The piece surveys Hollywood gospel films Godspell and Superstar as modern distortions of Jesus, contrasted with scholarly defenses of Jesus as reformer rather than violent revolutionary. It cites Richard Blake, William Stringfellow, Ursula Niebuhr, and John T. Pawlikowski, analyzing interpretations of Christ’s message and the risks of sensationalist depictions.

The piece highlights interrelatedness over dichotomy and the bidirectional unity of monotheism and polytheism in Sioux belief.
