Even Daniel Got A Trial Before Being Condemned to the Lion’s Den
Am I the only one who hears that the AFA opposes, sight unseen, NBC’s The Book of Daniel (partly) on grounds that a writer is a “practicing homosexual” and wants to ask for the scripture that says, “Let he who is without sin write the first scene”?
Also, if having an imperfect character (and all we know about Daniel Webster seems to be that he’s a drug addict) who happens to be a priest is enough to determine that the show is an attack on Christianity, shouldn’t the AMA be up at arms about House, M. D.?
Look, the show might very well be total crap. It’s altogether feasible that it’s not a “positive portrayal of Christ and Christians,” as NBC would have us believe it is. Isn’t it a bit early to begin deciding that before it has ever aired?

I agree with you. I wasn’t even going to watch the show, because the ads had the ‘everything but the kitchen sink’ tone, but thanks to the AFA I am going to give Book of Daniel a chance.
