Why did people overreact with the song? Wasn't it for anti-racism reasons?

it was for racist reasons, mid 80s, the general public did not want to see there whitest trollop frollicking around with a black man.
Also, theres a heavy inferring in the video that Jesus is black, another obvious possibility that ignorant white people cannot get their mind's arouns.
then, there the blasphemy of a woman seducing a priest, and the suggestion that she finds grace by banging jesus.
I would even suspect, some of those religious zeolots would go as far as to suggest an insestious tone in that Ms. Ciccone goes by the name "Madonna" .
all in all though, best video she ever did, with "What it feels like for a girl" a close second.

It wasn't the song that caused an uproar,it was the video.It portrayed Madonna in a field with burning crosses,then it showed her being intimate with a man of the cloth.

It was because the actor who played Jesus was Black and the church was not happy with the image of Jesus being portrayed as a black man..
I,m not saying that they are right,Just saying the reason for all the fuss over a pop video..
