An interesting turn on a person's words

Just finished reading this article - www.politicsdaily.com/2010/01/21/haiti-and-the-pat-robertson-paradox/

I really like how the author points out some interesting observations about religion in America and how Mr. Robertson's Haiti comments brought out a curious response, one that is as telling as Mr. Robertson's words

And it is the comments in this article that bring me to the belief that, even though i am agnostic, I think my little one needs to experience religion and study it because right now, it is a driving shaping force for so many and as pointed out in the article, it shapes and influences the responses, motivations and thoughts of so many. Now, I so believe in teaching religion more from an academic point - but the cultural and "faith" aspects need to be understood as well.

Anyhoos, it is interesting, as always, what makes the world go round. Enjoy the article and thinking about things from a different view.
