Wright's church. This is not the only topic by far by far what Rev. Wright preaches. The love, beauty and strength of Rev. Wright's black Christian congregation and church activities are well known. That the Obamas are part of such a loving congregation is a good thing. I have been part of fundemental baptist Churchs where the pasters preached on topics that would be considered inflammatory, but most of what they preached was not. Listening to the Obamas you would not think them racist. You would, however, hear that they are very much for helping the poor and disadvantaged. That is a theme that all of us can relate to. That is the most basic Christian theme. I am not bothered at all by Senator Obama’s membership in Rev. Wright’s church. This is not the only topic by far by far what Rev. Wright preaches.

Wright’s views, then why have you been a member of the congregation for over 20 years?” If I didn’t have the same views as the church that I attend, then why would I be a member there? If in fact he does not share the same views as the congregation of Rev. Wright does, then his membership there must be for another reason.
