Open Left

It seems fair game enough to question the nature of others's faith, given

that Jesus did; I wouldn't think that it's the same as suggesting one's faith is a "pretense." Faith, after all, should demand inquiry. I tend to think Obama's comment r.e. the Special Olympics, while widely condoned within the netroots, was in fact quite revelatory. Either you believe some individuals are inherently more worthwhile or you don't. It's no small matter. I call that un-Christian; while, as pointed out above, many, perhaps a majority, would not.
