Obama and McCain at Saddleback

I am sure many of you saw this program, as I did. Aside from the politicizing from both candidates, I have some problems with this type of forum. The question I have is, "should a pastor be taking this role in America's politics?" It seems to me that Rick Warren thinks a little more of his importance than he should. His job should be shepharding God's sheep. From what I have seen from Rick Warren lately, he has been much more focused on the world's problems than the word of God. Should a church building be such a place for political ventures? I don't think so. The church is for the preaching of God's word and the administration of the Sacraments, not for politics.
