(PLAY SCHEDULED FOR MONDAY DEC. 13)
Read with caution. This deeply offends our Catholic sense of propriety:
According to Columbia University's art blog, they are hosting a blasphemous play on December 13 called XMAS in which the "Virgin Mary" begs for explicit sins of impurity.
For example, a student wrote this about XMAS in the Columbia Spectator:
"This includes a…Virgin Mary desperate for sex (who, by the way, is also on birth control "just in case")."
This is a most egregious offense against the spotless purity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Please:
Send your instant e-protest message
Here's more, according to that same student:
"The show's shock-inducing brand of comedy might be a problem for the deeply religious. But for the rest battling pre-finals depression, this show might actually be the perfect replacement for Prozac."
I know you would be very upset with this unspeakable insult to our Catholic faith being played at an Ivy League University, one of the most prestigious institutions of higher education in America.
Take Action
- Send your instant e-protest message NOW to President of Columbia University, Lee Bollinger.

This blasphemy against Our Lady at Columbia University highlights the importance of doing acts of reparation. So please make sure to say your Rosary of Reparation at 8PM on Monday, December 13th.
I have been in touch with Columbia University but cannot give them any specific info as I cannot find any one their website. When is this play going to be performed?

None of the protest links are working. Any reason we know of that is causing this?
