You can’t see the forest for the trees. The Mohamed show was hilarious and ripe for a Broadway show. Is it there? The Scientology show was too. Is it there? Your liberal views taint your viewpoint.

And the fact that you know nothing at all about the musical and what it's about taints yours.

Not one comment on this thread has any understanding of what the play's point is. At all.

It's actually deeper than mere mocking, but don't let that stop you all from shallowly bashing both Mormons, and the play. You're shooting at each other, and missing them, completely.

I think it's terrific. I wish it wasn't all the way across the country, I'd have seen it. As such, I have to settle for the fabulous soundtrack. A little vulgar, as Matt and Trey can be, but terrific nonetheless. They are very very talented and this; songwriting, music, and musicals, is their best work yet.

You can too: RollingStone Book of Mormon on Broadway Soundtrack

But that's just my two cents. :~) As for your challenge... Seeing as how they're the writers and comedians that have all the fans and win all the awards, I think I'll let them decide when and what to write that's funny. They're better at it.

Video - Breaking News Videos from CNN.com - 'The Book of Mormon' wins big at Tonys. It's sold out till Christmas. We checked.

You presume a lot. There is this thing call the “internet”. It lets you read all about things that you haven’t seen. It’s like the library only it’s right in your home on a little box called a “computer”. When you understand that, we can go into a site called “Wikipedia”.

Sorry, I don’t like when conservatives become targets and YOU may like crass entertainment at the expense of religion, I don’t.
