Politicians? Manipulate?
22 October 2004
Christian theologian and author, Tom Beaudoin, doesn't want to hear any more about candidates' personal faith. "Today a public confession of faith by a presidential candidate is so deeply enmeshed in the calculating politics of manipulation that it simply should not be believed. Anyone who thinks a modern major-party candidate can talk about faith in a way that is not seen as angling for some political advantage, some movement in the polls, is asking the impossible."
