? Chelsea and James were portraying themselves as strong christians>? C and J were constantly reading the Bible and quoting verses that spoke out against promiscuity? Nope, Nat did tho. then proceeds to be immodest regardless of previous reading outloud Not to be. I have no problem with a normal Nat. It is the religiously hypocritical Nat, using it somehow as gameplay that bugs me. Think she's playing her heart out this week. *************************** i forsee a "Nat and Only men" house. I feel she knows how to manipulate guys and is just playing games with Sheila/ Sharon this week. watching her play this week is cringeworthy as it is bringing back memories of Erika and her need to be attached to the guys thinking that she would be brought to the end..for sure.

If I was in Natalie's position, I'd much rather spend my time with Ryan and Adam than with Sheila and Sharon, not because they're men, but because they have more fun.

You sure picked the right word Sun. Cringeworthy is right.

Nope...Chelsia most definately did not portray herself to be a strong Christian. She did, however, state many times that she didn't want to embarass her dad by showing herself nude or having sex on TV. Christians get naked, too. Yep..they do. And, Merry...you are so right. Given the choice, I'd rather spend time with any of the boys. More Hide and Seek, please.

Naked or clothed, Natalie still annoys the crap out of me. I can't stand the girl, and her religious babble just makes it worse. I tried to watch the show tonight and had to cut it off because of her. I find the use of "Team Christ" disgusting, especially coming from those people in the context of a tv game show. Wonder how much "Team Christ" plans to donate to charity in His name when He helps them win?

Well put, Pamy. Ryan created the name "Team Christ" for that group b/c they all believe in Him. I don't find anything appalling or outrageous about that. I do, however, wish Natalie would have kept it more to herself, but only b/c it seems like everything she says or does in the game is being judged based on that. She's still a contender in the BB house just like the rest of them and is playing the game, quite well, IMO. With the exception of James, all of the remaining houseguests have expressed their faith. Is Natalie held to a different standard b/c she is more open about it? I gotta say, I am glad none of them are prudes b/c how entertaining would that be??? JMO.

Team Christ is the most disrespectful name I've ever heard when you put it together with any of these HG's. Naked christians unite! lol

I don't judge Natalie's faith, which isn't really something I could know or see anyway, just her actions and statements in the house, including HER judgemental statements about others.

When someone brings their religion into the house, and into the game, and then starts pointing out the "good" people vs the "bad" people, then, yeah, I'll comment on it. When someone says that she should win because god wants her to (or someone should get evicted for the same reason), then yeah, I'll comment on it. I don't particularly care if someone is religious or not. I do, however, care if someone adopts a holier than thou attitude. And I care even more if that person's actions do not align even slightly with what is *perceived* to be a "good Christian". I'm not a believer, but I do recall the Golden Rule from when I was forced to attend Sunday school. And I have yet to see a self-proclaimed Bible thumping "good person" follow that rule.

Costacat- I could not agree with you more. This is the problem I had with the twins but at least they kept their clothes on. You are so right CC.

IMHO, every single one of them this year act judgmental, better/smarter than the other, hypocritical, etc. (whether it be about religion or education). They all also think they have the best strategy or have this game figured out. I always find it funny b/c they really have no idea what's going to happen from one week to the next. Everyone of them have faults and annoying traits, but I want to see two people at the end who have played the best game. For me that's Natalie and James (even know he was evicted once).

Many also seem to have a pretty intense sense of entitlement. Natalie doesn't. Nor does Adam...but Sheila, James, Josh and even Sharon certainly do. Also...some pretty strong double standards going on, for sure.

I find the treatment of women on this show far more disturbing than Nat's hypocritical and naive daydreams.

While it is true they all have been judgemental, it is Natalie who has used religion as a weapon again and again while being judgemental.imo

To each her own, I guess. Personal mistakes or family issues Vs. Religion. Who's to say which is worse? It is what it is.

Natalie's behavior has amazed me tonight. After Josh tried to fool her about eating slop, and thinking he HAD fooled her...what does she do? She goes and reads the rule book. Smart girl!
