union or OPEC or any of the myriads of other interpretations that people have come up with. You must simply take it literally to be some sort of animal. Period. The same holds true for all the other visions that are described in that book.

If, on the other hand, you concede that we cannot always take the Bible as 100 percent literal truth, then you open the door to differences of interpretation. Your pastor says one thing, mine says something else, and Jeremiah Wright says yet another thing. Which one is right?

And then, if we allow those differences in interpretation, then we must allow the Jewish interpretation, which says that Jesus was not the Messiah, or the Islamic interpretation which says that Jesus was holy but not the Son of God, or the Mormon interpretation, or that of the Hindus, or of the Buddhists, or of the Scientologists, or ...

The only way to protect yourself from being deceived by human interpretations is to take what's written in the Bible exactly as is, with no reading between the lines, no interpretation, no pastors, no Bible scholars. Just the words in the book. PERIOD.

Of course, you then will have to deal with challenges when you come across the contradictions, but as long as you don't try to use your sinful human reasoning to resolve them, you'll be OK.

66. This woman should be ashamed of herself-selling out a 15 year old girl-the parents are at fault too

67. Hey Consumers, As usual you took this one hook line and sinker and it seems to be getting easier everytime. Just another fabricated controversy. Is everyone retarded or what?

68. Wow - I can't believe the big too-do over the picture of her in the sheet - - she's covered!! She isn't nude! She has less on when wearing her bikini!! I am more creeped out by the photo of Miley - a 15 year old teenager - with her head in her washed up dad's lap!!! What teenage girl would ever pose with her dad - like that??? None that I know!! But of course I guess he is just trying to hold on to that last few minutes of his 15 minutes!!!

71. Tempest in a teapot.. So the sqeaky little tart showed some skin. Not one aquare inch more than you would see in a swimsuit. So what's the big deal? I think you are all a bunch of dirty minded guttersnipes.

72. Well, I was going to comment here, but then remembered that most of those who are denegrating Annie obviously have no idea of her work or of her life. Funny, I'm always surprised by the absolute idiocy and degeneration of those that post such nasty comments. No wonder this country is in such a state of moronic messiness. Such a shame.

73. What if Anne Leiboitz's was setup by both camps of the Cyrus Enterprise? For example, Miley is getting older and this could be the beginning of her crossover into much older roles to play (i.e., expanding the Enterprise's longevity). This is again a perfect execution of "No Publicity is Bad Publicity" - She name is out there everyday and in a different light then we are use to seeing her in...think about. I"m just saying!!!

74. If the press had been + instead of - would Disney or The Cyrus Family be attacking Annie?
I am sorry but Disney and Cyrus's Family have to take responsibility here and stop this all out attack on Annie.I think what happened is that Miley is preparing for crossing over once her teeny booper image is gone and then Disney had a cow, think Jamie Lynn Spears. These young ones need to be just that, young ones and stop trying to grow up before your time. Look at Lindsey Lohan, she's 21 and looks like an old whore because she grew up toooooooooo fast.
These parents need to take a long hard look at what they are doing to their children.

BACK OFF AND LEAVE ANNIE ALONE
