Krauthammer accuses me of having "parroted" Muslims' charges that the "tunnel cuts under their compound" and their claim that the act was "a crime against Islam." That is precisely what the Muslims did say. But either he didn't watch the next several minutes of our news broadcast or ignored the remainder of the report. I added in my very next sentence that the "Israelis say they have touched nothing holy, merely a raw political nerve." Elsewhere on World News Tonight, we made it clear that the Muslim claim was, technically speaking, ambiguous at best. I recognize Krauthammer's license...

Both responses to the Bible's first book have their own validity. Both--in more sophisticated form--were on display last week, when pbs launched the most ambitious Bible-study class ever to air on nationally broadcast television: a two-month series called Genesis: A Living Conversation, with Bill Moyers as host.

Although quick to say she "thoroughly enjoyed" her experience on the show, she found the conversations were missing something: "I wondered about...
...enthusiastic response to his pre-broadcast promotion of the show would seem to support that observation. In Port Jervis, New York, an art gallery has opened an exhibit of Genesis scenes, while a nearby cancer center is using the series to foster communication between patients and their families. Between them, Women of Reform Judaism and United Methodist Women have sent out thousands of study guides on how to replicate the television discussion. In Kansas City, Missouri, Shepherd's Centers of America, serving older adults in 26 states, is scheduling discussion groups with a target population of 1 million. All told...
