Okay With Me

I don't care if John McCain won't vote for a Muslim for president. We're at this absurd spot in our political discourse where "faith" somehow matters but the specifics of that faith do not. And even this obscures the fact that what this really means is Christian faith matters.

If religious beliefs matter, then surely it's the substance of those beliefs which matter and not simply some meaningless nod to "the importance of faith."
