Your January 16, 2004, editorial ("Getting Religion") describes Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean as "resolutely secular" and as having a "tin ear for religion." Like most Northeasterners, Dean does not talk about his religion in public, considering it a private matter. He was angered by his former (Episcopalian) church's refusal to allow a bike path through property it owned along Lake Champlain and became a Congregationalist. His present denomination is that of the pilgrims who landed on Plymouth Rock in 1620. It is hard to get much more American than this.
