Amanda I LOVE that your organization exists. I feel that people of all faiths need to come together in common purpose to heal the world's challenges.

Cynthia Jean Ryan Reverend Gaddy was excellent on Olbermann. I am an atheist but I admire him for saying it as it is and as it should be. Our nation would benefit from more citizens like this gentleman.

Jeremy It is amazing to me that this organization (and I quote) "The Interfaith Alliance celebrates religious freedom by championing individual rights, promoting policies that protect both religion and democracy, and uniting diverse voices to challenge extremism" while in the same blog stating, in reference to Shirley Dobson... "she has no right to demand or even to expect that the White House will embrace a national event that is not inclusive of all Americans"...how can one champion individual rights, and in the same stroke of the pen seek to strike the right of an individual. It seems that you are seeking to have it both ways.

Betty Refior I do miss Walter Cronkite. If Welton Gaddy can fill his shoes, I must be a fan of his too.
