What's the point of this thread, exactly?

Drawing the predictable negative response from you.

[X] Done.

Well, ignoring all the in-fighting, veiled (and not so veiled) sarcasm that goes on, on this board, I got to learn something new!! Does that count!!:)

Just returned from Abravanel Hall in Salt Lake City, where Keith Lockhart and the Utah Symphony performed Leonard Bernstein's complex, interesting Mass. Bernstein's daughter Jamie was there, and she and Maestro Lockhart (who is stepping down after eleven years as music director) and the stage director, Michael Scarola, offered some interesting remarks about the work in a side lecture room before the performance.

Anyway . . . There in the bass section of the Symphony Chorus, fourth from the right on the front row, was none other than the evil and vicious LOAP.

You realize that Lenny Bernstein was a bi-sexual, apparently-faithless, pot-smoking Communist, right?

Yup.

And I loved Tom Wolfe's Radical Chic and Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers.

[_JohnStuartMill]

Fair enough.

Who cares about Leonard Bernstein's personal habits. The important concern is that LOaP confess that he sang Church Latin in a musical Mass, when he has his next Bishop's interview. I suspect his Bishop will be understanding, especially if he mentions that it had Bishop. Peterson's approval.

This story may or may not be true.

The ambiguity I add by so saying makes it even more comical.

Dona nobis pacem!

I think it's pretty clear, Scratch. The mopologetic enterprise is infiltrating all levels of life in Utah; civics, religion, and especially now, the arts. Even the arts not dominated by Mormons already.

One step closer.

Naah,
You've gotta prove this to us.
How do we know you didn't mix him up with an usher or a bouncer?
Got any photos?

Well, LoaP, I think you'll be shocked to learn that Dr. Peterson cheerfully endorsed Church censorship of the arts---especially the dramatic and narrative arts. Consequently, I think it's safe to say that the Church won't be cornering the market on art anytime soon.
