And it's absolutely hilarious and very well done, too.

I don't doubt it. I love South Park. Sometimes it makes me uncomfortable, but comedy sometimes does that. Their representations of both Mormonism and Scientology--the ones I have seen anyway--have been fabulous. I was inclined to agree with a reviewer who concluded that Stone & Parker have an underlying respect for the value of religion in society, something one does not get from Otterson's very limited understanding of what they do.

I agree with Brother Otterson that we should abstain from playing any exorbitant amount on Broadway seating prices. If those Ticketrons should approach you, just say no.

Wait until the off Broadway touring company comes to a city near you. I know it will be a sellout for each night in Salt Lake City. If you purchase your ticket in zone A of the Capitol Theater, you might wind up sitting next to Brother Otterson or even Will Schryver.

One would need both a ticket and hope.
