That’s a given. It doesn’t make her plea any less hollow, though. She has, after all, proven herself abundantly proficient at paying lip service.

We will see how the rest of her sentence progresses. While I do not believe she is a genius or anything, I do think she plays up the dumb aspect of her personality for the sensationality of it all. I’m looking for a cite, but I had heard that Paris and Nikki would do take after take of their show “The Simple Life” or whatever it was called, playing it up such that they would be dumber and dumber. _shrug_

If she learns something and turns her life around, fantastic. But… I’ll believe it when I see it.

If this is a sign of a genuine personality shift then I applaude her. More important than finding God, is for her to find her inner human being. I don’t even expect a major lifestyle change, just some responsibility and respect for those of us that aren’t born wealthy.

[stops to consider what he’s just said, in the context of previous posts.]

Oh, don’t start!

AP says she wants to start a “Paris Playhouse” for sick children to come to. To what purpose, I wonder? And why does it HAVE to have her name on it? If she wants to help sick children, why doesn’t she study to become a pediatric nurse? They’re in short supply, and she contribute her salary back to training even more pediatric nurses.

I’m just sayin’.

Look at the wording…she didn’t say she’s “accepted Jesus Christ as her personal savior”, or she’s following the way of Allah or Jehovah. Many people might say that God has given them a chance without meaning more than to acknowledge–possibly very vaguely–that they are theist.

In other words, just meh.

I think she’s mixed up the order; it’s get addicted to multiple substances, go to rehab a couple of times, do veganism, buddhism, caballa, THEN find god and commit your life pubicly to good works. Stupid celebutante. Going off doing things half-cocked (heh).

In other words, I think this is complete bullshit. This is par for the course for the Borderline Personality that I think Paris is. She needs help, alright, but she isn’t anywhere near ready to get it yet. She’s just trying on piousness today.

And anyway, I don’t know what the big deal is. I found God once. He jumped up, said, “Your turn!” and then turned around, hid his eyes and started counting aloud.

Dude _still_ thinks I’m in Mariana’s Trench.

Damn it, I misread the thread title as “Paris Hilton has been found dead.”

Usually you can find god under a sofa cushion, along with some odd coins and a couple of keys. I lost mine long ago but I think the cleaning lady put him out with the garbage, no chance of me finding him again.

I’ll walk to hell. Can’t afford the plane ticket.
