Others here have though...the point is simple really, no major world religion teaches killing and terrorism, folks who are "true" Christians, Muslims, Jews, etc aren't out murdering folks...but many murders do indeed hide behind the cloak of religion and pervert the teachings of said religion to validate their acts. The problem is that while we all defend our beliefs (and rightly so), we are often quick to generalize and condemn others.....Muslims didn't blow up the towers, terrorists did, a Christian didn't blow up the building in Okl City, a terrorist did!

i know i like being in a position of having to apologize profusely. certainly makes things all better. the part i read earlier, about them not even allowing the family to fly AFTER they were re-cleared, was the best part of all. i know air tran would be my choice for future flights.

Atif Irfan, a lawyer from Alexandria, Va., says a conversation with his sister-in-law about the safest seats in an airplane were misconstrued by fellow passengers.

that's right. they also refused to make up the difference in their ticket price vs the higher prices tickets the family had to buy from another carrier. i doubt this story is over.
