Sunday’s Washington Post had a package of stories on faith and politics that looked at it from the left and the right, and from the perspective of Hispanics to potentially hell-bound voters.

Amy Sullivan, nation editor at Time magazine, wrote about being a liberal evangelical – a non-non sequitur, she says.

Beliefnet.com’s Washington editor David Kuo suggested that GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee could become the next kingmaker of the new religious right.


Samuel Rodriguez Jr., president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, wrote about Hispanic voters who are not in the pocket of either the Christian left or the Christian right.

And Joe Feuerherd, who covered the U.S. Catholic bishops and the 2004 election for National Catholic Reporter, wrote about whether voting for Sen. Barack Obama might be putting his soul at risk – at least, according to Catholic leaders.
