Baptism, I don’t believe is a hard-fast requirement to be a christian. Some denominations, may think so, but as far as I can tell, biblically, it does nothing for your souls destination, per se. One can be saved and go to heaven without babtism.

That said, no way do I believe that Obama has ever earnestly turned his life over to Christ, just like almost all Dem Pols, no evidence there was any conversion at all. My test, abortion. I can’t see how any saved person can allow themselves to be seen as appearing to support it, let alone actually openly, and publically supporting it. Almost all Dems FAIL this test.

If you are born a Muslim, then by Muslim tradition you remain a Muslim unless you renounce Islam. Simply saying you are a Christian does not state that you have renounced Islam. A baptism into a Church would be considered such a renouncement.

Now has anyone ever seen Obama eat pork?
