David Yeagley is the great-great-grandson of Comanche leader Bad Eagle. 
In a moment of sublime absurdity, we find silicon-pumped porn star Pamela Anderson cast in the role of the Virgin Mary in a Hindu-Canadian’s up-coming TV show, “Russell Peters Christmas Special.” Peters is a Hindu-Canadian comedian, we’re told, as if comedy sanctions blasphemy. “The Role She Was Born to Play,” says Jen Chancy, for the Washington Post. From a liberal paper, such a slogan is more truth than headline. Truth is in a jest, says the old Jewish grandmother…

Of course, the silicon celebrity has already been slithering up to Hindu ways. The artificially-breasted Anderson donned a white saree, designed by Bombay-based Ashley Rebello, on Bigg Boss (the New Dehli TV equivalent of American Big Brother). So, when the white culture is burnt out on you, you take your wares to the darkies. When you’re too old for younger set Caucasians, you take your white sacks to the shadows. The light shineth in darkness. Works every time, wrinkles and all.
Bombs-away from Bombay, to New Dehli “Hindi TV.”
It is truly appropriate, in the name of Hindu comedy, to pick porno Pam for the little Palestinian teenage mother, Mary. What could be more agonal in contrast? What could be more visually, emotionally, and psychological more dramatic? It is like a chess board in full regalia, as it were. Chess apparently originated in the Hindi court of the 6th century Guptas, according to the Persian poet Ferdowsi (writing in the late 9th century). White against Dark. This is the new Pamela Anderson ‘chest’ game, or so it appears. Ah, well, the show must go on.
Comedy is what it is. It seems always to have had a place, as entertainment of the more “intellectual” side. It might be difficult to ascertain whether the circus, the jester, or the physical entertainer preceded the thought entertainer; it might be said that thought entertainment evolved from prophecy, history-telling, or poetry. On thing is certain: comedy today incorporates all manner of blasphemy. This is part and parcel. Blasphemy is also contained in what is called modern “art,” especially of the male homosexual sort, like Andres Serrano‘s urine-submerged crucifix.
Comedy is potentially dangerous, with a door always open to inversion. Anything can be turned upside down, or inside out. The impact is based on the significance or importance of the subject. If it is sacred, then comedy is blasphemous. If the subject is serious, the comedy is silly. It is a matter of degrees, in a way. “Humor,” we call it. Interestingly, humor is from a Latin word, humorem, referring to fluid or moisture. According to the OED, its first application is to fluid, in plant or animal, as sap or blood. By Medieval times, it was used in medicinal circles to mean ill, as in lymphatic lumps, visible in the neck. This usage continued well into the 19th century. Lymph nodes were called humors. Today we call it cancer.
So what is humor, a choking of the natural flow of thought? What is comedy, a relief from the drone of reality? a break in the flow? a necessary hiatus of reason?
Hard to say. BadEagle.com has obviously found sport in the subject of Pamela Anderson in the past, but this always purported to be based on the ironic inconsistencies (hypocrisies?) in her political positions and the practices of her personal life. Has this been legitimate humor (if there is such an item)? I’ve also been a great advocate of Freudian sexual theory, so I may have declared my house glass to wit. Well, one can joke about oneself, no?
In the end, we might even say levity may be the soul of wit, but it is simply too flighty a thing to build a house on. Just to write a blog on now and then.

I feel sorry for the poor donkey. Will probably need to be checked for an STD after that ride.

Actually, little Mary was too young to be a prude. She didn’t even have a chance to be a prude. We’re assuming Pamela had a chance to be a virgin…

Who knows, may be it will do Pamela Anderson good to play the role of the mother of Christ, even if she is beginning to show her age.
This just might turn out to be a most profound, life-changing experience for her, sort of like what happened to the Samaritan woman at the well when she encountered Christ.
Paradoxical Pam just might find what she has long been searching for and realize what’s really been missing from her so far pitiful life..
Meanwhile, those who seek to mock Christ through her performance as His mother will find that their plans have backfired, right in their faces.
At least I hope so.
By the way, this is my favorite portrait of Jesus and His mother.

Pam, I shall never be able to thank you enough for your Christian spirit. You have ever been faithful, consistent, and, I think I can say patient as well. I think you beat us all on that score. Ever ready to say a sincere word for Jesus. Again, I thank you.
5 David Yeagley // Nov 15, 2011 at 10:32 pm
You know, that shot of Anderson in the saree is maybe the first picture I’ve ever posted of anything but her face. Maybe I should take that down. (I thought it should be about the saree–which you can’t see with just a portrait…)

Here’s the most beautiful tribute to the Virgin Mary that I know of:

7 Asaph // Nov 16, 2011 at 7:17 am
Yeah, I believe you should find another pic to post, David.
Is that a microphone attached to her clothing?
I saw this on WND, as well. The thought of this poor soul playing Mary has got to be one of the most gross attempts at foulness modern entertainment has ever come up with.
Just another sign of the times. Everything is growing darker. Everything is becoming more corrupt.
I don’t know if anyone has ever found Christ while involved in “acting.” Seems to be an oxymoron. I certainly do not envision Ms. Anderson actively pursuing spiritual thoughts while she “plays” her “part.” Especially in a comedy setting.
8 zephyr // Nov 16, 2011 at 8:09 am
It would be difficult to find a fully-clothed version of Anderson if you’re showing anything other than a head shot.

