Today in GlobeSouth: a look at a Marshfield cantor's rock band and the world of contemporary Jewish music.

Also, the controversy over the women's ordination issue, which generated a ton of e-mail that I posted here and here, is now generating letters to the editor here and here.

From Jerusalem, where the Globe's Sasha Issenberg travelled with Barack Obama, a report on some criticism from Jewish religious organizations of Obama's position on Jerusalem.

And, for those of you who like a little fiction mixed with your Catholicism, the Globe's travel section explored the Rome of Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. This isn't mentioned in the travel story, but longtime readers will recall that the church that is the site of one of the most gruesome murders in Angels and Demons is now Cardinal Sean P. O'Malley's titular church in Rome. The film crew was barred from shooting inside the church, but O'Malley's spokesman told me the cardinal had nothing to do with that decision, which apparently was made by the diocese of Rome.
