I thought it was interesting that Justin Bieber, when he accepted his VMA,  thanked God and Jesus, with an emphasis on Jesus. He made a pretty bold statement; even my daughter remarked about it.

Of course, like every year, there were stories resulting from the VMAs. Well, Justin’s acceptance speech was among them.

Here’s what folks are saying:

Fox News: God and Jesus become hot trending topic thanks to the VMAs.   

ChristianPost: Justin Bieber delights Twitter fans by making God and Jesus trending

VillageVoice.com: God and Jesus did really well as the VMAs.

By the way, quite a few recording artists thanked the Lord during their acceptance speeches at the VMAs.

I’ve always found that so ironic, given the nature of some of their music lyrics and videos, at least for some of them. But, I don’t  judge them. They are free to thank whomever they want.
