If Obama had to choose Biden to shore up the ticket's foreign policy credentials, doesn't that merely concede the Republicans' argument that he has a problem in that area? I think this pick will shine a huge spotlight on his supposed lack of experience.

I hope that the two kids mentioned in the article were adopted, because procreation is way more environmentally destructive than driving an SUV.

"It's your fault too,"

Too?

Unless you left something out, it wasn't his fault at all...

Humbleness and humility? I supported and voted for Obama, but humble he is not. We're talking about the man who all but declared himself the New Lincoln this week.

..or its environs is an obscene luxury, even though it might not seem that way to those crammed into tiny, dark one-room apartments. But yes, it is a luxury. So to suffer angst over your inability to afford it is just as absurd as feeling angst over not being able to buy a yacht, or a diamond bracelet.

Eagleton is free to pat himself on the back over his subtle and refined form of Christianity, but what he's describing is not religion at all, it's literature. If, as the article states, "He freely admits that what Christian doctrine teaches about the universe and the fate of man may not be true, or even plausible," then he might as well be getting his life lessons and warm fuzzies from Shakespeare or Tolstoy or any other teller of tales.

But grave dangers arise when one becomes convinced that these tales are literally true, and that is what Dawkins and Hitchens and Harris so rightly attack.
