==Murrow's ''This I believe''==
The the physicist [[William G. Pollard]]&mdash;famed in the post World War II era for working on the Manhattan project and subsequently being ordained an [[Episcopal]] priest&mdash;said of [[Edward R. Murrow]]'s ''[[This I Believe]]'' that its professions of private belief by prominent figures are inadequate and "disturbing evidence of the religious bankruptcy of our time."  He said this out of apparent frustration over similar media requests to discuss his own faith.  Something of which he in fact denies to be his own.  He asserts that his faith is the common one held by any and all Christians. <ref> ''[[Physicist and Christian]]: a Dialogue Between the Communities'', [[William G.
