What is more, you even get the same conclusions on the sports, tv reviews, recipe pages, and gardening sections. They all must join the same club when they go to work at the newspapers.

I work for a major daily newspaper. It's astonishing: these people believe they are the most intellectually gifted around, yet there's hardly an independent thinker among them. Their thoughts are in lockstep with each other. They work to please themselves and each other. They are full of themselves because, after all, they are so smart and thus they deserve the right to determine what news the people read, and how that news should be massaged to fit their agenda. They don't especially like me. They know I work for pro-life organizations (they tried to get me fired once for the pro-life work that I do on my own time), that I'm a Christian, that I vote conservative, etc. It baffles them when I do things in the office such as conceive and direct a program to aid the homeless. I'm somewhat amused but also saddened when I cheerfully say "Hi" to the most arrogant of them, and they barely, if at all, turn their head in acknowledgement. I must remember this, though: I need to pray more for them, for after all, I'm a sinner just as they are. I'm saved by Jesus Christ dying on the cross for me to pay for my sins.
