Americans in the pews must find Jesus either dull or boring (never judge a book by it's cover) because I don't think they understand What Jesus Meant (interview with author Gary Wills, mp3 26.4 MB).

Namely, they seem to think that Jesus is okay with war.

In general, the more frequently an American attends church, the less likely he or she is to say the war [in Iraq] was a mistake.

In a not altogether unrelated development, I came across some infamous Anglicans/Episcopalians who aren't exactly pacifists:

• Betsy Braddock ("Psylocke"),
• Brian Braddock ("Captain Britain"),
• Jean Grey ("Phoenix"),
• Hank McCoy ("the Beast"),
• Rev. Dr. Christopher Syn ("Scarecrow of Romey Marsh;" an Anglican clergyman!),
• Bruce Wayne ("Batman;" possibly Catholic, but let's hope for the best),
• and Warren Worthington III ("Archangel;" I could be wrong, but isn't this the guy our vice president shot in the face?)
