Personal Jesus

Has very good story lines and explores important societal issues but what's with the jokes about religion and God? Why can't shows just leave religion out of it instead of bashing it and making fun of things they don't understand.

For everyone giving this a bad review, you're entitled to your own opinion, however you cannot deny that these are real issues facing the world today. This is not political. This is real life. Everyday people go through these things - struggling with religion, what is right, what is wrong, wondering why their loved one was so unjustly taken from this world. This episode was written just right that is showed these struggles without condemning someones beliefs. These are real life events and this episode brought them tastefully to life. This made my respect and admiration for the show overall, go sky high. For anyone who has ever lost a loved one too soon, I'm sorry, no one should ever have to go through that. I hope this episode let you feel seen.

That's all I have to say about it. Just watch it! You will not regret.

This is one of a just a few episodes when April presents her views on God as a devout Christian in a way that I respect. She speaks of God and the Bible and METAPHORS to the young man who tried to cut his hand off because he was literally interpreting the Bible. (This isn't the same April who told the examiners during her boards that she broke her promise to Jesus by having sex). Then DeLuca's sister - the orgasm researcher - tries to explain to the same young man about the biology behind pleasure and then the argument that if God made the body then He also made a body that is supposed to want and need pleasure (I'm always surprised that she has a difficult time getting patients - and Arizona Robbins of all people - to understand and/or act on the fact that pleasurable stimulation during labor is beneficial - people figured that out a LONG time ago). In short, this is a very good episode with several good and important plots lines (including Jo and Paul Stadler's) and those that are put off by "Jesus" in the title should definitely watch this one. Another episode that shows April articulating her personal Christian beliefs in a similar way is when Catherine Avery shows up with the post-nuptial agreement and interrogates April about her believes affecting The Harper Avery Foundation.

The writer continues to provoke the feelings of religious people and believers. The dilemma of evil? The oldest dilemma in history and the answer to my dear Shonda
