The Bible tells me not to judge, lest I be judged.

But I don’t believe this for one moment. The man may have been sincere back then, but I do not believe he has this country’s founding Judeo-Christian faith in interest.

According to this Newsweek article Hussein isn’t sure whether or not Jesus is the Son of God.

Finding His Faith
by Lisa Miller
July 12, 2008
Obama embarked on a spiritual quest in which he tried to reconcile his rational side with his yearning for transcendence. He found Christ—but that hasn’t stopped him from asking questions. “I’m on my own faith journey and I’m searching,” he says. “I leave open the possibility that I’m entirely wrong.”

I think I have an ongoing conversation with God. I think throughout the day, I'm constantly asking myself questions about what I'm doing, why am I doing it.

Jesus is an historical figure for me, and he's also a bridge between God and man, in the Christian faith, and one that I think is powerful precisely because he serves as that means of us reaching something higher.

And he's also a wonderful teacher. I think it's important for all of us, of whatever faith, to have teachers in the flesh and also teachers in history.

Muzzies recognize Jesus as a "teacher and profit", but .......

Never once did he say that Jesus was the son of God. Never once did he describe him as the savior of man. You tell me what he is.

Not a Christan alert....” What I believe in is that if I live my life as well as I can, that I will be rewarded. “

This interview should once and for all confirm Obama is not a Christian. None of what I read makes Obama a Christian in any way, even by the most liberal definition of what it is to be a follower of Jesus. His answers are a hodgepodge of muddled and confused agnostic cliches and Joel Oesteen feel good pseudo Christian babble. Good interview and finally we can put this issue to rest, sorry Barry you believe in you own goodness and in no need of a savior that by definition means you are going to hell. Not my word's ..Jesus’, Paul's, etc.

So, I'm rooted in the Christian tradition. I believe that there are many paths to the same place, and that is a belief that there is a higher power, a belief that we are connected as a people.

Well, all roads might lead to God, but, most lead to His judgement, but only one, leads to his grace.

Sorry but according to John 14:6-7, President Obama is NOT a Christian.

OBAMA: Obviously as an African American politician rooted in the African American community, I spend a lot of time in the black church.

Like... Satan's church?

I think that religion at it’s best comes with a big dose of doubt. I’m suspicious of too much certainty in the pursuit of understanding just because I think people are limited in their understanding.”

That’s why we have the word of God. It’s in the Bible. Read it.

Heartwarming.

“when I was the religion reporter (I am now its religion columnist) at the Chicago Sun-Times, I met then-State Sen. Barack Obama at Café Baci, a small coffee joint at 330 S. Michigan Avenue in Chicago, to interview him exclusively about his spirituality.”

And I’m sure this paper has a DEEP interest in the religious convictions of ALL politicians. (sarcasm)

It’s problematic when non-Christians try to speak the language of Christians. They don’t know how. I’m just saying.

OBAMA: Yep. Every week. 11 oclock service.

Ever been there? Good service.

I actually wrote a book called Dreams from My Father, it's kind of a meditation on race. There's a whole chapter on the church in that, and my first visits to Trinity.
