“Unless he is just trying to deceive the people. I want to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he could be so desperate to win he’ll just say anything.”

Ding! I think we have a winner!

[ushr435]

Great, now the Emperor’s New Clothes is a theologian!

Scripture according to the rats, “And the misguided masses cried out, ‘Save us oh Great Obama, save us.”

[DallasDeb]

Obama’s church, United Church of Christ, is actually considered a cult by Hank Hannegraaff (the Bible Answer Man). It is very liberal and accepts “all” as children of christ, including couples living together, same sex or not.

[A CA Guy]

True, his wife almost said she liked crackers the other day...
Did I get that right?

[xtinct]

While Obama says he's a Christian, I find it hard to believe that anyone who attends his church is a Christian... because REAL Christians aren't racist. Yes. It's possible for Blacks to be racist. His church is about Black supremacy. (think KKK)

Additionally, his church is antisemitic... Thus, they are NOT Christians.

And, now this same sex union flub.

Think Obama doesn't know much about the Christian faith because he's a Muslim pretending to be a Christian.

Think over the years, the people who belong to his church picked up on media stereotypes depicting Christians, e.g. KKK claimed to be Christian... they weren't, etc.

Obama's Bible Defense of Same-Sex Unions Wrong, Experts Say

And one of those experts is the Apostle Paul.

[colorado tanker]

Obama's view is a perfect case of anachronism - reading the present into the past.

The Bible is clear about homosexual acts in both the New and Old Testaments and Jesus did not speak if favor of that, much less gay marriage.

Homosexuality was fairly common among some pagan groups in the ancient world, but even they never confused a homosexual relationship with marriage.

[17th Miss Regt]

In other words, you cannot believe what Jesus said in Matthew and that Jesus endorsed same-sex marriage. It's inconsistent," Minnery said.

True. But because the Islamic doctrine of supercession allows contradictory verses in the Koran to be true at the same time, for a Muslim contradiction does not mean that anything is amiss. Bear in mind that Obama was educated at a Muslim school in his formative years and could well accept contradictions if he was taught to think that way.

[5thGenTexan]

It is very liberal and accepts “all” as children of Christ, including couples living together, same sex or not.

Careful, here. All are children of Christ. Some are misbehaving children and need rebuking, but children just the same.

Christ loves us all, even those who reject that love. Christ is Lord of all, those who deny Him cannot usurp His Lordship, only pretend it doesn't exist.

[mnehring]

I must have missed it in the article, how in the world did Osama, er I mean Obama twist it to support gay marriage?

[Philo-Junius]

Think Obama doesn't know much about the Christian faith because he's a Muslim pretending to be a Christian. The Muslim thing is a red herring--one about which Obama has lied, to be sure (probably out of a liberal contempt for America's ability to be fair to outsiders). All evidence indicates that Obama's life-long allegiance has been to his mother's self-idolising liberalism.

[Gamecock]

Don’t have to be an expert to know that.

[Philo-Junius]

I must have missed it in the article, how in the world did Osama, er I mean Obama twist it to support gay marriage? Apparently, Obama believes the corporal works of mercy can only be performed by homosexual couples.

[RetiredArmy]

Just another little Omama Osama Obama misQQQQQQQ. No worries. He is still going to take care of all of us and make us all rich and full health care.

[Allegra]

Goodness...Obama interprets the New Testament quite differently from any I've ever heard or read.

IMO, the passages about homosexuality in the Bible are very, very clear. Some parts of the Bible may appear somewhat ambiguous, but those verses are not.

[avenir]

I shake my head at Campolo who has been doing this kind of bactracking/parsing for a long time now.

[AndyTheBear]

The Left reads the Bible the same way they read the Constitution. It always means whatever they feel like. They don't have to actually be familiar with the words in such documents to get the true meaning.

[joebuck]

If anyone can discern a coherent thought out of what Compolo says above please let me know. It is absolute gibberish to me and seems to totally contradict itself.

[absolootezer0]

maybe he’s dyslexic and thinks that homosexuality is an “obama nation”
