http://www.newsweek.com/id/180107 This is an interesting article about why so many young evangelicals voted for Obama.
I have to say that the author is pretty much right on.
A lot of the reasons he gives, and the guy in the article give, are exactly why I picked Obama over Mccain.
(not all, for sure, but the reasons why I defected from the standard "Christian" idea of voting strictly on abortion and gay marriage is definitely there)
Some of the reasons why I love the Vineyard so much are also written into this article - it is pretty much the opposite of the church the guy describes as having grown up in, and more about love, social justice, the Bible.