Here’s an interesting photograph of Pamela before and after she transformed herself into Barbie On Steroids:

Oh, the wonders of modern plastic surgery! (And a lot of walking nightmares too!)

What on earth was Ms. Versace thinking? Isn’t this like taking vanity to the extreme?
Meanwhile, back to our blog subject, Pamela:
Whatever happened to this beautiful young girl?

When this picture was taken do you think she was already imaging her future as the most photographed naked woman in the world?

Speaking of women, Hamlet, in anger and (feigned) madness, exclaims:
“I have heard of your paintings too, well enough; God
has given you one face, and you make yourselves
another: you jig, you amble, and you lisp, and
nick-name God’s creatures, and make your wantonness
your ignorance. Go to, I’ll no more on’t; it hath
made me mad. I say, we will have no more marriages:
those that are married already, all but one, shall
live; the rest shall keep as they are. To a
nunnery, go.” — William Shakespeare
In the opinion of Thrasymachus, girls and young women are always more beautiful just the way God made them; artificial beauty diminishes. Cosmetics should be used only to recapture what age has robbed her of. (If you don’t agree, please forgive Thrasymachus!)

Forgive the abrupt change of topic, but I want people here to know about the findings of an experiment.
Hip-hop music was played to two fetuses in the womb, one black and the other white. The black fetus got excited, while the white fetus grimaced. (I suppose that the white fetus is “racist,” despite never having seen either black or white.;) ) There’s the actual video to watch.
Does Music Affect a Fetus?
12 David Yeagley // Nov 16, 2011 at 4:06 pm
And the fetus was not determined male or female?
Why didn’t they give the heart rate of the white baby hearing the “black” music? Guess it didn’t matter. The face said it all. Maybe the thing wasn’t used to it.
The black baby was probably quite accustomed to it.
I don’t know what this experiment proves, exactly.
Now, my heart rate went up when I did this blog on Pammy… :0
13 David Yeagley // Nov 16, 2011 at 4:07 pm
We’re not finished with Freud yet, either.
14 Pamela K. // Nov 16, 2011 at 4:16 pm
I think your observations are right on target, Thras.
As for the fetus in the womb experiment, how about a fully grown white female left “on hold” after phoning Verizon, being informed by an intermittent mechanized voice that the estimated “hold time” could be up to fifteen minutes while having her ear blasted by hip hop music loud enough to wake the dead? And this was at eight thirty in the morning!
I do not think I am prejudice to say that not only did I find this whole new take on eardrum-shattering elevator music annoying, and enough to produce the flashing lights often associated with the onslaught of a migraine headache, but I also further saw it as a big, black mark on the so-called, “professional courtesy” of Verizon Customer Service.
15 Maharishi of Mayhem // Nov 16, 2011 at 5:09 pm
Has that donkey arrived at the free clinic yet?
The sad thing is that one day, when plastic surgery can no longer do the trick…then what does she have to offer….a porn tape with a junkie drummer?
This is a sad way to live a life. What is more sad is that Americans deify these moral reprobates and fund their outlandish lifestyles.
Makes ya think.
16 Pamela K. // Nov 16, 2011 at 5:09 pm
To say that most males would not be instantly attracted to Pamela Anderson is an understatement.
Most bi-peds of the human male persuasion are very visual creatures and Pam is the embodiment of a living, breathing Barbie doll.
But not just any Barbie doll.
Pam represents the classic Barbie of my childhood, that is before jealous feminists with too much time on their hands snatched her up in their their self-righteous, political correct clutches and flattened her boobs, thickened her tiny waist, and shortened her long lean legs!.
So, I guess I can rightly say that aside from her obvious sex appeal to men and being the world’s most photographed naked woman, Pam best represents classic Barbie’s revenge against those ridiculously jealous women who mutilated her plastic perfection in order to make themselves feel better.
I just hope they never get their vindictive hands on Classic GI Joe.
He just might turn out looking like Suntan Ken.
17 David Yeagley // Nov 16, 2011 at 6:26 pm
Ha!
18 Thrasymachus // Nov 16, 2011 at 8:47 pm
How can anyone watch the video about how a fetus reacts to music and then claim that this is not yet a human being?
19 Pamela K. // Nov 16, 2011 at 9:11 pm
Someone who is selfish and who refuses to acknowledge that life begins at conception, when, along with the physical meeting of the male sperm and the female egg, the breath of God is infused into the womb of the mother.
“For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother’s womb.” Psalm 139:13

Thanks, Pamela! I totally agree.
A little early perhaps, but here’s a brand new Christmas song from Holland. It is sung in English.
I hope you will all enjoy this.
THERE’S A NEW KID IN TOWN – Marcel Elisen & Demis Haneveer
21 Thrasymachus // Nov 16, 2011 at 10:09 pm
As some may know, I lost my mother this past January 7.
While I still had her, I played a lot of music — mostly classical — for her, to help her through those very difficult days after her having a major stroke.
Mom didn’t much like opera, so I played boy- sopranos for her instead. Among the singers she enjoyed were Billy Gilman, Joseph McManners, Declan Galbraith, and Jean-Baptiste Maunier (see above). But she especially liked young Demis Haneveer.

