Great Quote on American Values

This quote was lifted from a comment on a blog. The author of the quote is Anne of Spokane. The context was a discussion on the war on terror:

Even in our post-Christian western world, this war is profoundly religious because we value human life enough to reject the indiscriminate, hateful taking of it. Although non-Christians don’t know why they should value human life, they are living off the theological interest of Christians who know that every human bears, however minimally, the image of God, and that unknown multitudes have and are destined to become living temples of God. Muslim temples, mosques, are made of stone while ours are made of flesh.
