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.

Obama is a Christian who does not celebrate Christmas

True. He spent Christmas in Hawaii playing golf and going to the beach. Christmas day the family exchanged presents in the morning and went to a Marine mess hall in the afternoon. There's a chapel at the Kaneohe base and plenty of churches in the surrounding area, but they weren't there.

Christian or not, he sure is insecure.

He is responding directly to poll results.

From Need Help From RCC & Orthodox. Is Obama A Christian If He Believes That Jesus Isn't The Only Way?: "Back in 2004, Obama was interviewed by Cathleen Falsani of the Chicago Sun Times in an article that dealt with Obama's faith and beliefs. Obama said that he was a Christian and that he believed that "there are many paths to God." When asked by Falsani how he could reconcile that belief with the scripture where Jesus said "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life... No man comes to the Father but by Me," Obama replied that it depends on how you interpret Jesus' words."

No, he is NOT a Christian.

Panic in the White House regarding the King Hussein-is-a-Muslim poll numbers. Seems to have caught Axelrod’s attention.

I don’t know his heart. Perhaps he does believe Jesus died for our sins and was resurrected.

But his actions don’t suggest that’s the case.

I’ll leave it between him and God.

He’s lying when he says he’s christian. He’d be lying if he said he was muslim. The highest call in religion is God. The highest call for Obama is power. He’s a power hungry secularist who uses religion when it suits him but you can bet that he does not believe a word of it.

Obama is one of the false prophets Jesus warned against.

If he didn’t say he was, then everyone would say stuff like...’silence speaks volumes’ or he must be because he doesn’t deny it. So he says he is, and everyone says he lying.

How does anyone really know what another person believes?

You know, I don't even care.

There are Spozed-to-be, certified Catholics, Protestants, Mormons, Jews, Evangelicals, agnostics, whatever, members of any church or of no particular church, who are morally upright, Constitutionally straight, intellectually able, fuctionally capable, and politically effective --- and there are those who are not.

I find Obama and his allies deficient or radically wrongheaded with reference to most or all of these criteria. That includes Pelosi the supposed Catholic, Reid the supposed Mormon, Lieberman the supposed Jew, and pret'near the whole Black Caucus, which in the main is supposedly Protestant. I find their principles skewed, and their policies appalling. That's all.

I don't care where they set their rear ends on Sunday mornings.

Going to church no more makes you a Christian than standing in a garage makes you a car.

Joshua DuBois, director of the White House Office of Faith Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, holds weekly calls with clergy — and also gives the president a daily Bible verse.

Church leaders who have frequented the White House included Bishop Vashti Murphy McKenzie of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Bishop Charles E. Blake of the West Angeles Church of God in Christ and T. DeWitt Smith, Jr., president of the Progressive National Baptist Convention.

Reverend Meeks
Described in a 2004 Chicago Sun Times article as someone Barack Obama regularly seeks out for “spiritual counsel,” James Meeks, who will serve as an Obama delegate at the 2008 Democratic convention in Denver, is a long-time political ally to the democratic frontrunner.

When Obama ran for the U.S. Senate in 2003, he frequently campaigned at Salem Baptist Church while Rev. Meeks appeared in television ads supporting the Illinois senator’s campaign…

Since that time, not only has Meeks himself served on Obama’s exploratory committee for the presidency and been listed on the Obama’s campaign website as one of the senator’s “influential black supporters,” but his church choir was called on to raise their voices in praise at a rally the night Obama announced his run for the White House back in 2007.

Interestingly, the Chicago Sun Times has also reported that both Meeks and Obama share a history of substantial campaign contributions from indicted real estate magnate Tony Rezko.

James Meeks: Obama’s Other Bigoted Spiritual Leader (02:39)

Meeks has called white American mayors “slave masters,” and referred to black preachers and politicians who “protect” the “white man” as “house niggers.”

“We don’t have slave masters, we got mayors,” exclaimed James Meeks, an Illinois state senator and pastor of one of the largest churches in the state, in an August, 2006 sermon broadcast on a Chicago community television channel.

Continued Meeks in the sermon: “But they are still the same white people who are presiding over systems where black people are not able to be educated. You got some preachers that are house niggers. You got some elected officials that are house niggers. Rather than them try and break this up, they’re gonna fight you to protect that white man.”

Meeks has campaigned for Obama and allowed Obama to campaign at his church during the presidential candidate’s 2004 senatorial run — a violation of federal election law.

A recent Meeks endorsement of Obama is touted on the presidential candidate’s campaign website.

In a 2004 interview with Cathleen Falsani of the Chicago Sun-Times, Obama described Meeks as an adviser who he seeks out for spiritual council.

Obama told the Sun-Times that the day after he won a 2004 senatorial primary, he stopped by Meeks’ Salem Baptist Church for Wednesday-night Bible study.

In 2006, Meeks informed his church during a sermon he may run for Illinois governor. He was recorded telling the mostly black congregation any “white Christian” who doesn’t vote for him is a “racist.”

“If I do run and there are two people in the race who both are not standing for morality, if I don’t have every white Christian vote in the state of Illinois, I will stand on top of the Sears Tower and call every one of y’all racist,” Meeks said from his pulpit.
