Obama vs. Dobson

This article was recently posted on CNN. While the purpose is to demonstrate that Dr. Dobson isn't a fan of Barack Obama, I found the text on scripture particularly fascinating.

"Which passages of scripture should guide our public policy?" Obama asked in the speech. "Should we go with Leviticus, which suggests slavery is OK and that eating shellfish is an abomination? Or we could go with Deuteronomy, which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith? Or should we just stick to the Sermon on the Mount?

"So before we get carried away, let's read our Bible now," Obama said, to cheers. "Folks haven't been reading their Bible."

He also called Jesus' Sermon on the Mount "a passage that is so radical that it's doubtful that our Defense Department would survive its application."

Bravo! I couldn't have said it better myself. Straight out of a Glen Stassen class.
