CNN has posted a history of bias against Sikhs - more reason for people to learn about religions before they attack anyone:...

Whitney Houston's funeral service really took the world to church. Love Pastor Winans' honesty, very moving.

Recently, Religion Transcends writer Jackie Walker reported on apologies from the Catholic Church, on behalf of Religion News Service (see “Got a Complaint? Chicago Catholics Want to Listen”).
In this article, local-level parishes were apologizing to disillusioned members for any actions by Catholics or the Catholic Church that may have caused them to leave the church.
Now, the pope is apologizing to victims of sexual abuse in Ireland for the wrongs of some Catholic leaders. This apology marks the second formal apology by clergy in the last four months to victims of priest sexual abuse in Ireland.
Religion News Service quotes some victims’ agencies as saying the apology isn’t enough; what’s truly needed is prevention of priest sexual abuse.
What do you think? Is an apology enough? Is it a start?
