"Crucifixes are sexy because there’s a naked man (Jesus) on them." – Madonna
Despite 740,811 emails asking the network to cancel Madonna’s mocking of the crucifixion of Christ in an up-coming November special, NBC still plans to air the crucifixion mockery scene.
NBC said they found nothing wrong with the scene mocking the crucifixion of Christ. Such was not the case when NBC refused to show Danish newspaper cartoons depicting Muhammad in a negative light. NBC’s message? Show respect for Muslims, but it is ok to bash Christians.
In the special, Madonna, wearing a fake crown of thorns, descends on a suspended mirrored, disco ball-type cross. Click here to see photos of Madonna’s crucifixion scene.
Madonna has mocked Christ for many years. In 1989 she released a video for the song "Like A Prayer." The video featured burning crosses, statues crying blood and Madonna–representing Jesus–freeing a saint from his sexual repression by seducing him.
