‘Obama’ and ‘infanticide’ are being matched in the latest venom eruption on hate-monger sites. For the record, Senator Obama did NOT vote for infanticide while in the Illinois State legislature.
At issue is his vote on a bill entitled, ‘Born Alive Infants Protection Act’ – BAIPA, for short — which was first introduced into the Illinois [...]

A US publisher has cancelled the publication of a novel about the youngest wife of the Muslim prophet Mohammed amid a growing controversy over the book.
‘The Jewel of Medina,’ a debut novel by journalist Sherry Jones about Mohammed’s child bride A’isha had been due for release in the United States last week.

Edicts like this remind me why even though I have some form of religious leaning, I’m not a member of an actual church.

It seems to me the answer is no. The coverage is almost uniformly laudatory, dazzled by the spectacle with an occasional word about the globe-spanning sexual abuse scandal.

I try so hard not to write about this racial stuff, but then Amy Sullivan writes this:
But I’ll be back in a few hours to talk about why the Democratic party outsourced religion to black churches, and how that’s hurt the party. It’s also left most Americans with a Disney-fied impression of African-American religious leaders [...]
Kirsten Powers - Fox News analyst and Democrat - errs on the side of Hugh Hewitt, right wing talk show host and Republican shill. The issue: religious fundamentalism. As I discussed earlier, Powers appears to see this widespread persecution of the religious that isn’t actually happening (that the illustration of her point is a few [...]
