The politics of Mr. Reagan's son have nothing to do with my comment. His memories of his father, expressed in a service to commemorate his father's passing, should not be a subject for judgmental wise-cracks. And the particular passage, which you and several others have referred to, should not offend any genuinely religious person. He spoke of the genuine faith and sincere commitment of his father. He distinguished his father from poseurs and hypocrites, but named no one as such. Only one who acknowledges wearing his "Faith" on his sleeve for ulterior motives, could possibly take offense.

If some folk are looking for a fight, because they do not like the son's politics, they should wait for a more appropriate occasion. His father's passing and funeral is not a fit occasion for such confrontational efforts.

And they had everything to do with mine. It is you who persists in questioning and condemning the theology and faith of someone who observed a cynical political motivation and made a cynical response. I don't believe I ever wrote that his comments were offensive, yours however have been.
