Video: YouTube

Barack Obama discusses the inherent variance of religious belief and the presence of non-belief in America today. He acknowledges the critical role of reason in policy making, stating, “...I may be opposed to abortion for religious reasons…but if I seek to pass a law banning the practice I can’t simply point to the teachings of my church or invoke God’s will.” Video is edited to concentrate on the most pertinent moments.
