17. That's wrong
Edited on Thu Mar-30-06 12:41 PM by Marie26
That's so wrong that I don't even know where to begin. The "Christian Science Monitor" is not a christian proselytizing paper; instead, it's one of the most objective, fair & well-respected newspapers in the world. Carroll was not a missionary, she was a journalist who had worked at the Wall Street Journal & wanted to pursue her dream of becoming a foreign correspondent. She did not try to "impose" Christianity on Iraq; she wasn't there to impose anything, only to observe & report on life in Iraq. And she did that w/bravery & compassion for the Iraqis. She WAS NOT a Christian martyr; she was a journalist. If you can't understand the difference between a missionary & a reporter, I'm not sure I can help you. Try reading some of Carroll's articles for the CSM, she's really a great reporter.
