He started getting into Christianity when his kid with Anna Farris was born premature and needed a lot of care. Which is entirely understandable and a lot of people turn to various forms of spirituality in times of distress, but he completely swan-dived into the trash compactor.

The fact that he got hooked by a Jews for Jesus guy really does indicate he was open for literally any cult that came by to scoop him up Like he was this close to becoming a Scientologist or a Raelian or a Black Hebrew Israelite

Cults are great at recruitment. A number specifically target celebrities for clout.

I think we’d be less surprised if he’s gone Scientologist or Jehovah Witness. But it’s worth noting that non-Jews in general are Ignorant As Fuck about Judaism so they wouldn’t even clock the J4J is a Christian Cult. Especially in our prosperity gospel, charismatic preacher era.

Tbh, I didn’t even know Falun Gong was a cult until my friend mentioned it when we were passing an ad for one of their performances. My ignorant ass thought it was a performance group.

I've actually seen the show, it seems normal for most of it and then they hit you with the one dance number about how the Chinese Communist government is a totalitarian dictatorship bent on keeping the world from knowing the truth of Falun Gong

Did the version you saw have the song about how evolution is a Satanic lie too? (My mom gave us tickets for a performance a while back, not knowing exactly what it was.)

It was ... something else. I'm more bemused by it than anything else. Like, there are not many countries an anti-evolution message would find a less receptive audience than here, but also, Swedes are *terrified* of making a fuss and confrontations.

So brief polite applause and people in the audience looking at each other with an air of "what did we just see/hear?"
