For those of you completely divorced from pop culture, the creators of South Park are opening “The Book of Mormon: The Musical” on Broadway this month.
Don’t know if you saw this, but earlier this week the Church gave an official response:
“The production may attempt to entertain audiences for an evening, but the Book of Mormon is a volume of scripture that will change people’s lives forever by bringing them closer to Christ.”
– That’s it. Total class. Makes me proud.
Now we just need to keep repeating to ourselves “There’s no such thing as bad publicity” (P.T. Barnum)
It couldn’t do any more damage than the well intended, yet horrible Book of Mormon movie that came out back in 2003! Maybe it will prompt people to check out the original source after seeing it.
Yep, nothing but class. But i still vote we egg their house 🙂
