Clinton on "Interreligious Understanding"

Quote of the Day: Former President Bill Clinton

"For people in America who are a part of my political tradition, our great sin has often been ignoring religion or denying its power or refusing to engage it because it seemed hostile to us. For ... the so-called Christian right and its allies, their great sin has been believing they were in full possession of the truth."

-- Former President Bill Clinton, speaking as he accepted an award from the Tanenbaum Center for Interreligious Understanding on Thursday (June 15) in New York. He was quoted by the Associated Press.
