Mark Silk, who pens the must-read blog "Spiritual Politics" is a scholar and a thoughtful commentator on religion and politics. The two qualities rarely combine so nicely in the same person.
And, Silk has had the fortitude to take on Bill Donohue before. Now, he looks at Donohue's diatribe against the John Jay report because it declined to endorse his bigoted idea that gays are the problem in the pedophilia crisis. Bigotry is uninformed prejudice. Donohue's photo could appear next to the dictionary entry in Webster's.
