NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--NBC is sending a mixed message to Christians across the nation by planning to show an offensive Madonna concert in its entirety while requiring biblical messages to be edited out of the popular “VeggieTales” children’s show, Brent Bozell, president of the Parents Television Council, said in a letter to an NBC executive Sept. 20.

A centerpiece of Madonna’s global “Confessions” tour has been a stunt where she performs a song called “Live to Tell” while suspended on a giant cross wearing a crown of thorns, and NBC plans to air the concert in November. The mock crucifixion has drawn protests from church leaders in Rome and Moscow, according to Reuters.
