Reverend Veazey will discuss how religion shapes candidates' views on access to abortion, comprehensive sexuality education, and family planning. "The press and some politicians present the public with a misleading view: either religious and pro-life OR secular and pro-choice. But the positions of both Senator Obama and Senator McCain are more complex than that," said Reverend Veazey.