In keeping with the other subject theme here-the Blessed Mother- I think you will appreciate this beautiful song:

Sorry if I’ve made too many off-topic posts.Delete whichever ones you wish.
It’s just that Pam Anderson playing the Virgin Mary is so bizarre that it makes no sense to me. It just seems like another sign of the irrationality of the times. I can easily understand if someone is an unbeliever, but I cannot understand any perverse kind of mockery. We’ve seen it all before with the entertainer who calls herself “the Material Girl.” It’s all culturally destructive. It has no inventive or uplifting side to it at all. It’s simply deconstructive criticism. It’s just an erosion of values, not a building of any true foundation for the future. It lacks vision. Its purpose is to denigrate and destroy.
28 Pamela K. // Nov 17, 2011 at 10:08 am
Thanks, Thras! I love that song! The movie, “O Brother Where Art Thou” has a great soundtrack, especially if you love bluegrass music.
Bluegrass, or “Hillbilly music” has distinctly American roots!
In answer to your question about Pam Anderson and her obvious miscasting as the Virgin Mary, my opinion is that you have to view this from a spiritual perspective, as we are, aside from our flesh and blood, spiritual creatures.
While I mean’t what I said in an early post, that I hope this experience has a profound and life-altering effect on Ms. Anderson for the better, the truth of the matter is, that in this world, mankind is under the sway of the Adversary, or Satan.
Ephesians 2: 3 reminds believers:
“You were following the course and fashion of the world, following the prince of the power of the air. You were obedient to and under the control of the demon spirit that still constantly works in the sons (and daughters) of disobedience (the careless, rebellious) and the unbelieving, who go against the purposes of God.”
There two highly organized kingdoms working behind the scenes in this world. One is the Kingdom of God, the other, the Kingdom of Satan.
By his own admission, the enemy of our souls has been here from the very beginning, wreaking havoc on earth and destroying mankind.
“I come from wander to and fro through the earth and from walking up and down on it.” Job 2:2
Christians are not immune to the wiles of the devil, either. Although we profess our believe in Christ, we still have to deal with our fallen human nature. In recent years, it seems that more and more self-professed Christians would rather compromise with sinful behavior, adopting the popular worldly stance called “tolerance”.
Some of these Christians, when confronted about their “tolerance” are quick to defend their behavior, saying, “Well, Jesus was tolerant.”
Yes, He was tolerant, especially when dealing with the hypocritical Pharisees. He could have very easily cast them all into Hell and never gave it a second thought. But because Jesus loved first, He instead admonished these hate-filled men with scripture.
Jesus knew it was their sin of religious pride that was keeping them from experiencing a true and lasting fellowship with God.
29 David Yeagley // Nov 17, 2011 at 11:30 am
Well, let’s remember one other thing, too: this casting of Anderson is in a comedy skit special, by a Hindu comedian in Canada, who was raised Catholic.
In a way, I kind of feel sorry for Pamela. She can’t refuse any role at this point, professionally, and the whole Hindu bit she’s into is necessary for her.
I don’t know that she would have any particular disposition to mock the Christ story.
Pamela (the BadEagle.com Pamela!), we can only rejoice in your deep-founded spiritual reflections on this incident. I share your sentiments for Anderson, as I’m sure we all here do.
The individual who is suspect in the matter is me, for even posting on Anderson. I think it’s a macho thing. Beyond the natural appeal she has to any normal male, there is the bit about the macho man who wants to protect the damsel in distress. Of course, that is an old European, Elizabethan image from the days of the knights.
White traditions for white people. I just toy with them, from the side line laboratories.

It’s kinda funny, but I’ve basically dropped out of popular entertainment. I don’t follow the current stars.
The last recollections of Pamela Anderson that I have date back to her days on TV’s “Baywatch.”
I haven’t watched television much in the last twenty years. I only see it, for the most part, when visiting friends.
32 Thrasymachus // Nov 17, 2011 at 4:14 pm
Even as a child, I felt guilty watching television. And this was not because I was scolded for doing so. It was just a natural reaction. “Shouldn’t I be doing something else?” I’ve never cared for spectator sports. For those who actually go out and play them — yes. For the couch potatoes who merely watch thousands of hours of televised sports? I never could understand that.
Dolly Parton is a sex symbol — but she’s also a devout Christian. I certainly don’t think that all entertainers are intentionally rebellious. Pamela Anderson may well be a good person. And she may yet find her way in Christ.
