Faith, Politics and the Bush White House

In an election loaded with vitriol and animosity, it is prudent to carefully select that which we put forward into the public forum regarding points of difference. More unites us as Americans than what we allow to divide us. Religion is one such issue. Amy Goodman’s Democracy Now on-line radio interviewed two people who have spent time studying the Bush White House and the role religion plays within it. The 30 minute discussion is even handed and does not make fun of those who hold religious beliefs. It ask questions that I, as a non-traditional Christian, have regarding people who claim to “hear” God speaking to them and who see their policies as being Divinely ordained. The interview can be heard in depth by clicking here.
