   That’s a great clip!! My favorite part was her line: “The opposite of faith isn’t doubt - it’s uncertainty.” So true. After all, faith needs doubt, or it isn’t faith.

   And it sums up my reservations about the idea of a Pope, or for that matter any religious figure who takes too strict a position of authority. It assumes he (or she) understands God better than others do or can.

   Love that Colbert kept asking questions and getting into the subject matter!

   Love this!!! I didn’t realize Anne had been on Colbert’s show.

   I love that she totally held her own with him, and Colbert actually asked “the right kind of questions”.

   “Our job is not to scare people into a relationship with God, but to love them into a relationshp with Him.”

   Way to go Anne!

   Thanks for posting!
