Definitely of interest. There are also airchecks of Ethel Waters singing "Eli Eli," not on that compilation. I found this quote: http://www.thejewishweek.com/arts/music/blacks_and_jews_musical_gray_area And there's a Black Sabbath exhibition at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in SF. http://www.thecjm.org/index.php?option=com_ccevents&scope=exbt&task=detail&oid=51 I wonder why they didn't call the album Black Shabbos. It was good enough for these guys: http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20120870,00.html

I think I'll stick with Muhammad Ali for the poetry of self praise and Donna Summer for the unconditional love.

Personally, I revel in existential meaninglessness.

My assumption is that West uses "Christian" in a liberation theology context, and makes certain assumptions about the sociopolitical meaning of "Christian" that is not shared by many Christians of differing political stripes, and therefore is meaningless as a retort to a question about political leanings. I didn't mean to imply that it was hypocritical, but if there was an implicit critique of the smugness of many religious types, that's OK with me.

"I'm a Christian" is a stupid answer to "where are the socialists, where are the communists..." Outside of "what's your religion?" I can't think of any question it wouldn't be a stupid answer to.

Smart guy, but the first comment is a stupid statement from any angle, and the second is a stupid answer to your question.
