Rick Warren is no Billy Graham

Rick Warren hugs friend Barack Obama
Last August I wrote a column critical of Rick Warren’s decision to host a presidential candidate forum at his Saddleback Church.
My reasoning then was that America’s crisis is moral ambiguity. I argued that Pastor Warren would only contribute to this ambiguity by hosting candidates with opposing views on issues such as abortion and homosexuality and presenting himself as a neutral moderator.
Only Barack Obama would gain, I felt, being showcased as an acceptable candidate by one of the nation’s best-known evangelical pastors. If John McCain wanted to clarify his social conservative credentials, he didn’t need to go to Rick Warren’s church with Barack Obama to do it.
