Published on April 21, 2010

Religion Dispatches has dueling articles by Francis Kissling (former president of Catholics for Choice) and Eric Reitan (author and philosophy teacher at Oklahoma State University).

Reitan says Dawkins and Hitchens are simply out for stunt-making and that the pope is innocent until proven guilty.
