Man, and on that album, we could also remake the song Poker Face! It’ll go like this: Muh My Savior M-M-M Savior.

And then as soon as you know it, we’ll have a full album of dance tracks and we’ll have to have our own Christian version of So You Think You Can Dance! Don’t you just see it now?

I have a friend on Facebook who is a pastor and is always posting comments about things he’s doing with his “hottie wife”. It’s like he’s trying too hard, to be honest. Why can’t she just be his wife?

yes mine does… and its worse for me… they are my inlaws… now dont get me wrong. I love my in-laws, but comeon, no one wants to hear about it. LOL

I'm a pastor, I married up and my wife is gorgeous, but even better, she's an awesome mother to our 5 kids, is gifted in ministry and leadership and fantastic to work alongside, and would totally leg drop me if I dared refer to her as anything like hott from the pulpit.

But that's not really why I'm here. I feel 'led by the Spirit' (If the G-Card is the right bower in a game of 500 – something else Christians like – then that's like the Joker) to question whether or not you really are saved. Didn't you know that Christians, if they are going to acknowledge the pagan festival of Easter at all, must only eat hollow chocolate eggs, because they represent the empty tomb. Any creme filled egg, Cadbury or otherwise is an abomination unto the Lord. Remember the height from which you have fallen, repent and do the things you did at first or your lampstand is history!!!!!!!!!!!
In Christian love
or should I say, bless your heart.

Commenting on a old post because this one really gets to me. I think it's kinda rude for men to talk about how "hott" their wives/girlfriends to other women. My husband tells me all the time in private, and makes no secret of how much he adores me without having to pretty much brag about how well he's done. Most pastors I've heard say that have had those perfect, pretty blonde wives and if you're already thinking "So maybe I'm not as pretty as her, but looks aren't that important" they shoot down that idea quick-smart.

Ugh, count me in with the other posters who dislike this (there may not be too many of us, but we're here!).

Honestly, I can't stand when a pastor brags about his "hott" wife. However good the intention might be, I've always been disturbed by how shallow and demeaning it comes across.

Back when I used to go to church, one of the most uncomfortable sermons I sat through was when the pastor called up his wife from the audience, sat her down on a stool next to him in front of the whole congregation, and proceeded to preach about how hott she was, how he married up, how great and godly their marriage was, and the whole time just kept on talking about her as if she wasn't even there. You could tell that she was obviously uncomfortable with this, but the pastor didn't even seem to notice because he was too focused on delivering his message. It was…upsetting.

Another thing: at that same church, women aren't allowed to be in positions of higher leadership and men are supposed to be the absolute head of household, which only makes it even more humiliating when men brag about "marrying up". Really? You married someone much more qualified than you but she has to submit to you completely simply because she's female? Oh, you say she went through seminary and knows her Bible better than anyone in the church but her husband teaches the class because he's a man? Okay then…

Really, if you're going to brag about your spouse, how about, "I married someone equal to me so we are both close and yet complete each other", or "This is a person who I can respect and admire". Not, "this woman is physically attractive" or "this woman deserves much better than me".

/hurt ex-fundamentalist feminist rant, sorry.

So, can i just be the one to say that this is objectification of your wife. I mean, sure you probably think your wife is beautiful, you married her. But, not everyone there needs to be thinking about how hot your wife is. You should a) start telling her in private and b) find new adjectives.

She is way more than just hot, she is probably smart, funny, and patient (especially if she's being publicly called hot on a weekly basis). So, dear fellow pastors, I will never talk about how hot my husband is from the pulpit and you shouldn't either. It's about respect.

I think it's because of the culture. A lot of guys at my church fall into patterns where they try to earn brownie points by saying nice things about their wife. You know, since they left the toilet seat up earlier that day they better try to smooth things out later. I know several ladies that cause this. If they are mentioned as a wife, without the "hott", then they'll take offense to it. It's like their philosophy is "if it's not an outright compliment it must be an insult."

