I don’t usually recommend skipping church, but the less time he spends in HIS church, the better. lol

"Because they have a great deal of respect for places of worship, they do not want to draw unwelcome or inappropriate attention to a church not used to the attention their attendance would draw," Well gosh, not drawing attention to a church should definitely trump communion with God. Going to the gym for self worship kinda works it out of your system, I guess. typical for this narcissist.

His excuse is that he doesn’t want to bring a crowd?????? LOLOL
After the campaign he just had?
Besides, BO just used church as a political base and didn’t really listen to what Wright said, or so he says.

Reagan wasn't a very devout churchgoer (although he was a believing Christian), neither was Lincoln (ditto). Jefferson never went to church at all for services during his presidency.
I don't care what he does in his personal Sunday time. I am more concerned with what he does as President.

So — he uses the church when he needs it, and ignores it when it is no longer useful. He reached out to Christianity when he felt it would be useful and probably only because it would be useful. What exactly does he believe in?

He choose Wright’s church because it was the closest thing he could find to Islam.

But not concerned about the impact their large retinue may have on other exercisers at the gym......

Yeah, I love that version of “logic.” Kind of like “I wouldn’t join any club that would have me as a member.”

“They do not want to draw unwelcome or inappropriate attention to a church not used to the attention their attendance would draw...”
Yeah, right. And he said he didn’t join the military because the Vietnam War was over and there was no conflict going at the time. Not buying.

Apparently, his presense would be considered a disruption in the House of the Lord, but his presense in a gymnasium is no problem.
I wonder why Obama thinks he would disrupt the Lord’s Worship so much?
