Once part of the cast of the ultimate movie the Usual Suspects, Stephen Baldwin is now an "Unusual Suspect" the protagonist in his new book with the same name. Salon.com quotes him at a recent live performance of Livin' It -- a made for DVD infomercial aimed at turning misguided teenagers onto Jesus -- saying that if you think you've heard of "Jesus Freaks," just wait cause he's the "first Jesus Psycho."
After reading this article, I'm not sure what caused the feeling of uneasiness to settle in the pit of my impious soul. It could be that he is the cultural advisor to George Bush, but most likely it is that young teens are looking to him for answers... "someone who can only recite six of the Ten Commandments and four of the Twelve Apostles."
These days, Baldwin not only has the ear of young boys who cleave to his fundamentalist reading of the Bible, and whatever skein of celebrity still clings to his Jesus T-shirts. He has been named a cultural advisor to President Bush, a formidable follow-up to his invitation to speak at the Republican National Convention, where he announced proudly from the podium, "I'm here because of my faith."
