The Mullah in the Cathedral

Chuck Colson wrote this excellent commentary about America's "dialogue" with Iran. Colson is no right-wing ranter. He is, IMO, one of the most compassionate and sensible commentators on world events today. For him to call something "blasphemy" is not inflammatory. America entertaining a terrorist sponsor in the name of "tolerance" is like inviting a cobra into the nursery.

Our dangerous error is this: We don't know why we believe what we believe, or we don't know what we believe, or as with many Americans, we consider all beliefs equal and therefore irrelevant. Our enemies do not see their religion or their government this way.

Colson is right about why the National Cathedral invited the Iranian spokesman: "... because they don't take the truth claims of their own religion seriously, [they] assume the same of the Iranian leadership."
