- Amazing Graceland
(RELIGION IN THE NEWS, Fall 2002, Vol. 5, No. 3)
(The Leonard E. Greenberg Center for the Study of Religion in Public Life)
... "This year's vigil, which was webcast live on America Online, became the most public expression of the cult of Elvis. Journalists write about the cult as a kind of joke. Here was a pop icon who lived a life of over-the-top contradiction, and the spectacle of the rhinestone-laden decline of his later years invites mockery. Moreover, it is, by the standards of organized religion, a false religion, and when push comes to shove, the news media are still pretty conventional about what constitutes religion. But itıs clear, even from less-than-insightful anniversary coverage, that something more serious is going on. ..."

Elvis, a prodigal son?
(gospelcom.net)
... Anyone digging through the mud of Presley's sad decline can find many signs that he was crying out to God as well as wrestling with his demons ... "If Elvis was a prodigal son, then it seems that he died on the way back to his Father's house," said Beard. "That's tragic. That's a tragic story and it's a story that ought to inspire compassion, not condemnation. ... We all need to be reminded that mercy and grace are still Christian virtues." ...
