Miss Cali Claims She Was 'Biblically Correct'

Sure, she alienated the gay and lesbian audience and probably lost the crown by saying "Marriage should only be between a man and a woman," but Miss USA loser Carrie Prejean has no regrets.

Carrie Prejean: Click to watch
Matt Lauer gave Carrie a second chance to answer the controversial question this morning on "Today." Her answer: "The way that I answered might have been offensive ... but for me, it was being biblically correct."

16. Good for her for sticking to her guns! There are lots of people who don't support gay marriage, and they shouldn't be forced to say they do. She was asked a question and she answered it; if you don't like the answer, too bad.

17. Good for her, SOOOO good for her. Just like a jerk to even ask that question anyway, because he probably knew her answer and wanted to sabatoge her because of her beliefs anyway

19. The only thing she is guilty of is not being media savy. If she were then she would have known that you never, ever answer a loaded question like that with your own personal belief especially if you are going to alienate a whole group of people that you want to represent. Instead you dance around the question so as not to offend anyone on either side. It's done by millions of people every single day. "Does this dress make me look fat" - same type of question. How do you answer without getting yourself in trouble. She just didn't think on her feet very well and unfortunately, if you are Miss USA you are going to be doing a lot of interviews then you have to be good at thinking on your feet as not everything is scripted. She has a right to her own belief, just as everyone else in the world has but when you are in the public eye then you have to be smart enough to know when/how to answer a loaded question correctly which is the least offensive to everyone.

21. Hey Jazz.. they don't "choose to be gay" :)

Just like 99% of people don't CHOOSE to be Christian etc.. they are forced/brainwashed by parents before they ever have a choice.

22. I APPLAUD HER FOR TAKING A STAND FOR THE WORD OF GOD. I WOULD ALWAYS RESPECT AND TREAT ALL PEOPLE
THE SAME, BECAUSE WE ARE TOLD THAT ONLY GOD CAN BE THE JUDGE.

23. I dont think that type of question should have been allowed to ask.. The question, no matter the answer is going to offend someone. I think Hilton, should find other venues to try an make a stance for gay activism.

24. NO GAY MARRIAGE!

25. Can't seem to speak my mind--me do believe TMZ is monitoring every message! No free speech here! TMZ, what CAN I say?

26. Good for Carrie for standing up for her beliefs and convictions.I agree totally with her answer and if you are offended quit judging if you are trying to push your beliefs down others throats and if you dont want to hear others opinions dont ask.As far as her being on stage the way she was dressed wasnt Adam and Eve nude.

27. I applaud her for what she said, I believe it and yesterday was the last day Perez Idiot was welcome in this home. He's now blocked at the router. So Gay people have a right to push their agenda on everyone else to the point of harassment? When did this nation become one nation under homosexuals? Get REAL. If they want PEREZ as their role model they deserve him! He's a media HORE and did this all for publicity. He's loving it and milking it on his blog. YOU GO GIRL!

28. People may not agree with her, but she is entitled to her own belief, opinion

29. It's interesting how this woman is being villified and yet we coked up former actresses getting paid to show up somewhere stoned just because she's a trainwreck.

We have gangster rappers with have all kinds of weapons violations, drug charges, beating up people, and these pieces of crap are revered. They get to cook with Martha Stewart.

This woman will be forever tarnished because she answered a question honestly.

30. I'm gay...but I'm not sure this is particularly "offensive"...probably not what most people (who aren't arguing a political point...which really should have nothing to do with the Bible to begin with, but that's another story) would have stood on a stage and said, but it's her opinion. Not one I agree with and certainly one that has been argued about (whether or not the Bible truly says it's wrong), but whatevs.
I do have to address one thing, though to someone above who mentioned choosing to be gay...just fyi, it's not a choice in most situations. Perhaps one could argue there is a choice to ACT on it, but the actual being gay...not really. Just like straight people choose to act on their desires...so being straight, apparently, is also a choice.
