Faith and Fashion, exposed!



Can a fashion model be a Proverbs 31 woman? The people at Paradox say she can.

A story in the New York Observer examines the models, photographers, agents and fashion designers--male and female-- who are members of Paradox, the New York hub of Models for Christ. Besides helping each other survive the debauchery prevalent in the industry, the members discuss struggles with eating disorders and self-esteem issues.

The Idol Chatter Blog at Beliefnet.com points out that a group of male Latter-Day Saint missionaries who've just returned to the U.S. "have turned the Models for Christ concept on its head a bit by releasing a controversial calendar called 'Men on a Mission.'"

Could the hunky Mormon Men on a Mission whip the Models for Christ in a pickup basketball game? Would Cowboys for Christ clobber all of them? Stay tuned.

From now on, religious figureheads should just write down any speeches or sermons they have planned to be preached by a Model for Christ in their stead. Shirtless, of course. I think church attendance would skyrocket. Whatever it takes, right?

If you take communion and throw it up afterwards, does that count?
