We make changes, we do superhero things, but we wonder about the meaning of it all, if we were working from right motives, right intent, etc, and don't actually celebrate the good things we do.<BR/><BR/>About Lex Luthor... that is interesting - who plays him?Mark Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06871096746243771489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-57242624256914884632007-02-15T06:03:00.000-05:002007-02-15T06:03:00.000-05:00Great!

The Methodists get a psychologically healthy superhero in Superman, and we have the dark psychotic Batman, who stopped going to the Episcopal church a long time ago anyway. I notice that Lex Luthor is also a lapsed Episcopalian. How nice.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps someone could slip some money under the table and get Marvel Comics to state that Captain America goes to an <B>Episcopal</B> church every Sunday? Of course, the conservative Captain America would probably end up a reasserter.
