Al, <OBL is an extreme example...Falwell and other evangelists of discord are measures of the same kind the world would frankly be a good deal better without.>

So you think Jerry "Mohammed was a terrorist" Falwell belongs in the same camp as Osama bin Laden? Wow! Can I place anyone who claims "Jesus and his followers were liars or lunatics" in the same camp as well?

Last time I checked, Falwell isn't inciting his followers to fly planes into skyscrapers. Or detonate explosive hidden in their shoes. Or fire anti-aircraft missiles at planes taking off. Or bomb embassies. Nor is Falwell doing anything that indirectly hints at such extremist action.

If you find Falwell's comments distasteful and inappropriate, fine. Just say so. No need to associate him or anyone else you find distasteful with terrorists. That would be rather "intolerant" of you, which is ironic considering how liberals are supposedly the champions of "tolerance."
