Entry: Learning to Love the French Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/learning_to_love_the_french#12345 Post contents: Charles, You might want to consider a consoling possibility: could it be that the reason for Protestant neoconservatives' hostility toward the "cheese eating surrender monkeys" is that French Catholics still retain the core ideas of Christianity that American Protestants have lost? After all, did Christ really teach us to say: "I want Osama bin Laden alive or dead"? Would Christ ever have said: "Bring them on"? Worse still, why did no American Protestant preacher rise an objection when President Bush made these statements? That they are fiercely attacked by people who call themselves "Christians" does not mean French Catholics' understanding of Christianity is wrong. Sent at: 2008 11 23
