A strong case can be made for religious leaders to speak out on political issues.

From the beginning, there have been some religious leaders who greeted the funding of faith-based social services by government with ambivalence.

I think where political issues invade moral situations, spiritual leaders have to speak out.

As the political leaders of Europe meet to save the euro and European Union, so should religious leaders.

And we've got to ask ourselves some very serious questions as to whether or not certain religious leaders, in terms of raising money - I hate to bring this up - are pushing hot buttons.

Religious leaders are supposed to be that and he seems like a decent-looking guy.
