Preacher’s Wife

  • and said:

Even I, as an Agnostic, am touched by her story, which gives evidence to the idea that banding together does a lot more good than segregating based on ideologies. It’s rare these days for people to remember that believing in something is about wanting to help, not about being politically correct or “right” all the time.

Madame President

  • and said:

Even as an agnostic, I wholeheartedly support Mattson’s efforts to moderate Islam teachings and others’ opinions on them. Because, especially in the West, we are not taught other religions beside our own or any other cultural perspectives until we are older (college, i suppose), our opinions of other “outsider” religions have already been formed. Hopefully, she will rally more support and further acknowledgment of the true Islam, the religion that doesn’t support extremism.

Like aa1, I too found the stereotypes refreshing, a nice touch to the tone of the article. While a serious topic, it’s important to be able to laugh, too. Sometimes not being PC is alright.
