Bin Laden Is Dead, But…
Osama bin Laden is dead, but... Yes, we all were relieved to learn Osama bin Laden was killed by US forces.

But the controversy surrounding the “Ground Zero mosque” will also dominate the minds of millions. Two religions—Christianity and Islam—will be in the headlines; both are controversial and both claim to have “the truth” about the nature of God and the path of salvation.
