Clark's spiritual journey.

It seems Clark has a quite varied religious background, but one he is willing to talk about quite openly about. This may help him in the election.

No really hard questions about how his faith affects his politics and the cultural wars problems. This just is an interview where Clark describes his personal religious history.

'I'm Spiritual. I'm Religious. I'm a Good Christian.' http://www.Beliefnet.com/frameset.a...ry_13636_1.html

Niebuhr thought that sustained moral energy in politics depended on religion's power to mobilize reason along with self-transcending love. The prophetic tradition, meanwhile, gave Jews and Christians some protection against the temptation to identify their social causes with God's will. Lincoln's second inaugural address expressed the prophetic insight, "The almighty has His own purposes."
