Link: Evangelical? Obama's faith too complex for simple label

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Cathleen Falsani :: Evangelical? Obama's faith too complex for simple label

The more I hear about Obama, the more I like him. I'm not American, but I hope he becomes president. And if he does, I hope he stays as humble and honest as he apparently is.

I highly recommend giving Obama's "Call to Renewal Keynote" a listen. It's far and away the most reasoned and honest look at the role of religion in politics that I've heard in a very long time.

Thanks for that, Jason - and please forgive my delay in replying. Had a listen to that speech on a nice long walk. Very well-reasoned, and I particularly like his story of the letter from the evangelical doctor - also mentioned in the Time Magazine article about him. I think that will be Obama's defining story. It certainly helps equate him with fair mindedness.
