Idiot savants
 By now, we're all familiar with the ubiquitous "Idiot's Guide" series. They've covered everything from oral sex to home buying. And the series has never shied away from explaning loftier subjects like Judaism and spirituality. Now, we're happy to report, there are three new editions to add to their ever-growing religious cannon: The Complete Idiot's Guides to Prayer, Jesus, and (our personal favorite) Mary Magdalene where we discoved that although it is fairly well-known that Jimi Hendrix wrote Wind Cries Mary after a breakup with his girlfriend, some Mary Magdalene enthusiasts believe that it perfectly reflects the new "lost feminine" mythology of Mary Magdalene. Hmmm ... maybe they should think about publishing a Complete Idiot's Guide to the Idiot's Guides.
