But then you had to go and ruin it.

:)

it should be easy: just show us Jesus' wife!

Baigent,Leigh and Lincoln suggest Jesus to have married Mary Magdeline. They speculate Magdeline and possibly their son, escaped,after the crucifiction, to Gaul, taking with her the Holy Grail - ( or Blood Royal) and to have conceivably continued with Jesu's bloodline for a further 400 years.

I'm a complete atheist with no loyalty to any religion, but do feel this play is something of a smack in the face to christians who might protest quoting there is no mention of a homosexual Jesus in the bible - therefore he was straight.

Jesus was / is many things to many people, and assume the homosexual fraternity see no wrong in choosing Christ as their savior too. In religion anything is acceptable - but this isn't exactly the criteria of the play. Maybe it's more a play suitable only for open minded, and / or homosexual audiences?

If you think abortion is wrong, DON'T GET ONE!!!

I was involved with IVCF my freshman year of college, and quit after I got sick of them trying to tell me I wasn't a good enough christian (I liked Pink Floyd better than Amy Grant, I thought that it was okay to talk about religion with others, but not okay to try to convert them, I didn't care if people were gay or had abortions). Anyways, at one meeting, one of the members asked people to write letters to our congressional reps to ask them to ban a movie that was allegedly being mad that portrayed "Our Lord and Savior as a drunk pervert, who engages in homosexuality" etc., etc. They all got mad at me when I said that government censorship was wrong and it would be more appropriate to direct the mail toward the studio that was allegedly making the movie and ask them not to make the movie. They all looked at me like I was speaking french or something.

20 years later, I'm looking at the Snopes website and I see that the whole thing back then was an urban legend. This story looks real, because there are sources listed and all, but I wonder.

to read the script and/or see the play, and if they could get over their damn hangups about people's sex lives, they'd see what a great - and beautiful - play it is. I love Terrence McNally anyway, but "Corpus Christi" is one of my favorites.

I remember in the late 90s having an argument with my uber-right-wing (one of literally thousands I had with the guy--he was seriously certifiable) because he was claiming the play shouldn't be allowed at all. I think it was making waves in California at the time, but I'm sketchy on the details.

They're always up to the same old tricks, always trying to contol our lives. It sure gets old.
