I’ll believe it when I see it. I saw this story before but I don’t know any Baptists who aren’t black who are supporting Obama.

I know of a number of both Baptists and Catholics who are democrat first and the majority are voting for Bama. And no they are not black.... Who did Billy Graham support the Clintons or Bob Dole??? algore or President Bush.... Has Billy Graham spoken about this election???

I don’t know much about this either, but one 82 year old lifelong Democrat acquaintance confided she just cannot vote for Obama. She did not give details.............

I keep wondering if some of these so called BA’s are liberal Christians who follow the Jim Wallis, Tony Campolo brand of socialist pacifism Christianity? If so, they are still a minority of Evangelicals. Still, any inroads hurts the GOP.

And there you have it. I don't know if this survey was broken down by race, but I suspect a lagre portion of the 23% are black BAs. Pity that race trumps even obedience to God.

I also don't believe the following:

According to Dave Kinnaman, president of The Barna Group, born-again Christians voting for Obama say they are backing the Illinois senator because they believe he will do a better job restoring America's reputation...

Christians believe this world is not our home, so why would we care how the rest of the world see us? Jesus taught that the world would hate us (Christians) because they hated Him. A true BA Christian does not look for approval from the heathens of the world.

I have a good friend who is born again and HE is voting for Obama. I called him on it and he hasn’t been very happy with me. I hope it hasn’t destroyed a good friendship but I had to speak out.
