Radio Revealer, Part II
13 January 2004It turned out a bit like Canterbury Tales -- a motley assembly of true believers, kneeling drunkards, and ecstatic skeptics gathered over the airwaves on a cold, dark evening, trading tales... such was yesterday's edition of the radio current affairs show "On Point," hosted by Tom Ashbrook with commentator Jack Beatty, of The Atlantic Monthly. The official guests were The Revealer's own Jeff Sharlet along Peter Manseau, co-authors of Killing the Buddha: A Heretic's Bible, but the stars were Tom from Wisconsin who damned us all, and Veeka from somewhere in New England who debunked debunking, and Fred, an Orthodox rabbi from somewhere in Boston, who schooled us in the geography of G-d, and perhaps most of the all the airwaves that bound us together to talk about how to talk about believing. Good radio, good God.
