My own post for today, on fear of Muslims and religious tolerance and the election of public figures, did not come together in time.  Just as well.  I'd rather have it in good shape and my thoughts as clear as I can before I post it.

However, I would like to post a few links.

The first, to Terry Karney's post for today, "Today, call me a Muslim ."

The second, to a post made about three weeks ago by Fred Clark over at Slacktivist, "Please forgive me for the actions of extremists I have never met who commit acts of violence that I have never advocated."

 And finally, for everyone of all religious persuasions, "God Angrily Clarifies Don't Kill Rule."
