Oh, BTW the snopes link states Status:True. So stating that the quote is not true comes from where? It is acknowledged to be a paraphrase, and extracted somewhat from context (although the implications of each of the statements is probably correctly identified).

Try reading and comprehending the entire Snopes article. Snopes says exactly what is true and most of the initially posted anecdote is patently false. Snopes quote of Powell does not support the tone, context or response that the posted anecdote relates. Snopes is true in its quote and the response, the anecdote and its intention is completely false.
All that is true in the original anecdote is the partial quote from Powell. All the remaining is false, and yes I am not the only one who has found Snopes to be less than completely correct in their analysis. Why don’t you try some other sites to gage the response to Powell as well? Single source, again? I thought that was the sole territory of the religious.
You obviously had problems with research papers in college.
