Christianity in a Positive Light?
Now That’s Offensive
Bruce Weber reviewed some of the outré offerings at the NYC Fringe Festival,
and one show offended his sensibilities so much he walked out. Was it “Daddy
Kathryn,” “a comedy about a gay son's wacky relationship with his newly outed
transvestite father?” No. It was “Discordant Duets,” the one avowedly
pro-Christian work in the festival. (Weber admitted the “born-again crowd” might
like the “simple-minded drama.”)

(Don’t) Get Religion
Laurie Goodstein is disturbed by Christians looking for converts in the
Muslim world: “Evangelicals have always believed that all other religions are
wrong, but what is notable now is the vituperation.” Plus, the region of Israel
that Ariel Sharon “calls” Judea and Samaria.
