Can you believe that loaded question in #18?

Given the parameters, that was a backhanded slap.

The question was what one expected. You can see we anticipated it in #12.

But let's say I see a cloud formation in the shape of a cross, take a picture of it, and say that it symbolizes for me the triumph of Christianity. Does that make me crazy....or does that make me Emperor Constantine?

Yesterday while flying to BWI, (An Air Mobility Command airport) the flight attandant took three service people and put them in first class. Then as we were taxiing to the gate, he said we as a Nation should Thank God for our troops and what they are doing. Half of the MD-80 was service men and women returning to Iraq. The lukewarm response he received for his statement wasnt, IMHO, because a bunch of anti-war people were on board, it was because he mentioned God. The further away we push Him in the name of PC, the deeper we spiral downward..

Thanks for this post, I've never read Gelernter but if this article is an indicator he's really, really good.

BTW, given the above quote from Washington along with others he made, by today's standards he would have been branded a wild-eyed fanatic and long since discharged.

Abdul who resides in London or France,
May hear of the crater, and have a new chance.
