There's no rule that says you have to be respectful towards religion.

IWKYB

Yet everybody only attacks one...the "safe" one.

I don't believe that's true. Muslims are constantly attacked for their religion.

Edit: Well, maybe not as much in the media.

As a Christian, I don't really care. People get offended too easily.

Obviously her motivation was to be 'provocative', ie to gin up controversy, so I can't bring myself to be offended.

RIght as a christian. :D This is a clear insult to Catholics. Which are "safe" bait. Unlike Islam. The media has them covered. Political correctness or the terrorists won by fear alone?

Lady Gaga's new video for her song alejandro is just weird and wrong. I'm not sure what many of the things mean, but its quite clear that she is being disrespectful to christianity. how does it make you feel to her doing things like swallowing a rosary and dressing up as a catholic priestess and getting "raped". Do these images offend you , or do you just not care ?

Androvinus

She's free to do whatever she wants. Personally, it just adds to her already skanky image.

Isn't it bad to worship idols anyway? Surely a rosary shouldn't cause too much offense. It's only beads at the end of the day. I don't think there's anything in the bible which declares the rosary as holy or anything.

So if she's not religious, and there's no religious intention there, is she not just swallowing some beads rather than a religious medium?

Uh..I haven't seen this video. IT sounds disgusting and SWALLOWING a Rosary? That's Sacrilegious. Dressing up as a Nun and Getting "Raped" is also not a good thing to do.

Rosary Beads aren't being worshiped as Idols. They are used for Praying the Rosary, They are also Blessed by a Priest.

Rosaries don't mean much for Baptists I don't think, so I can't say I care much. I'm not catholic.

Comments on the video's symbolism from the director Steven Klein:

"The religious symbolism is not meant to denote anything negative, but represents the character's battle between the dark forces of this world and the spiritual salvation of the Soul," Klein wrote. "Thus at the end of the film, she chooses to be a nun, and the reason her mouth and eyes disappear is because she is withdrawing her senses from the world of evil and going inward towards prayer and contemplation." Klein added that the scene in which Gaga ingests the rosary beads is meant to represent "the desire to take in the holy."

I personally saw it as people being willing to swallow religion hook, line and sinker, along with everything else that comes with it including it's negative implications, but oh well.

She can do whatever she likes. Obviously she's doing a good job because it only spreads the word about her stuff for every guy who makes a topic saying how good / bad / weird it is. I don't care for what she does at the moment.

Everything this stupid girl does is just to get attention. Anyone see her at the baseball game? She came dressed in a "top" that was a freaking bra and a "bottom" that was basically decorated underwear. She left the stadium while flipping everyone off.

I'm not saying this to be mean, but I think she's going to end up dead in the future from drug overdose.

I believe it was a metaphor for "taking in", or swallowing, your religion.

No, I am not offended by it, I love the video.

I really don't care what she does in her videos. One of the main reasons she is popular is that she likes to shock people. She is just going through her Madonna phase. I respect her for writing her own songs, but there are so many better female songwriters around that I find it hard to care about her.

I saw it coming. As she's clearly trying to be a carbon-copy of Madonna, something of this sort was all but inevitable.
