Where Are the Voices of Faith About Iran? -- Politics Daily

Where Are the Voices of Faith About Iran? -- Politics Daily: "Watching the TV and Internet as events spin wildly in Iran, I went searching for what I was sure would be religious institutional voices weighing in. I've mostly come up dry.
Usually such hugely public events mean that my e-box fills with official statements from the broad spectrum of institutional religion. So far I've seen nothing. So I went searching. I've done Internet news searches for 'Iran' and a bunch of other religious terms: 'Bishop' and 'Catholic' and 'Baptist' and 'pastor' and 'rabbi.'

Aside from the leaders of a few U.S. congregations that include Iranian immigrants, I'm finding nothing.

Here's an AP story about Iranian Christian churches. They're praying."
