Amen and Amen

Cathleen Falsani, religion writer for your Chicago Sun-Times and the Religion Newswriters Association's 2005 Religion Writer of the Year, can no longer stand by silently:

I'm reluctant to appear unduly partisan, at least not in print.

I don't want to paint one political ideology or another with a broad brush, and I am reticent always to judge the quality of anyone's faith (or heart), that of a president or anyone else.

But there comes a time when silence is immoral. Now, I believe, is that time.

If you have ever found anything on this blog of any interest, please, please, please read Falsani's entire column.
