Rick Warren's Civil Forum

"I don't think it's appropriate for pastors to endorse." - Pastor Rick Warren

Amen to that. :)

I've only just started to watch Rick Warren's forum with Senators Obama and McCain on CNN.com, but I just loved some of the things Rick Warren said during an interview in CNN's Situation Room. His interviewer, Suzanne Malveaux, asked several questions attempting to get an endorsement (or a "preference") out of Mr. Warren, but he kept deflecting.

Malveaux: "Do you see either one of these candidates as having kinda that 'whole-life' agenda that you talk about?"
Warren: "We'll sure find out."

I can tell I'm going to enjoy this. :)

EDIT: I've been asked, so I'll give my brief opinion on the forum.

While I definitely enjoyed the whole of the forum, it honestly didn't do much to change my opinions on either of the candidates. I agree with some of the things both of them said, but at the same time I disagreed with several things they each said. Watching it was definitely worth it, though; it was interesting to hear their opinions on important issues. I'm glad Rick Warren decided to bring them to his church and ask them hard questions; it was quite educational.
