But on the plus side she's finally joined some elite company that the BBC has censured. Unfortunately this is more about the BBC being a bunch of politically correct asshats than her singing about Jesus.
They're going to ban them all?
Is "God Save the Queen" now politically incorrect? How is the Beeb going to steer around that reef?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make His way home
If God had a face
What would it look like?
Get all three, well at lest two, of the Abrahamic religions all in a tizzy.
There are an awful lot of songs with the word "Jesus in them.

You miss the point.
See, if she had written, " I wish he was Mohamed, he would get on his flying carpet and blah blah ", remembering mohamed can't be a girl.

Oh no. Mocking Jesus will still be allowed. Loving Jesus is what's offensive.

It's not. It's Joan Osborne.

That's going to be hard, considering Anglican Christianity is the state religion of England.
Funny the interpretation this is getting on this board, because reading the story the lyric change seems to be about not offending Christians. I guess you can twist anything to suit your views.
Right you are Andy. It appears, at least from the article, that it was a concern about bring blasphemous, thus offending Christians. It appears to have offended the easily offended instead.
