The Bishop and the Butterfly: Murder, Politics, and the End of the Jazz Age

We're About to Take a Good Thing Too Far

The attacks on the American embassy in Libya, resulting in four deaths, was a terrible, terrible event. It's not likely to be one-of-a-kind.

This act was supposedly spurred on by an anti-Islam movie. It happened overseas. But it can backfire here. Religion is a touchy subject. Religious people are notoriously thin-skinned, even intolerant. And religious groups are easily targeted for being different.

But this isn't about religious tolerance. Or it isn't entirely. It's about attitude.
