If you aren't seen as a Christian you aren't going to get elected to most national positions, let alone president. Therefore even politicians who have never been especially religious feel like they have to emphasis their strong faith.<br /><br />Kelly,<br /><br />I don't know if he's an agnostic, but from what I've read of him he's never seemed to be in any way devoutly religious. I suspect his membership in Rev. Wright's church was primarily for political purposes, to shore up his base of support and to connect with the community.UNRRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17093711439992855042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1138570918413841323.post-9424753690902503172011-01-03T20:11:38.581-05:002011-01-03T20:11:38.581-05:00So I'm not the only one who thinks Obama is mo...So I'm not the only one who thinks Obama is more of an agnostic.
