Is it amazing how seriously religious fundamentalists take the theatre?

Based more on experience than reason, I've always thought of theatre as
a broadly leftwing interest. It isn't an arena in which you'd expect
the support, participation or understanding of religious
fundamentalists. But it's fair to say it's not an art form that
transfixes the mainstream, either. Even the most fervent theatre-lover
would concede that it's a bit taxing, a bit special-interest, and most
people, whatever they put on their internet dating profile, would
rather watch telly. That being the case, you'd think they'd just ignore
it, the God-botherers, the way I'd ignore a can't-fill-the-stadium
faith healer.
