At least one thing would be good, since I really do think you need to support an opinion that is that strong. Jimmy has always been way Christian, but generally in an inoffensive way (to me, anyway- I've never felt threatened by his brand of Christianity).

I like this:

"Blurring the line between church and state threatens civil liberties and privacy, says former President Jimmy Carter. That's the case he makes in his new book, Our Endangered Values: America's Moral Crisis, which draws on Carter's experiences as a president and a Christian."

and this:

"Jimmy Carter is a conservative Democrat. He is also an evangelical Christian. He is proud of his faith. It is integral to who he is. He is also a hero of civil and human rights. He fiercly supports the separation of church and state. And he opposes the fundamentalist enforcers who have taken over the Southern Baptist Convention. In fact he left the SBC out of principle. Among other things, he opposes the SBC insistence on the subordination of women, and the banning of women from positions of leadership in the denomination. "

and a whole lot more. I could give you a lot of quotes showing why I like President Carter.
