Keep up the good fight!Reader comment on item: Arguing over "Jihad and the Professors" Submitted by Michael Clark (United States), Feb 7, 2003 at 14:06 Daniel,I just read your response to letters that were written to you about your book, "Jihad and the Professors." Well done. Truth is hard to come by in this culture of "political correctness" and smoke and mirrors in the media. Many want to be thought of as followers of the truth, but few truly hope the they will catch it. As Soren Kierkegaard spoke so well, "...the larger the crowd, the more probable that that which it praises is folly, and the more improbable that it is truth; and the most improbable of all that it is any eternal truth."... There is no such thing as a "holy war." War is hell...
