American Idol

Edward Veith notes that American Idol winner is a Christian and is pro-life:
WORLD's John Dawson has written a great story on the background of American Idol-winner Jordin Sparks. It turns out that Jordin - who is the daughter of former NFL defensive back Phillippi Sparks - is a big pro-life activist, who has been singing at anti-abortion rallies for years. She and her family are committed Christians, and she had already been identified as an up-and-coming gospel singer.

.... John also identified three more of the top finalists as having similar Christian backgrounds: Melinda Doolittle, Phil Stacey, and Chris Sligh.

No one should be surprised, I guess. Church is just about the only place anybody sings anymore. That and ballgames. Of course, that is changing in many churches, with their piped-in Christian muzak and solo performances replacing congregational singing. But still....
