Whoops! Typo on my part. As not a few pointed out, the Anglican Church
was running the show at the time (I just finished a midterm on the
Restoration period and the Catholic/Puritan/Anglican squabbles and I
guess I had a brain cramp while typing--sorry).

A typo's a typo's a typo. But where's all this "religious zealotry" and
"prejudice" I'm supposed to be throwing about here? The fact is neither
the Catholic Church OR the Anglican Church would have let a layman help
with a Bible translation.

And the fact is that I DO think it was stupid of the church to look down
their noses at the theater.

You don't have to look at my website just because it's on my signature
file (it was tough for a diehard proselytizer like me, but I left my sig
off this e-mail. Happy?). Sheesh. Take a pill.

PS. I know East of Eden's a movie. What does it have to do with this
issue?
