his Old Testament references were just dumb. yes, they're in the Bible, but in a hugely different context which is not worth discussing here in morbius but the important thing is: to a Christian, New Testament teachings replace Old Testament teachings. why make an example out of the Old Testament? you won't reach any Christians.

but Obama's correct that accusing him of anything theological is taking things too far. from what i can see all he's doing is using bad examples to support his idea that a strictly Biblical view is not the political way to go. trust a well-known evangelical to blow it out of proportion by doing so he allows Obama to argue back (which he did).
