Even when hit between the eyes with the truth of Obama's extreme views on abortion, he still has much of the black Christian vote. I am amazed at the 'kill the messenger' anger at me from fellow black Christians for bringing up the subject. It is as if putting a black in the White House in 2008 trumps morality and Christian values. Consider the sin of idolatry of race. In Illinois, when a baby is born alive surviving abortion, it STILL has no right to life. Some infants are denied medical assistance and left to die. One death took almost 8 hours. A nurse recalls rocking a baby for 40 minutes until it passed. Legislation was attempted tochange this evil. Apparently this is not the kind of change Mr. Candidate of Change has in mind. With Obama's help, the legislation to protect the lives of newborns died. So, how do you black Christians square this with your hearts, minds and God to still vote Obama? Lloyd Marcus
pigment over principle
The ‘Church’ that Obama has belonged to, preaches a very radical racist ‘Christianity’ call Black Liberation Theology. I don’t see how any mainstream Christian could support a man whose theology professes whites are evil oppressors of blacks and must be destroyed. How Obama even gets above 10% of the vote is beyond me.
“If people are that desperate to die, then so be it.”
Analogous to inviting members of the ROP to live among us.
Concur w/ Kingattax’ “Pigment over principle” sentiment and am amazed that you’re amazed, LloydMarcus. Dare I say that many of the black Christians I’ve met seem to be black first and Christian after?
This is has truly been a seperation of the “sheep and the goats”.
It is not just blacks but a lot of “christians” in general so called leaders whom others have looked to for guidance.
There will be a MUCH stronger judgement for them.
And yes, we people are always prone to idolatry (thus the First Epistle of John ending with his admonishment to Believers: "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen".) - of which allegiance to skin color is but another version of the same sin...
We desire to come together, not as Republicans, not as Christians, not as principled Americans, but simply as black folk in support of Baraq Ameriqa, that Michelle Obama may temporarily retain pride in her country.
O’Bama is NOT a Christian, he’s a Marxist. The “Christian Gospel terminology” is just used to motivate true Christians towards his political views. God, open the eyes of true Christians to what is going on!
Francis Schaeffer said this would happen 10 years ago.
Christians, everywhere, Don’t be fooled!!!
We want a toasted president
and that is all we care,
Justice of History demands it,
We want short black curly hair!
His head must always please us
But brains are optional too,
We care not if his wife is
like a hopping kangaroo!
O-Oh-Bama, O-Oh-Bama,
We want you now for president
We are the same color now as you!
It’s about LOVE for my country, NOT hate for Obama
A blogger wrote about me traveling with Our Country Deserves Better PAC on a national Stop Obama tour. The blogger said, ‘They hate Obama. Unable to speak for anyone else, I do NOT hate Obama. I’m a Christian and don’t hate anyone. I simply believe Obama is horribly wrong for our country. My opposition in based in LOVE for my country, not hate.
FYI: The grueling Stop Obama tour is 35 rallies in two weeks. Lord give me strength. (smile)
