Even If It's Wrong: Barack Obama, Religious Faith, and Same-Sex Marriage


Check out this post on Greta Christina's Blog. In many ways I like many of Obama's ideas, especially his new call for universal health care. However, there's something about him that makes me not totally trust that he won't sell out gay American's based on one set of religious beliefs, thus making him not much different than the late Jerry Falwell. As Greta Christina notes, some of the worse abuses and genocides throughout history have been based on strongly held religious beliefs, many of which ultimately turned out to be wrong or simply based on bigotry. http://gretachristina.typepad.com/greta_christinas_weblog/2007/05/even_if_its_wro.html
