I’m Jewish and have been told very angrily that I killed Jesus more than once. It’s fun.

    Nice. I’ve never heard any of the music from Jesus Christ Superstar. I like it. I’ll have to listen to the rest now.

      It’s unironically one of my favorite musicals. It’s surprisingly not very religious, considering its subject matter.

          It walks a very fine line that appeals to both Christians and non-Christians. It’s more about the drama and struggle around Jesus, without ever directly addressing his divinity or lack thereof. Judas has all the banger songs, though. He’s the protagonist, really.

            Honestly, I wasn’t even concerned about the plot. If it has a good plot, that’s also good. I just liked the song and wanted to hear more.
