The same stance was taken when Jesus Christ Superstar came out and I never could understand the objections to that either. The times have surely changed. However, I do believe that you have grown in your perception of things around you in all these years. I wonder if you would have felt the same if you had seen it then? Me too...

Two thoughts: 1) I believe that would be about 10 years after my experience, which would be an entirely different situation. In 1973, the whole hippie thing was still an issue with the "establishment". In the 80's, not so much. 2) Catholics were off limits for us too. That's an overstatement because I knew people who were Catholic, but that was like knowing someone who was German. I didn't have any context and they weren't considered to be of the same faith. In fact, I still hear Christians refer to Catholics as something other than Christian. I'm sure there are many Catholics who are not serious about following Jesus, but there are likely just as many Protestants who are the same way. One of these days, I'll explore that in a blog... but not today :) Thanks mjh… Two thoughts: 1) I believe that would be about 10 years after my experience, which would be an entirely different situation.

Because my Catholic high school (a seminary, no less) put on Godspell as a production. And pretty much all of us saw it as a movie before that. That’s interesting.
