Journal-Sentinel OpEd Standards Dropped Off the Table For This One

I can't believe this thing is going to be printed in tomorrow's Journal-Sentinel. It's an op-ed by Dale Reich.

The piece starts by Reich, a deeply religious person, describing an out-of-religious experiment he undertook to see the world through the eyes of an atheist. And as if you couldn't already guess that this misguided experiment was an utter failure, he uses the rest of the op-ed to demonstrate just how bad it failed.

I know it's an op-ed, but that doesn't mean you need to print garbage like this. I don't even know if I'd print something like this in the letters to the editor. It's that bad.
