I honestly didn't know that there were those who still felt like that. I must say I'm pretty shocked. Here in SF we had religious leaders from just about every religious groups, including some I had never even heard of, at out memorial Everyone was respectful, everyone was compassionate, everyone offered those listening healing.

Except, and this is wonderfully ironic, the sole Baptist (I think) Rev. Amos Brown, who took the opportunity to condemn the US and say that we had brought the attacks on ourselves for turning away from Jesus. He was just about killed in the press the next day from ALL camps.

I guess I've just gotten so used to being around religious folks who are comfortable with other faiths/denominations, and who understand there can be something learned from them all.

I was raised Catholic, but instructed in such a way that, as an adult, I see value in all the truly spiritual paths.
