President-elect Barack Obama has yet to attend church services since winning the White House earlier this month, a departure from the example of his two immediate predecessors.
On the three Sundays since his election, Obama has instead used his free time to get in workouts at a Chicago gym.
Asked about the president-elect's decision to not attend church, a transition aide noted that the Obamas valued their faith experience in Chicago but were concerned about the impact their large retinue may have on other parishioners.
"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," said the aide.
Both President-elect George W. Bush and President-elect Bill Clinton managed to attend church in the weeks after they were elected.
In November of 1992, Clinton went to services in Little Rock, Ark., on the three weekends following his election, taking pre-church jogs on the first two and attending on the third weekend a Catholic Mass with the Rev. Jesse Jackson, with whom he was trying to smooth over lingering campaign tensions.

Despite Campaign Claim, Obama Told Paper He Attended Trinity Church ‘Every Week’
Thursday, November 13, 2008

(CNSNews.com) – President-elect Barack Obama said in 2004 – while he was a state legislator running for a U.S. Senate seat – that he attended services at Trinity United Church of Christ every week.
This is in contrast to what Obama, as a presidential candidate, said this year after controversial anti-American remarks by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright surfaced. Obama then told news outlets that he did not attend the church frequently and was not aware of Wright’s comments.

Speaking for myself, I don’t hugely care about this. Attendance of houses of worship are personal, not political. My concern is what he does when he’s in the Oval Office.
“Kind of like “I wouldn’t join any club that would have me as a member.”
Well, in my case, that’s true.
In fact, I’m even leery of the people who are willing to be my friend.
There must be something wrong with them...;-D
The election is over. He doesn’t need to go to church now.
Do not associate with those given to change - God.
He is a follower of the Prophet Marx.
Good point.
fact is, TheOne* dares not face, nor wants to hear about the real Messiah.
Since the gym has many mirrors, he felt it is a place of self-worship. It’s all good.
“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,” said the aide.
Convenient, as in “present”, but oh, so weak.
LOL
And to keep things sanitary, Klintoon & Monica kept a few kleen towels off the Oval Orifice that Hussein could kneel on!
Where in the Bible does it say you need to go to church?
Mix matter with antimatter and annihilation results.
Bring Anti-Christ in contact with Christ and figure out the rest.
Yeah, But he might have a Pentagram in his house so he can pray to satan anytime

He probably kneels east a few times each day as he was raised to do.
So, he skipped going to the Mosque? The truth is he won’t set foot in a Christian church. And I don’t count Trinity as a Christian church.
