Maybe he is religious, but it is odd that a bright guy with an LLD from Harvard would be attracted to this church. Perhaps the religious scales can tip further to one side than the Scales of Justice?
As far as I know, Obama has a JD from Harvard.
Why would it be odd that a Harvard grad would go to Trinity UCC?
I seldom use wikipedia as a source but it was a fast way of getting Dr Wright's credentials:
In 1959, Wright entered Virginia Union University, a historically black university, but became disenchanted and left in 1961.[3] He then joined the United States Marine Corps and later transferred to the United States Navy where he worked as a cardiopulmonary technician. Wright then enrolled at Howard University, where he received a bachelor's degree in 1968 and a Master’s degree in English in 1969. In 1975, he earned an additional Master’s degree from the University of Chicago Divinity School, and a Doctor of Ministry degree from United Theological Seminary in 1990 where he studied under Samuel DeWitt Proctor. He also has eight honorary doctorate degrees and has taught courses at many seminaries and universities in the nation.
The man is a scholar and published author.

Obama does have JD.
Dr. Wright should be educated enough to know that the government did not invent the AIDS virus and put drugs on American streets. I suppose that one has to conclude that Wright used these allegations to further a sense of victimization in his audience. That's not admirable.
