Emma Green gives the subject a sympathetic touch in Hillary Wants to Preach. Or more to the point, she wants to preach to us. It seems like a natural progression, after all, she was defeated by a basket of deplorables, so the least she could do is try as she might to redeem them.
A less sympathetic take on it comes from Ben Shapiro in Pastor Hillary Wants to Preach to You wherein he reminds us of our typical skepticism of pious progressives who use religion for political purposes. An even less sympathetic take comes from Scott McKay in Our Sunday Visitor, The Church Lady.
OK, we could bash Hillary's dalliance with religion until the lambs come home. But it brings to mind another converted sinner, Chuck Colson. He was one of Nixon's cronies who actually did time in the slammer for crimes committed in the Watergate matter. He underwent a jailhouse conversion and went on to found The Prison Fellowship which actually does some real good in the world. Hillary Clinton would do well to emulate Mr. Colson.
