Oh I beg to differ, it's just as relevant today as asking how Obama sat in Jeremiah Wright's church for 20 years. I need to know if my president believes in magical underpants. It is a fair question.
If he wears the magic underpants, will he effectively defend Israel? If so, then maybe he should have a Hanes factory dedicated to him. Kind of joking, but really things need to be seen in perspective. What would we do with a Jewish candidate for president? We might want to think that one out in advance.
Wright preached Marxism, hatred of whites, hatred of Jews, hatred of America and liberation theology. It is a dangerous religion just as islam is and both are antithetical to Western values in general and American values in particular. The Mormon religion preaches none of those things and is none of those things.
I find the theology and practices of many religions to be goofy and ridiculous, but as long as they're not dangerous, I don't care.
