taking the Arab world's temperature

The Arab world is turning its back on religion and on US relations, according to the largest public opinion survey ever carried out in the region.
A survey of more than 25,000 people across 10 countries and the Palestinian territories found that trust in religious leaders has plummeted in recent years.
For those as dumb as I am, this story is a helpful antidote to the sense of a monolithic Islam and a monolithic Arab mind-set.

Boy, is my ignorance pervasive!

  1. Really? You really think you’ve tendencies to think in monolithic terms?

    You seem rather up on current events and you seem to have progressive leanings. I can’t imagine how a diehard FoxNews watcher thinks.
