• Duels/debates (aka, Nat tease)

• If we didn’t already know, which we did, now we would know

• The Cross and the Lynching Tree, by James H. Cone

• James as atheist/agnostic Biblical prophet

• The fragility of power, or, shotgun = virility???

• Tarnation

• For reference: the character Michael is talking about later in the episode is young George and NOT Easter

• Notice

• Heretical Fictions, by Lawrence I Berkove and Joseph Csicsila
