No big deal. It's as good a direction as any.

} The demonstration at the Paris Cinema against the Christian
} attempts to censor `The Last Temptation of Christ' is at
} 6pm on Friday, Sept. 2 (not 8:00 as previously reported).

Yes. Let's be there. I've been *very* busy with personal business (I'm
being installed as Worshipful Master of a Masonic Lodge next week --
honest! I have witnesses!) Anyway, I don't know when I'll be able to
get to Sheehan's, but I'm sure gonna try!

I'd feel safer in a crowd like that if there was more that one `priest',
so does anyone else want to go the costume route? We can pick a time to
go shopping. (Why does social action always end up costing money?)

Other people should make signs, both FOR and AGAINST, and also (I
suppose) AMBIGUOUS, like "Last Temptation Encourages Christianity!" or
"Films Affect Society"

Also, as long as we'll be out in public, among very excitable, gullible
fanatics, can some rant-artist among us produce some Bob-spattered pro-
and anti-paganda to further Church ends? I have copies of the PUBLIC
SERVICE MESSAGE that Stang wrote. Who else will produce handouts?

Where is the Paris Cinema? Where shall we assemble beforehand?
Afterwards? Is the film showing there, or is this just a rally?

} The rally has been called by groups called `Inflamed Fruit'
} and `Xerox Artists for Social Responsibility' (interesting...)
^ ^ ^ ^
Do they intend to X-ASR-bate the situation?

} JUST SAY NO TO TEH CHRSITIAN THOUGHT POLICE!

`Teh' Christians are the scariest kind!
