De La Torre Does It Again

I love a well crafted analogy. De La Torre does an excellent job of it in this Ethics Daily article. It's quite timely for me since just a few weeks ago I was amazed to hear from a friend who has always been staunchly fundamentalist-Christians only teaching her children in the public schools. She announced that she was now against teachers leading students in prayer at school. Further inquiry revealed that the influx of South Asians, Muslims, Hindus, and other non-WASPs into their community had made her realize that she would be uncomfortable with someone of another faith leading her child in prayer. Hmmmm. Imagine that.
