" Now just you listen to this. A Chester Houseman has been granted funds to write and choreograph a ballet called 'LEAP FOR LIFE.' It's set in San Francisco. And it's all about men dying of aids, leaping and lounging around half naked what with those leotards and what not they wear. Imagine your tax money going to promote an ungodly lifestyle!
"Hold tight to your seats folks 'cause you ain't heard nothin' yet. Here's a Violet Murphy given public funds to write a play about teenagers and what is supposed to happen when they can't get abortions without parental approval! This so-called play shows teenage girls delivering babies in school bathrooms and trying to flush them down toilets. Or, or, putting them out with the morning trash. Or, listen to this, going to a motel and smothering the baby. What utter hogwash! This isn't Art. This is the devil's propaganda.
" Here's another one that'll curdle your blood if you haven't fainted already. Stay with me, folks, 'cause we've got some phone and fax numbers for you to protest to your congressman or woman. But just listen to this first. A man named Jerry Crest got money to write a novel about a woman on death row in Texas. Seems the woman committed some truly heinous crime in her youth. Some gory thing Crest uses to keep your attention. Anyway, the point is this woman becomes a born-again Christian. She's a model prisoner and even marries the prison preacher. But the author refuses to accept her conversion. Instead, he depicts this woman as pure evil. Shows she's only manipulating everyone to get public sympathy and escape the death penalty.
"Now you folks know where I stand on the death penalty. But even in a fictitious case like this novel, I think the woman should be spared. I think she is a model for the way Christ can work miracles in anyone's life. Even a heinous murderer's. Not only do these works support ungodliness, but they mock true godliness. So here it comes, folks, the numbers you need to contact your congressman or woman and protest the use of your tax money to pay for these unholy, ungodly so-called works of Art! Call now! Raise your voice for Christ and country! Praise the Lord! And just because we lost a 10 year skirmish with the IRS over a very minor (few thousands of dollars) tax question do not think that our Club is in any danger of losing it tax exempt status!!!!!
