Obama Religious Reps Bow Out of Debate with McCain Team

Your post repeats FRC's claims but leaves out crucial information, which is that Rob Schenck is an extremist who has repeatedly maligned Obama's Christian faith - there's no reason for the Obama campaign to give him credibility or to expect that he would have played the role of a fair moderator. Reporting on the event - see http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_fundamentalist_092408 -- where Obama was compared to Hitler - make it clear that the campaign made a wise choice.

Let's see...McCain's campaign cancels a debate during a national crisis and he is a leader. Obama's campaign cancels a debate during a national crisis and he is considered afraid of address the questions of conservatives.

I'd call the FRC hypocrites, but the hypocrite union would sue me for defaming their good name.

"Why would the Democrats be afraid to meet the challenges regarding a personal faith in Jesus Christ?" Perhaps because this forum is not about personal faith but religious intolerance, rigidity and intransigence.
Unfortunately, the FRC "debate" was not that at all but an open opportunity for pride exceeding faith.
My sincere prayer is that the discussion of faith becomes an open, frank, and mature exchange concerning the Christian faith espoused by both candidates. Unfortunately, the “debate” also excludes the relevant religious milieu of this nation. We cannot hold a discussion only of Christian faith. This is a nation of many faiths and many approaches to God and Heaven. We as Christians consider our means the only path. We know that others consider their paths equally valid. Do we intend to speak for God? Has someone in the FRC had a revelation from God?
Pray, please, that we discern our place in the world with a strong faith in good and honesty and true convictions rather than exploitive and demoralizing diatribes about the “right” way to Heaven.

Elite politicians, including presidential candidate Barack Obama, are trying to limit access to on-demand, short term financial assistance in America. Some cities and towns are even placing restrictions on where these legitimate payday loan companies can establish their businesses. Even worse, several states including Georgia and North Carolina have successfully imposed complete bans on the payday loan industry, and several more states are following in their footsteps. Nationwide, American citizens are struggling to have their voices heard. They want to fight legislation that would wipe out the payday loan industry in the United State. Obama, and many other misled political officials, are advocating for an all-out ban of the payday loan industry for the sake of personal political gain. Their desire to eliminate the payday loan industry holds no regard for the people who need financial help in this depressed economy.
