     Two questions:

      1) Who the hell gave Christians the monopoly on morality?
      2) What are you hopes for the color of Renner's skin?

         [For those who just CAN'T understand: Polli's implicit
          equating of being moral with being Christian is offensive
          to Jews, Moslems and other minorities.  He wouldn't dare
          condemn Renner and then say "I hope you're not white."
          Condemning a man as immoral and then
          expressing hopes for his religion is
          equally as offensive]
