As one critic put it, such rhetoric causes divisiveness when the world's religions and ideologies should be coming together.

I'm thinking about instituting an annual Righteous Arrogance Award to be voted
on by readers (and, yes, I'll include myself as a nominee, for even bloggers
about RA can be R[ly]A at times). I will, of course, post all the nominees and
the winner towards the end of the year in a full article (on OpEdNews as well).
Driscoll, of course, is the first nominee.
