Fine with me. But you're wrong about what I really mean when it comes
to Ralph Reed. I only care about his religious beliefs when he brings
them into the political arena. And I'm quite willing to tell any Jew or
Muslim who uses his politics to hateful ends that he's abusing the
dignity of a religous tradition that deserves a far different kind of
respect.

Having got that off my chest, I will offer an olive branch, knowing

may not satisfy you. I do see and hear anti-Christian bias in the
academy, especially in literary study. I wouldn't say it's prevalent

endemic, but it's there, and it isn't called out the way less
fashionable kinds of prejudice are.
OK. I accept. Your points about the PTA and school prayers are
also on
the mark.
I also acknowledge that the ivory tower crack was not helpful.
Actually, it really was not my goal to go off on an angry
tangent. I
would really rather talk about Shakespeare or something.
