Falwell and The Simpsons
Erik Guzman May 18th, 2007
Jerry Falwell and The Simpsons. Q: What's the common denominator? A: Mark Pinsky.
Mark is the author of A Jew Among Evangelicals: A Guide for the Perplexed. He also covers religion for the Orlando Sentinel, specializing in evangelical Christianity in the Sunbelt. Mark joins us in studio to bring his unique perspective on the life of Jerry Falwell.
Mr. Pinsky is also the author of the bestselling book, The Gospel According to The Simpsons: The Spiritual Life of America's Most Animated Family.
We talk to him about the updated version of that book that also covers religious themes in other animated television shows such as South Park, Futurama, King of the Hill and Family Guy.
