Attack of the Theocrats!
I only noticed now the thread is online with several reactions already - thank you for these! I'm driving to work in several hours so please accept some terseness: the second class was last Friday, we talked the controvesy and watched the short movie - it came out really nice on screen via projector. I had wanted to show the film to the headmaster but he after some amusement excused himself for dinner (which really was due)...Filming was discontinued apart from two students who borrowed the camera home. During the weekend the word "satanism" was dropped on me in the pub in connection to this affair, and though it was uttered in jovial manner, it made me cringe. I'll respond to comments tomorrow - some interesting new angles were opened to me thanks!
