What do you think of this as an idea for a play?

Hi guys. I'm a writer constantly developing new ideas for stories. This is one I came up with last month and am wondering what you think, whether you think I should pursue it? Here goes... It wants to be a Drama in Three Acts, and it tells the story of two theatre owners from the 'burbs. Katie and Andy are their names. They are husband and wife. Katie is a big deal actor who seems to have it all, but when a real estate agent enters her family's life she realizes that what she really wants. What she has yearned for her whole life is being the tempress leader of a big-deal cult on a property in NSW. That's all I got at this stage. I've got my finger on the pulse and am open to suggestions, so go for it. Let me know what you think?

On some level... yes!

I understand the point your making completely, but as a practising Catholic who actually applies critical thinking to the authority of the Vatican (and that is to say I don't agree with everything they come out with) I will choose to overlook your "case in point" as in my view, there's significant evidence supporting Pope Benedict's argument, ie: the Phillipines scientific survey into the matter (making it scientifically true.) The Pope, and Church teachings is a whole other thing here, but since you knew from my earlier posts that I knew something about the R/C medieval cults it was likely that you could have thought that I was someone who was Catholic. I don't know why that's important and I don't want to get into it with you, apart from saying that it's not appropriate to what we've been discussing from the outset. I mean the Vatican has been a positive force for human kind for 2 millenia and they do in fact have their own scientists now. Scientists who have more independence to give voice to their findings than those scientists, say, who came up with the WMDS findings in Iraq. Now I'm ranting, me thinks. I hope it's fair though, what I've said. Nevertheless, the common resolution for instances such as the one we have found ourselves on because of your "case in point", in this Liberal scientific Democaracy is to agree to disagree. Heck, what you've said makes sense on several levels. I certainly don't think of you any less for it. Wait at a minute -- Is that Katie's or Andy's line. Whoa... Now I definitely need to get away from this computer for a while. Peace out, my friend. Australia is the best country in the world.
