I normally don’t want to stray too far afield of our Catholic faith here, but I found this item in the Washington Post quite interesting, on a number of fronts.

First, it was written (separately) by the legendary Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward.

Second, it delves into the shared faith of two radically different types of Christians, Hillary Clinton and George W. Bush.

And finally, it showcases the laudable efforts some mainstream newspapers are making to give time and attention to issues of God and faith. The Washington Post’s online “On Faith” section has become one of the most consistently interesting attempts to present a wide range of voices, from a variety of religions. I hope it continues.

Meantime, check out what Wood-Stein has to say about Clinton and Bush.
