According to the erudite tv sage Michelle Bernard, "100's of millions of people in the
United States have read and follow The Purpose Driven life" by, Rick Warren.

WOW. Really? I would never have heard of it unless some convicted murderer in Georgia had not taken some lady hostage.

5. She's a Republican, what do you expect?
MSNBC really needs to stop using non-partisan labels for people who constantly spout an agenda.

6. o0
there's approx. 300 million people in the US - total.
Even if we assume "100's of millions" really means 1 hundred million that's still 1 out of every 3 people in the US.
I'm sure if you knock out children too young to read, blind people, the illiterate, the satanists (us), the catatonic, etc. etc. you'd probably knock that down to something like 1 out of every 2.5 people.

I'm sure I know somebody who has read it ... I just never realized that nearly every other person has read it.
