I don’t believe that Obama is any sort of devout Christian. Nor do I believe that he understands Christianity. Here’s why:

When he has spoken about his faith, he says he was drawn to Christianity as an adult. He said that he was drawn by tenets of Christianity such as our being our brother’s keeper, and our sister’s keeper.

Obama completely misunderstands and misrepresents the Bible story in which Cain mockingly asks God “am I my brother’s keeper”, after Cain killed Abel and God asked him where his brother was.

So, to me, for Obama to cite as his inspiration for Christianity a completely distorted version of a Bible story, in which he has missed the point of that story altogether, makes me wonder how much of Christian theology he really understands.

Anyone else notice that when Obama has said “Koran”, that he pronounces it with an Arabic inflection in the voice?

Not saying that this proves he’s really Muslim, but I do question the depth of his Christian faith. And I think he might be more familiar with Islam that Christianity, whether he considers himself Muslim or not.

He hasn't a clue that that was Cain's "smart ass" answer to God's question.

I personally feel a sadness when I see someone saying "many ways to God", there's one way and when someone rejects that one way, they are hell bound and I don't wish that on anyone - not even Obama, as much as everything about him disgusts me. I feel the same about Romney too.

There's a youtube video splicing together occasions where BO talked about the Koran. In every case, he called it "the holy Koran." What Christian would refer to the Koran as holy? The Koran and the Bible cannot both be holy.

I hope you will read and heed the counsel of fellow Freepers who write about the atoning blood of Christ the Lord. Dependence on this Atonement of Christ for you, and your belief that God raised Jesus Christ from the dead, is the only measure of a person’s Christianity, according to Scripture. I am praying for you.

he may have been drawn by tenets of “being his brothers keeper”, but he hasn't been a keeper of any of his own family relations - brothers, mothers, grannies, aunts or other of his african relatives living in poverty or on on welfare here and abroad

I think he thinks Jesus meant the government (obama the great) should take care of his brothers and we should give him $4 trillion borrowed and printed dollars a year to pay for it

Yes, if you combine that with his actual words, “my muslim faith” during the campaign interview with George S., which George had to correct for him, “you mean your Christian faith.” That statement revealed to me unquestionably he is a muslim. Not one Christian on earth would ever say “my muslim faith” accidently. I just don’t think it’s possible to do it.
