What Does Hillary Believe?

She is in lockstep with the United Methodist Church on almost all issues, says Paul Kengor, author of God and Hillary Clinton.

One way you can tell about someone's personal religious values is how they raise their kids. Do we know anything about Chelsea's faith?

I would say there is another indication of Hillary's faith. She raised a Christian daughter. She saw to it that her daughter went to Bible study and youth ministry. They did want Chelsea to make her own choice of denomination. They allowed her to pick between her father's Baptist faith and her mother's Methodist. She tried Bill's for a little bit. In the end, she felt more comfortable as a Methodist. Apparently, Hillary was happy with that decision.

When we risk the mother's life? What mother would choose her own life over that of her baby? Any group of people can call themselves Christians. True Christians gladly would lay down their lives for another, how much more their own child. Hillary like Obama and the entire socialist movement despise religion and Christianity in particular. To quote their idol.."religion is the opiate of the masses"... "They profess me with their mouths but their hearts are far from me". The closer one draws to the abortion clinic I'd wager the further their hearts are from God.

Me thinks they protest too much. I thought the article was pretty generous toward Hillary.

Was this article a quota? I think some of the comments are written better than the article itslef. The majority of the issues that were brought up in the article have so much to do WITH the getting elected, but her term swivels on basic aspects that every president DEALS with. I am glad people can name the sins and judge so freely, but when it comes down to the base of every belief we are humans. Welcome to America land of the free and home of the brave, but realize we are FREE. Sometimes we want to be represented by a person, and not just a figure head. Isn't that the true issue in today's society. Entirety is an overused word, just think Sola Fide!
