An Inclusive Litany

8/8/93

Organizers of "religion week" at George Washington University are reported to be a little mystified and disappointed that the event was so sparsely attended. Only twelve students showed up for one night's interreligious symposium on "responses to homosexuality." Another event was a musical theater adaptation of the Garden of Eden, "Guarding the Garden: An Eco-Feminist Portrayal of Genesis." The week also featured an environmental seder, and concluded with a screening of the Monty Python film, The Life of Brian, which many Christians regard as blasphemous. The week was sponsored by various groups, including Hillel, the Ecumenical Christian Ministry, Students for Environmental Action, Wimmin's Issues Now, and the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Alliance.
