  • Faithless, Faith-Based Initiatives

    By Father Jonathan Morris FOX News Religion Contributor It is not the place of the pastor or priest to tell anyone who to vote for, but when politicians propose policy involving faith and morality, clergy have not only the right, but also the special obligation to put these proposals to the test.

    AFTER he became notorious as the man who urged God to damn America, Jeremiah Wright claims he wrestled with two impulses. The first was to heed the proverb: “It is better to be quiet and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.” The second was to “come across...

  • Crises of Faith: McCain and Obama

    Both Barack Obama and John McCain have problems with religion . FEW Democrats have seemed more comfortable talking about God than Barack Obama has.

  • McCain Picks Sarah Palin as Running Mate

    McCain picks Sarah Palin to be his running mate. It's an interesting pick. My first thought is that one reason she may have been chosen is an attempt to get the disenfranchised Hillary Clinton voters who've said they'd vote for McCain before they'd vote for Obama. The biggest challenge...

  • Obama Delivers Speech in Denver

    I just watched Obama's speech (at article link above). A few thoughts ... What a crowd! What weather!

  • Palin Speaks at the Republican National Convention

    Palin certainly showed that she was a very good communicator tonight. It'll be interesting to see what impact she had on listeners/voters. As a side note, I can't imagine (even from a mental, emotional, physical perspective) going from being a mayor of a small town to governor of a somewhat isolated...

  • Re: Ban on a type of prayer in school allowed to stand

    If we follow the guidelines set forth by the consitution in section 9524 of the ESEA act of 1965, as amended by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 in act of Civil Disobedience could be as simple as asking, in the classroom, "for a moment of silence to find guidance." Granted I would rather...

  • Re: Invocation for Barack Obama...

    This is going to anger a lot of people, both conservative and liberal... AND I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW HAPPY THAT MAKES ME! As someone who WAY too often finds himself on the "wrong" side of an issue with whoever I'm talking to (liberal or conservative), I'm thrilled to think that we...
