Reply #40: As a person targeted by Obama's religious dogmas [View All]

The very idea of splitting hairs and parsing words and 'spinning' in his own favor is a thing greatly condemned by the religion he claims is so dear to him. Those of his faith, especially those who would proclaim that faith in the public square in judgment of others, are instructed to speak in painstakingly clear, direct terms, avoiding even the possibility that you might be misunderstood, and seem to be lying.
So it gets very difficult to endure the lecturing about how GLBT people are not meeting the standards of a religion he himself does not even attempt to practice. Such a hypocritical and self serving use of sacred things and of the truth are not aspects of character I find to be indicative of a good person, in a real and meaningful sense.
One who would partner up with McClurkin and Warren has no wiggle room in terms of honesty and morality around truth. He needs to live his faith scrupulously or shut the fuck up about the lives of others.