Maybe that's just my perspective. Being single makes it akward when your 6'3", 250 pound football playing friend marries someone, then immediately starts playing the butt kissing game. Hey, you're married already! Staying out 2 minutes past your kerfew once every 6 months shouldn't be wrecking your relationship!

I'm so surprised that from what i can tell so far no-one has made the lady gaga parody you mention at the start of the post! I check Christian video sites occasionally for it (research for my funny christian videos site). There's already a christian parody of I kissed a girl by katy parry so i'm surprised we still don't have lady gaga parodies going on

My sister once bought me a large box of Cadbury creme eggs right after Easter (enough to last me for months); I got rather sick after trying to eat too many before the expiration date….

I want to meet the pastor who thinks his wife is ugly. If so, why the heck did he marry her?! What guy marries a woman he doesn’t think is hotter than HOTT!

Yes! I visited a church twice, a very, very small church that was more like a glorified small group complete with transparency- projected worship songs.

Both Sundays he described how hot she was and made sexual grunting noises after each proclamation, such as”Mmmpf!! Mmm. Mmm.”. I am NOT making this up and I did NOT make it toa 3rd visit.

My shout-out goes out to Pastor Bob in Raleigh, NC!

Yes! I work at a church and I was talking to my boss’s wife when he randomly walked up and said, “doesn’t she look hott?!” Well, pastor, thanks for then forcing me to compliment your wife and feel a little creepy all at the same time! It’s not an every day thing for me to go up to other women tell them how hott I think they are, but hey, why not start at church…with the pastor’s wife?!

Speaking on behalf of every SCL fan, we'd really like to see a picture of your hott-ness better half, Jenny. Please. Sharing is carring. (Yes, I still occasionally talk like I'm in the second grade)

Oh, you forgot to mention the phrase pastors practically have a trademark on: "I've got the looks and she's got the brains, ha ha." For some pastors, it's the only way they know how to be sarcasticaly funny…bless their heart.

I tell people my wife is hot because she is. I tell people Jesus loves them because He does. Truth is truth.

Well I'll take a pastor who just comments on how hott his wife is over how AMAZING his sex life is. Which mine does, frequently. Sometimes it's subtle like singing an old 70's song about sex, but others he just does some weird sex dance toward his wife and talks about how good she is?

[...] I got the impression that Uriah wasn’t anyone very special, just an infantry grunt that had a hott wife and got caught up in the king’s wanton desires. Then today we read 2 Samuel 23, where it [...]

i hear it ALL the time….from my husband….he's a pastor

I think sometimes pastors do this to give an impression of faithfulness to their wives. There are so many stories about pastors being unfaithful I think they sometimes feel they have to make every effort they can to make sure everyone knows they love their wife and are attracted to her.

Another reason might be they are expected to show an example of the perfect, happily married, totally in love Christian couple.

Hilarious, as usual. And you're right – this is kind of annoying. I don't know about you ugly dudes, but I am just as hot as my wife. Maybe hotter… Wait, no, that's not right. Just as hot. Yup, JUST as hot.

Btw, what's with the two T's?

At Student Life Camp just after I graduated high school, the speaker repeatedly referred to the "milk and honey" under his wife's tongue. Occasionally he would stick his tongue out like he was making out with an imaginary wife. Oh, the psychological trauma…

Personally I think it's sleazy. That's probably because the Pastor that I know who did that would also stare/talk at his wife's chest when he brought her before the congregation. She also took this flattery to mean that as long as your nipples and belly button are covered you're being modest. It was sick and made us all uncomfortable. I think a lot of them are doing it for soft core shock value. Pastors are typically nerds and THAT'S OKAY! We love you anyways. So stop shopping at buckle in an attempt to look hip, lose the cool-guy haircut, and for the love of Liza please STOP TALKING ABOUT YOUR SMOKING HOTTTTTT WIFE!
