    Just wanted to hear someone from the other side admit it. You've actually restored my faith that someone on the left actually can think rationally.

    This is absolutely brilliant. And I've got dibs on No. 93.

    And Hondo, my fellow golfing traveler, your points are well taken. Radical Islam IS a legitimate threat... as is radical fill-in-the-religion-here. As a (albeit lapsed) Jew, I've maintained forever that if anything would take down the state of Israel, it would come from within -- from the nutjob ultra-Orthodox.

    What I am alarmed about is the rise of religious extremism both outside this country (see Afghanistan and what has become of Iraq, among other places) and inside (see the rise of the Religious Right). The documentary "Jesus Camp" was one of the most unsettling things I've ever seen... and it would be equally unsettling concerning ANY religion.

    Before I saw it, I saw a clip about it on CNN or ABC (can't remember which). I told my 12-year-old son, who was watching it with me, that it is up to him and his generation to do everything they can to prevent the theocratic enveloping of this country by these people (which is what they are advocating) from happening.

    Doesn't mean I hate Christianity. Not hardly. It does mean I value the premises on which this country was founded.

    Both forms of extremism scare the bejesus out of me. Neither means I hate Christianity. I trust you know the difference.

    Yawn? I'm not so sure.
