Obama ... We Need to Overcome Our Religious Convictions?

[Bonzi]

Speaking in the Rose Garden shortly after the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage was announced, Obama stated that the progressives in society needs to ‘help’ those with deeply held religious beliefs overcome their convictions.

I did not listen to the speech, but have seen this here and there on the internet. Although, not on any of the major news agencies/papers (CNN,FOX, Washington Post, NY Times etc.)

What are your thoughts on his statement above? Is it misquoted?

I am inclined to believe there are a lot more words accompanying that "quote" if he ever said that at all. Google is no help.

I didn't attack her

Only cautioned against attacking a quote that appears to be fake or out of context

A religious belief is not necessarily a good belief.

Time to stop letting an ancient book of myths and fairy tales run your life and join the 21st century.

 

[Moonglow]

Religious people have no problem telling others about their whey of life. They are in yer face protagonist/propagandist that condemn people to Hell they don't even know..So if it's good enough for the geese, it's good enough fore the gander....

I'm too lazy to listen to the speech and can't find it on an internet search.
Plus, I wasn't attacking it.
