Although not intended to be a political blog, I can't help but comment on the audacity and compromised judgment of Barack Obama, if what he is quoted as saying is accurate.
Tell me he was misquoted, but in today's USA Today Opinion Section Obama in defining sin is quoted as saying, sin is "being out of alignment with my values." Did he really say that? I know he talks of audacity, but really. This is beyond the pale, that he could define sin in such a manner, and qualify himself as the arbiter and judge of what is sin. It is not mine to judge, for people can think and believe what they will. Even so, it is an issue of pride beyond measure and extremely dangerous for anyone to assume such a position. Maybe he meant to say that sin is being out of alignment with Christ's values, that gets him closer, but he didn't. America cannot, should not and hopefully will not elect any individual who appoints himself as such.

I too know we shouldn't judge but to be so full of oneself is not a very good characteristic to be the president of the US.

I think he meant that everyone should choose their own values, and to sin is to be out of alignment with ones own values. That must be why he agrees with murder (through abortion).
Yikes!
By Obama's measure, Jeffery Dahlmer didn't sin - yes, it is frightening how man has justified and rationalized his humanistic and natural man tendencies. And to have him stand for the highest position of leadership in the United States with such judgment is very scary.
