Hey if you were running for presidency and this lil mishap surfaced, wouldnt you denounce it? and just because that is the case doesnt say its not what Obama truly believes..I mean he continued to attend the church services for 20 years under this mans somewhat spiritual dictatorship. Would you continue to attend that church if you did not inherently believe what your pastor discerns as Christianity? not me..I would move on and find what I am looking for. Nothing is perfect understand..but you can discern what is evil and what is good for the most part..this is why its hard for me to believe otherwise with Obama. Had the media make light of his situation and say he attended that church for two years only..then de-parted..well that I can almost grasp..although two years is even so a long term to be lead by such madness..but granted, I may give Obama the benefit of the doubt then..but 20 years yaaarrgg, thats kind of scary..

Well that's a valid point. We can look at it another way as well though. Since Obama was at the church for 20 years, maybe there is more positive substance to his pastor than how he's been negatively portrayed in these 30 second sound snippets?

In Hinduism I believe there is a concept of 'namaste,' where the higher part of one person respects and appreciates the higher part of another person ... not reducing them down the sum of their greatest fears and irrationalities.

True Wright is paranoid with respect to the government, but is that *all* he is?
