Since taking office, President Barack Obama has raised eyebrows by mixing faith and politics in a way that has dismayed some of his secular supporters.
The Advisory Council on Faith-Based and neighborhood Partnerships was founded via executive order on Feb 5 to be a new office of the executive branch.
Caroline Fredrickson, . . . described Obama as "heading into uncharted and dangerous waters".

Is adding a little Godliness to the nation so terrible, in comparison to all the dirty deeds done by Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfield while they were running the show?

Even as an atheist, I can see that religious-based organizations do a great job in helping the people in need in this country.
I don't care if people practice their religion, as long as any religion as well as atheism can be represented. Obama is the first president to mention non-believers in his Inaugural speech.
When Obama starts a war or makes other policy decisions because "God spoke to him and told him to", then I will absolutely change my mind and come down on him HARD.

He is heading the path of trying to appeased the part of the population that were in the religious groups that gave him the vote. the Southern Baptist groups.
I don't agree with religion within government
For the first time since Obama took the presidential seat I am starting to get very worry about what he is been doing. by executive order.
Obama; socialism; biggest government in history; creating jobs for America.
but had he eaten today? No, he hadn't. Off I went to the grocery store putting together a package of a variety of food and water... I saw a very old man, sitting on the curb,
to further help my fellow man, even though I'm a bit of a heathen.
