There was an imam
There was a priest
and a rabbi on a plane
And there was only one parachute.
What does it mean to live a moral life?
I am motivated by a vision
which exists in all of the great religions,
in Christianity, in Judaism, in Islam and Buddhism
and other religions.
So in everything,
do to others
what you would have them do to you.
Faith for me is really about a sense of
beloved community, about compassion.
Bernie resonates beyond his words.
His demeanor, his actions,
his, um, his commitment.
I am not a theologian.
I am not an expert on the Bible.
I am just a United States senator
from the small state of Vermont.
But, we are living in a nation
and in a world
which worships
not love of brothers and sisters,
not love of the poor and the sick,
but worships the acquisition of money.
I do not believe
that is the country we should be living in.
Senator Sanders' call for democratic socialism
resonates with my own faith tradition.
His faith requires an understanding and a recognition
that we're all created in the image of God.
When you treat people in a way that's inconsistent with that,
I think that you've surrendered your faith.
Amos 5:24 -
But let Justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream.
Treating all people,
no matter their race, their color, their stature in life
with respect and with dignity.
