From The Amen Corner

Tell it, Brother Terrance -

Unless he’s going to actually govern, Jesus is not relevant to the presidential race. Nor is what the candidates think of him , or if they think of him at all, since their religious beliefs shouldn’t be the basis of public policy. It doesn’t matter whether a candidate believes in Jesus any more than it does whether he/she believes in leprechauns.

It doesn’t matter whether Obama believes in Jesus or not. It matters that it matters. And it matters that that doesn’t matter.

On a related note — I swear to god, I am going to lose it if one more uberconservative religious family member or acquaintance sends me that ludicrous “Obama Is A Radical Muslim” email.
