Might be tough to read such language for a whole (and long) book, I  
suppose. Still, I think Fred Rogers was a real bodhisattva. Here's his  
Wikipedia entry, for those who don't know him (probably everyone  
outside the US): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Rogers

I didn't know he was a minister. That goes to show the gentle nature  
of his spirituality. An incarnation of Avalokiteśvara?
