Religion in the News

Okay, in the span of just a few minutes I've heard the UMC sponsor a segment on CNN and a long story about who people do or don't like that has been invited to pray at Obama's inauguration. Really? I mean, I always wanted the religious discourse to open up a bit (from the iron grip the religious right had on it)...but it was a lot more fun to make fun of people from a distance. Not sure I like being with the group who gets to be picked on now...
