Pope is Catholic... American heterodox majority hardest hit
Mark Finkelstein, posting at Newsbusters.org, saves us a trip to the confessional by watching the Today show for us. Finkelstein does such a good job lampooning the MSM, I don't really have anything left to say, but: "Read it".
Interviewed by Katie Couric, Dickey first claimed that Europeans view Benedict "with some skepticism right now. People are looking at this Pope and saying what does he want to do by re-Christianizing Europe?"Gee, and here I thought that was a Pope's job.
Dickey then added, with breathtaking condescension, "on the other hand he isn't creating the kinds of problems people thought he would. There was a lot of suspicion that he would be so emphasizing Christianity that it would alienate Muslims, that it would alienate Jews in Europe."
What a relief. We certainly can't have a Pope creating problems with that Christianity stuff.
