15 facts about Mr. Rogers

Fred Rogers (yes, that Mr. Rogers) apparently was much the same whether on or off screen.  This is my favorite line from the article:

Whenever he was asked to castigate non-Christians or gays for their differing beliefs, he would instead face them and say, with sincerity, “God loves you just the way you are.” Often this provoked ire from fundamentalists.

If only more people would be like Mr. Rogers.
