I had never read the interview and the only thing that was put out was the quote about lusting in his heart and adultery. The link to the interview is received by me with thanks. I see that President Carter is now the same caring thoughtful man he has been his whole life. I have saved the interview to my bookmarks because it is so good to read how a person can be on the right road politically through the guidance of his Christian faith. It is amazing that so many are filled with hatred and are judgemental claim to be doing the same. Mr. Carter is a role model for any to follow whether they are theists, atheists or agnostics. Franklin Graham etal are the antithesis of Christ, Buddha and Gandhi.

Rant over- Just read the interview, it is very good.
