Praise on the National Post continuing

When I read that the National Post is continuing to publish, as a Jewish reader and letter writer, my first thought was “Thank God”. Op-ed writer Tarek Fatah would have said, “Praise Allah”. This dichotomy might seem strange, but although Allah and God are brothers, they don’t get along very well. Michael Coren would have thanked Jesus, as Coren always works through an intermediary, and he knows that Jesus is absolutely, positively, and definitely the one to thank. Most of their “ faithful” readers would say “Thank heaven” or Thank God”. Their secular readers would say “Thank goodness”, and Hitchens would say “Thank me” because he knows that there is absolutely, positively, and definitely no one or nothing else to thank.
