“Our role as artist is more controversial now because there are those, claiming the absolute authority of religion, who detest much of our work as much as they detest most of our politics. Instead of rationally debating subjects like abortion or gay rights, they condemn as immoral those who favor choice and tolerance. They disown their own dark side and magnify everyone else's until, at the extreme, doctors are murdered in the name of protecting life. I wonder, who is this God they invoke, who is so petty and mean? Is God really against gun control and food stamps for poor children?” MeanChildrenArtistChoicesNamesSidesDarkPoorWonderRolesRightsSubjectsGayAuthorityGunDoctorsAbsolutesExtremesFavorsToleranceAbortionGun ControlStampsImmoralPettyControversialDark SideGay RightsInvokeDetestFood StampsPoor Children Author:Barbra Streisand
