Pleasantly surprised, I walked away with a few life lessons. The main lesson being, believe what you want to believe and don't worry about what others think about it. Sure, mormonism sounds crazy to me, but it is a religion that makes lots of people happy. And that's really all that matters, right?
I mean, the beginnings of Christianity are just as absurd. And who am I to say that it isn't completely laughable to you. If you look at it from the view of an outsider, you can pick each religion apart and make any follower appear to be insane for believing. I'm not trying to start a religious discussion or offend anyone here. I'm just stating that I walked away from this musical with a feeling that we should all respect each others choice to worship the way they choose + laugh at ourselves every once and a while.
Happy Friday!
I LOVED it too, so glad you enjoyed. Dan and I thought it was so well done and hysterical! And so funny the point of this post, because at some point we talked and I was like, "this seems crazy, I'm not sure how anyone believes it?!" And Dan was like, "if you hadn't been brought up Christian, think about some of the crazy stories of Jesus and how weird they would sound." So true!
ReplyDeleteI agree, depending where you stand, most religions seem strange. I think the world will be a much better place if we all let each other believe what we want to. Each to his own right?
ReplyDeletei always wanted to see this! :) was it really funny? I feel like all the religious south park episodes are always the funniest and they seriously poke fun at every religion - no discrimination there. :)
