51. Hmm
Edited on Wed Aug-19-09 11:34 PM by JonQ
so religious leaders being invited by a sitting president to spread his word.

I wonder, if bush had done the same, to "spread the truth" regarding the war in iraq, ie inviting religious leaders to give them their talking points so they could sell it to their congregations, would that have been ok? Or would it have been a sign of creeping fascism?

Call me old fashioned, but I favor a clear separation between religion and government.
