The cynicism of The Foxhole Manifesto really appealed to me. We live in a world where God is evoked to justify some truly terrible things - terrorism; war; racism; homophobia; greed; power; corruption. As an agnostic Jew - and a proud one at that - I really responded to the narrator's contradictory search for the divine. The way he spews out invective and analogies reminds me of American rapper Sage Francis or the late Bill Hicks. He's articulate AND deranged.
