What are we doing? Why are there so many Bashers suddenly popping up? Why all the hate filled speech? Are we not better than that?
We seem to be reverting to the "Them vs. Us" mentality. The My Church/Beliefs are better than yours.
Aren’t we better than that?
OK. Obama invited Warren to give the Prayer. Hmmm. Why aren’t the Atheists screaming? A Prayer. How can we allow a Prayer? It’s Our Inauguration, too.
Personally, I don’t care who gives the Prayer. I don’t pay attention. I want to hear My President speak.
But I’m wandering....
I live Atheistically with a Catholic spouse. Three boys raised Catholic: one now Atheist (with an Evangelical fiancé), one Baptist, and the third goes to whatever church the current girlfriend attends. And all 6 of us voted for President Obama.
President Obama, Our President, told us that he wanted to reunite our country. How can he do that if WE continue to object to his choices? Warren is a perfect speaker. Both sides hate him. The "left" because of his views on gay marriage. The "right" because he’s going to speak at a function being hosted by someone not opposed to abortion.
I am thrilled. How do you get both sides to talk about an issue until you force them together? I never imagined that the two main talking points before the inauguration would be abortion and gay marriage.
Go for it My President. You will ALWAYS have my vote!!!!!
