Um...there are some that argue that he IS an unbeliever. Or that he believes in something other than what he purports to believe in.

I dunno, myself. I'm just sayin'.

But I am really glad to hear you've never dealt personally with racism. Very glad.

But that's exactly it. I realize that many "believers" out there may just be paying lip-service to the conventions. But they don't stand up for their lack of belief, and that's just as bad. D'you really think Blaggie over in Chicago is a good, upstanding member of the Serbian Orthodox church? And yet his purported Christianity was important to getting elected.
