Oh, and Nathaniel, if you think Canada is bad, did you see what’s up at Yale? Here’s a bit from Michael Gerson’s column in yesterday’s Washington Post:
The American kickoff of the Tony Blair Faith Foundation last week unintentionally revealed the mountain of misunderstanding the former British prime minister has undertaken to scale. At an event designed to further mutual religious sympathy, two of the panelists — including the president of Yale University, Richard Levin — casually asserted that religious Americans who support pro-life restrictions on international family planning aid are as doctrinaire and exclusionary as Saudi extremists. Pro-life Catholics and evangelicals? Wahhabi extremists? What’s the difference?
Clearly, mutual religious sympathy has a ways to go in places such as Yale.
