At my daughter's graduation here in Prince George's County, Maryland, the saluatorian mention God and the valvictorian gave her speech in the form of a letter to God, and closed it with thanks to her favorite 'man' for guiding her and helping make her what she is, Jesus.

The audience applauded. Something to say for a predominantly black group of parents in a heavily democrat county.

Deep down, there's a lot more to people than we think.

Not surprising. I don't know how it is in your neck of the woods but the overwhelming majority of faces at my church (and most other evangelical churches) here in Toronto are black. The faith seems to be much stronger here among African and Caribean immigrants than among the native-born.

Somehow liberals don't find it offensive when blacks do this sort of thing. Something like, well, it is part of "their"culture. A way for liberals to demonstrate their tolerance.

God bless her! What an awesome witness to our Lord and Savior.
