Obama Attends Prayer Breakfast, Orders Review Of Faith-Based Groups
Obama Attends Prayer Breakfast, Orders Review Of Faith-Based Groups: "President Barack Obama said Thursday he will establish a White House office of faith-based initiatives that will show no favoritism to any religious group and adhere to the strict separation of church and state.
Addressing the National Prayer Breakfast, Obama spoke of how faith has often been a divisive tool, responsible for war and prejudice. But, he said, 'there is no religion whose central tenet is hate. There is no God who condones taking the life of an innocent human being,' and all religions teach people to love and care for one another. That is the common ground underlying his faith-based office, he said."
