"I am not a Mormon. I'm Presbyterian."

"Me neither. I'm Roman Catholic."
Quote:
The head of the Presbyterian Church in Canada says President Bush wants to attack Iraq to control Mideast oil supplies. The Rev. Mark Lewis also accuses Bush of wanting to make Western civilization and religion dominant in the Mideast. Lewis says Bush doesn't grasp the concept of people from different backgrounds and religions living together. The Presbyterian moderator is one of 16 Canadian religious leaders urging Prime Minister Jean Chretien to push for peace talks to avert war in Iraq.

Yeah, there's lot of that going around.
<blockquote>
The rioting spread Friday 225 miles southwest to the capital, Abuja, where the beauty pageant is still planned to take place Dec. 7. Muslim protesters armed with sticks, machetes and daggers burned cars and attacked pedestrians outside the city’s plush international hotels after gathering outside the central mosque following afternoon prayers....Rioters pulled a local journalist off a motorcycle and told him he would be killed unless he could recite verses from Islam’s holy book, the Quran. The crowd released him unharmed when they realized he was Muslim....Young Muslim men shouting ‘‘Allahu Akhbar,’’ or ‘‘God is great,’’ ignited makeshift barricades of tires and garbage. Others chanted, ‘‘Down with beauty’’ and ‘‘Miss World is sin.’’-- AP Wire
