"Moreover, it's wrong to ask believers to leave their religion at the door before entering the public square. Abraham Lincoln, William Jennings Bryan, Martin Luther King Jr. - indeed, the majority of great reformers in American history - were not only motivated by faith, they also used religious language to argue for their cause. To say men and women should not inject their "personal morality" into policy debates is a practical absurdity; our law is by definition a codification of morality." Barak Obama, USA Today, 7/10/2006 So? There's no conflict in the two statements. Obama isn't shoveling religion, and neither did Lincoln or King. Bryan, of course, did. Again, I am blinded by your ability to rationalize. It's an incredible talent - you missed your calling, you should have taken up the religious life. Probably would be Pope by now if you had been Catholic. :) Reggie has the same talent. Perhaps the 2 of them could go into politics. ;-) Reggie has too wide a stance. |
