Al Franken is a sometimes comedian who fancies himself a political commentator. He's sometimes okay as the former and really sucks as the latter.

On the whole, I sometimes feel sorry for most of the major organized religions. Christianity, Catholicism, Judaism (to name a few) have taken a lot of heat as religions because of the actions of some of the so-called leaders and
some of its membership. On the whole, I don't believe these religions to be bad: just the actions of some of its membership who claim to act on behalf OF the religion.
It is often a struggle for me to not hate the religion as a whole because of the idiotic actions of the few.
