When a celebrity makes public his/her conversion, I prefer to block the door to any useless doubting. Better is certainly to pray. And learn to walk in others' shoes is a habit we should restart to apply diligently in our daily life.
Let us not underestimate secular singers, especially when we do not know what it is like living in their world. Especially when we do not know what it is like to come out before a mass of 5000 people who have paid a considerable amount of money and expect their expectations not to be deluded.
In our ordered life we are taught to submit to a certain combination of uses, customs, beliefs, mentality, etc. that vary depending on the country, but that do not really allow much room to the soul and its needs, our fundamental needs. I don't need any spectacular look to vindicate my unicity, but I am beginning to understand the reason of much rebellion and consequent attitudes. A question follows: who are we really? Men like Paul, or no more than burning common ones? Women modeled by God, or no more than the opposite version of the repressed ones of the past?
I have decided for a basic rule: pray yes, judge not. Excuse not, understand yes. System not, person yes. Jesus yes-He-can. Friend yes, preacher not. It's an attempt to widen my horizons, never to “adjust” God's rules. Not only earthly we live, but there exist a spiritual realm as well, a reality before which celebrities are no more than what they truly are: human. Who will have to open their eyes as well.
