Just because he is not backing down from his faith doesn't mean that he's lashing out at another.

That's nice. It did anger me though. I have no problem with a president having whatever religious views he wants in his personal life, but I definitely have a problem with him injecting these views into something he is saying in an official capacity, especially when part of the speech he is making involves an attempt at saying that we are not involved in a religious war.
