Keep the door closed....

Curt Jester comments here on an article by Fr. Andrew Greely entitled "Fall Election Hinges on Race." As Curt Jester points out, such an assertion is ridiculous, and I would say that it is harmful. All this crying of "wolf" whenever racism could be an issue only leads to a hypersensitivity to any question of racism. Not that we should discount the possibilities of or problems with racism, but we must not keep opening every door with the intent of finding some racist bogey monster there.
