is no longer as obscene in its hatred of the Jewish people as it so recently was? Yes, indeed, it's a fine thing, the Passion Play. Something to be proud of, with its long tradition finally making it into the modern world. How proud the Germans must be to have put aside the ideas that led to the Holocaust.

I'm so glad you were able to see it in its original obscene, hateful form. Yes, indeed.
