Yet, she has no problem earning her living in higher education. As a fellow New Yorker and an employee of New York's University system, I can explain the seeming hypocricy. The jobs pay well.

He contrasts the "magnificent Quran's" view of Mary as honorable..." For the information of those of you who are not familiar wth the Quran, this happens to be an observable fact. Unlike the Christian Bible, the Islamic holy book, the Quran (sometimes spelled Koran), has a complete separate Sura (one of the 114 books or chapters of the Quran) named "Mary," telling a different version of the story of how Jesus was conceived and born. Mary is mentioned only 19 times in the entire New Testament, but she is mentioned 34 times in the Quran.

Couple that with a generation that has convinced itself that its parents, teachers, spiritual advisors, and its 125 preceding generations spanning over 2,500 years have, to the last one, been utterly <b>WRONG</b> in <b>EVERYTHING</b> all those 2,500 years. “War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength.”
