Over the years, I have been impressed with how the back streets of our land as much as
Main Street or Wall Street have shaped the culture of our land. A recent television special
devoted much of its energy to reflecting on the influence of Saturday Night Live
on our culture. I imagine that given most clergy schedules they have either skipped this
resource for the sake of Sunday morning freshness or tried to grasp at its ethos
through reruns and DVDs. However, who can disagree that this show has had influence
from boardrooms to backrooms of power?
