Good writing and a great article. Do you remember when Reagan tore the solar panels off the west wing roof? It was the end of an era. There are actually advocacy groups trying to get them back up, along with a group who is trying to get a vegy garden on the white house lawn. We lead by example, right? Working in D.C., I've promised to get pics, if the garden ever happens. Keep up the good fight girl! and keep altering the eco! A fellow environmental writer Way to go Amanda.

I think you didn't understand that this post was written in a light-hearted, slightly satirical feel. And though I goofed with the St. Francis thing, I grew up going to a Catholic church and with CCD every week, so it wasn't for lack of a religious background or lack of investigation. Just an honest mistake. I'm sorry you feel this way. I think you didn't understand that this post was written in a light-hearted, slightly satirical feel.

First, Benedict is not a 7 day creationist or anything approaching a biblical literalist. Second, St. Francis was a medieval figure not someone living anywhere near the time period in which the author places him. I guess all of the nuance we see in investigating most things in life stops when the term religion comes up and it is ok to be sloppy and treat Benedict as though he was Pat Robertson or something. Do a little research next time. Great work from the Pope, but this article stinks. First, Benedict is not a 7 day creationist or anything approaching a biblical literalist.
