If I weren't at work, I'd drink to that. Unfortunately, it's what the media picks up about these people that sticks in a lot of leftie minds, which really does drive a wedge between the left and Christianity, whereas if we saw more of people like Mother Angelica, or Sister Prejean, or John Dear, Christianity wouldn't receive such of a bad rap as it does now. Unfortunately, due to these people actively doing stuff thats, well, Christian, they don't have a lot of time to talk to the press.

Which astounds me about that faction of the extreme religious right in America: they don't seem to do a lot of philanthropic deeds, or they can't fit them in with all their public appearances denouncing things like using 'happy holidays' as a seasonal greeting.
