Much has been made about inviting Mr. Obama to participate in the Aids/HIV conference at Saddleback. The mistake Rick Warren made has nothing to do with Obama's profession or even inviting someone who takes liberal and non-biblical positions on many issues including abortion. The mistake was allowing any person no matter what their credentials or position in society (in this case it happen to Obama) to communicate the message Obama communicated.
Mr. Obama did not communicate a message of abstinence and monogamy, but a message of "safe sex." This is simply an irresponsible message. Even the FDA says the only way to prevent std's is by not having sex.
If a youth pastor invited someone to come and talk to students about avoiding std's by practicing safe sex he would probably be looking for a new job (hopefully in a new line of work) very quickly. This is not simply an issue of being biblical, it is simply being responsible.
