The post preceding this one showed the very commendable ability of Abraham Lincoln to interpret the times through the lens of scripture. He clearly knew and believed the Bible and had no problem using it as a source for decision making.
By extreme contrast, notice what happens when an unbeliever (President Obama) takes his very poor understanding of scripture and suggests the Bible has no place in public policy.
I think his mocking attitude toward the Bible says as much as his words. Like a true pragmatist, he will do what is right in his own eyes and use that as the lens for evaluating everything else - including the Bible!
