GG:
Do you believe in sin?
OBAMA:
Yes.
GG:
What is sin?
OBAMA:
Being out of alignment with my values.
I don't know about you, dear reader, but the concept of sin in Christianity is the opposite of what Obama says. Sin is being out of alignment with God's values, not being out of alignment with human values. Being out of alignment with human values is a sin against secular humanism, not Christianity.
That is, unless Obama is claiming to be the Second Coming, in which case, sin would be a lack of alignment with Obama-values.

You just don't get it because your narrow view of Christianity is based on an outdated literal interpretation of the Bible - and probably the Constitution as well. Get with the times.
OT, thought this would be of interest to you
I forgot, is sarcasm supposed to be in italics or bold?
Weasel, you know as well as I do that there are hard times indeed to be a Consitutional as well as a religious Strict Interpretationist. AKA a dreaded "Fundamentalist" (ptui!)
Sure sin is being out of alignment with God's values, .
However, do we really understand God's values? What Jesus really stood for?
Take the Jesus Test at http://www.sentforlife.com/jesus.html and see if you know him.
