Apparently he didn't get the memo that the Sixties are Over.
There seems to be a lot of that going around. Fixated adolescence. Judging from the photo of the fire dancers, it looks like he may not have received the memo that the Stone Age is over either. Never been too keen on "Encounter Group" Catholicism myself. The touchy-feely mafia will try to sneak that stuff in wherever they can. You have to watch them very carefully.
