   Yep. Michael Jackson's talent deserved a LOT better than that!

   I'd do them where they'll be well received, which definitely includes   
   church, but it include other venues too.

   More like how 'tolerant' people are to having their Sacred traditions   
   Defecated upon by Unbelievers!   
      
   When I attended Chicago Public Schools elementary school, we had Nativity   
   plays and sang Christmas carols and hymns, and the tradition at the second   
   elementary school I attended after we moved, was when school let out for the   
   Christmas holidays, the 8th grade girls chorus would  assemble on the   
   balcony-like walkway between the 2 doors of the Principal's office and sang   
   "O Holy Night" over and over as all the students filed out the main doors   
   directly beneath them...it was Awesome...and NOBODY complained!   
      
   Imagine going to Saudi Arabia and complaining about their Islamic traditions   
   and demanding that they be stopped!!!   
   Good way to end up getting beheaded in front of a local mosque!
