Barack on Faith PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 05 June 2007
"When we ignore the debate about what it means to be a good Christian or Muslim or Jew; when we discuss religion only in the negative sense of where or how it should not be practiced, rather than in the positive sense of what it tells us about our obligations towards one another…others will fill the vacuum, those with the most insular views of faith, or those who cynically use religion to justify partisan ends."
– Barack Obama, Call to Renewal Keynote Address, June 2006
 

"Here's what stands out. First, Obama offers the first faith testimony I have heard from any politician that speaks honestly about the uncertainties of belief. "Faith doesn't mean that you don't have doubts," Obama declared. "You need to come to church in the first place precisely because you are first of this world, not apart from it."

"There is a concerted effort by top tier Democratic presidential candidates to reach out to religious voters. Barack Obama has a pretty neat campaign site dedicated to faith only. It’s called “Faith, Action, Change” and basically if you go to the site you can read more about what Obama believes when it comes to his Christian faith."
