[Hilary] is a lifelong Methodist and self-described “praying person,” and [Obama] belongs to a church where some years ago he found himself (in his own words) “kneeling beneath that cross” in submission “to His will.” Both slip easily into the earnest, humble-of-the-earth mode of liberal God talk.
[McCain] is an Episcopalian, [Giuliana] a Catholic, but neither man, you have to think, would be caught dead in a Bible-study group or could possibly declare, à la George W. Bush, that his favorite philosopher is “Christ, because he changed my heart.” In the piety primary, the Democrats win hands down.
McCain called Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell “the agents of intolerance."

Are Clinton and Obama are more religious than McCain and Giuliana?
Well Democrats like the Clintons and Obama don't believe in God, so religion to them means nothing. The only thing they believe is that they ARE gods.

Once again McCain is dead on. But Hillary still has my vote no matter how goofy her religious views. I don't buy the kneeling beneath the cross stuff. If you really did that, why would you brag about it? Sounds like hypocrisy.

i think that we could help a candidate which will understand the liberty and privateness of all individuals....Dr. Ron Paul. Dr. Paul advocates revoking the Patriot Act, actual identity Act, and the militia Commissions Act for the clarification that they violate the form. If we don't help Dr. Paul, then we are in a position to assume extra of the comparable and it's going to purely worsen and extra intrusive as time is going on. It heavily isn't long in the previous the government. places a digicam on your mattress room to ensure you at the instant are not taking part with Al-Qaida.

How do you measure someone being religious? Even if you had some measurement, what difference would it make anyway? And who would care, and why SHOULD we care? In the meantime, Bush/Cheney (radical Christian religious fundamentalists of the meglomanical, sociopathological, psychotic kind) are escalating the Iraq war and, not being satisfied with the horrible mess they've made so far, now they're getting ready to bomb Iran. So, I don't know what difference it would make no matter how religious these candidates are. It hasn't helped us so far, why would you think it would make any difference in the future?

None of the four strike me as particularly religious. Instead they're typical politicians who coincidentally become more church going and vocal about their piety whenever it's time to campaign for election.

I'm Catholic and I pray but that doesn't mean I publicly need to advertise what I do with my religion. Those who make public their religious feelings and how much they pray, do it for votes like many Conservative Republicans. You don't need to advertise your religion to show that you believe in God. Leave those men alone.

You just moved McCain up about three steps on the ladder for me.

I highly doubt any the people you mentioned are as pious as they want you to think. Don't trust anyone in politics, just vote for the least evil.

I wouldn't count on any career politician being religious. Or even consistently principled.
