See, e.g. Burke's _Reflections on the Revolutions in France_ (yeah, he got a lot wrong, but the core attacks on revolutionary rather than incremental change, and acting on abstract principle without regard to facts or circumstances are definitely worth considering).

Scott, how would you distinguish between "weak/passive" atheism and agnosticism?

Rich, whether or not any of us voted for Marc Moron or any of the rest of them, they're on Air America, which is certainly being billed as "our" radio network. You think people _don't_ associate the people on Air America with the American Left? I thought that was the whole point?

That Iraq is currently going to hell in a handbasket doesn't mean that other things aren't also worthy of at least some attention and comment. I don't think tunnel vision is helpful here.

Well, if these idiots are hosts on the new highly-publicized new liberal radio network, it's not like we can claim that they're just some isolated wackos who don't speak for/on behalf of liberals. If they don't speak for us, why are they on Air America? I don't think that we have to apologize for every idiot in a comment section, no. But that's not where this discussion started.

Step back for a second. Forget about the issue of who represents liberals or whether there's a double standard between left and right, or any of that. Two radio hosts went out of their way to attack religion and Christianity on _Good Friday_. Isn't that worthy of at least some negative comment, just for grounds of general rudeness and bigotry? Put it another way: is _this_ what we want Air America to be like?

Change Peru to Spain, perhaps?

It could be worse...you could be younger than 25, like me. ;)

Which issues did you have in mind?

Question, Yehudit: what kind of profile does this investigation (however extensive or non-extensive it may be) have in the media and the public mind as a whole? Do you think most people are aware of it, and that the government and the media as a whole are making a point of talking about it? (If not, why not?)

One other question: are you _trying_ to get disemvowelled?
