    *Anyone* who is pretending to be what they are not are called hypocrites and the root word for acting is hypocratic,(sp.)

    I have seen a wonderful play called, "Heaven's Gates and Hell's Flames." I know the Lord uses this play to help people get saved. Is it the best way to witness, probably not?. No where in Scripture do we see the apostles using drama to witness.

    Acting, clowning, ect can't be lies. There's no serious intent to deceive. If I go to see Macbeth, I won't run out to the lobby to call 911 and report a murder.

    If something that isn't strictly true but isn't meant to be taken as strictly true is a lie, then the parables in Scripture are lies. :eek: That can't be.

    On another note...
