Obama Claims to be a Christian

Foxnews | 8/19/10 just now

Just now on Fox News it was announced that Obama issued a press release stating that he is a practicing Christian, consults with 5 pastors, reads the Bible and prays daily, and has daily devotionals sent to him. The report did not say whether he read the devotionals.

[DPMD]

He’s a liar.

[Paperdoll]

Thank you.

[Northern Yankee]

Exactly! I’ve often wondered why more people haven’t used that tape to really find out what this wretched creature is all about.

[Northern Yankee]

Yes they did!!!

[stuartcr]

I’m sure that Christ already knows if someone is a Christian or not.

It is puzzling, isn't it?

[DBCJR]

I posted this as it came across the air. It was breaking news then, which they stopped an interview for.

[Northern Yankee]

Yes... I remember vividly that interview. I damn near fell off my chair when I saw that. As a Catholic I could never consider anything other than what my faith is.

I know you'd feel the same way.

[hsalaw]

I think it was the Methodist Church.

[SumProVita]

Not at all. Simply an observant, ordinary person guided by the Holy Spirit.

I googled the news option with the words "obama christian" and the nearest I could find was this, not from FoxNews but from WaPo:

It still seems surreal to me when I see that video, but people often tell us the truth about themselves, despite their intentions.

[Northern Yankee]

Absolutely!

It would be simple to clear this up -

all he has to do is go on TV and declare

“I am a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, God Incarnate, who lived a sinless life, was crucified for all of our sins, died, and rose again, and I believe Him when He said He was THE Way, THE Truth, and THE Life, and that no one comes unto the Father except by Him.”

Simple enough. Oh, and he has to keep from bursting into flame when he says it... :)

Obama is a Christian who does not celebrate Christmas and who celebrates Ramadan.

Or attend any Christian church in the last 2 years *at least*, and whose first speech in office was directed, not at America or the free peoples of Earth, but to all Muslims.

And let's not forget THE bow to the keeper of the Muslim holy places:

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[CynicalBear]

In the Muslim community if you are born to a Muslim father you are Muslim. He went to school in Indonesia as a Muslim.

If any Muslim does leave Islam, he is an apostate who must be given a chance to return to Islam. But if the person refuses to return to Islam, the “punishment is death”.

I quess we will see if the Muslims feel he has left “his Muslim Faith”.

[Boogieman]

Smells like Rahm forced him to do this public declaration after that AP poll released earlier showed a significant percentage of the country believes he’s a Moose-limb.

[truthandlife]

This is getting funnier by the hour. Obama admits with his own lips on his “Muslim faith” see here on ABC’s This Week in 2008 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKGdkqfBICw. George has to correct him. The media are trying their hardest for this guy.

I really think you are going to see more of this from Obama. You are going to see him get so angry and start to not care. Remember, God has a funny sense of humor.

[Boogieman]

Maybe if he put some of that in a sandwich and scarfed it down on primetime TV he might squelch the rumors :D

OK, so it was a remark from a press aide aboard Air Force One in response to a question. That’s easier to fathom than a premeditated press release. Thanks.
