The Cult of Obama

I posted something several months ago about Barack Obama's views on religion. It had to do with a 7/23/07 article in Time Magazine about the various Democrat's views on their faith.
Barack Obama said at that time that, "If we scrub language of all religious content, we forfeit the imagery and terminology through which millions of Americans understand both their personal morality and social justice. Secularists are wrong when they tell believers to leave their religion at the door before entering the public square."

Look at how carefully that statement is crafted. Not really endorsing God but certainly not avoiding the issue altogether.

I didn't see the ACLU going after him on that. Didn't see the leftist media doing anything about it. So it gave me pause that they would just let it slide. I mean, how could this man be ostracized for his "faith" if he is to be their favorite in the upcoming campaign???

Let's take Mike Huckabee for example and put him in front of the press saying this:
"If we scrub language of all religious content, we forfeit the imagery and terminology through which millions of Americans understand both their personal morality and social justice. Secularists are wrong when they tell believers to leave their religion at the door before entering the public square."

The media would be all over it wouldn't they? Ostracizing him for his radical religious views and they would saturate the headlines with "Mike Huckabee pushes God on the American public." He'd be demonized. Unfit to be president and compared to George Bush.

Yet when Obama says it, nothing happens. Poof. People scratch their heads...."what did he say?" Oh well....he says he's a Christian so what...well hey would you look at that! "Change we can believe in..." then the message switches. It's gone from their minds, a mere blip on the rearview mirror. Another thing I would like to add is Obama's views on taking the pledge of allegiance in front of the American flag. He has been quoted as saying along the lines that "taking the pledge and saying the words under God did not make him feel uncomfortable." Hmm...

I find it very interesting then when I look on youtube and watch videos of atheists claiming support for Obama. This when they know he has said things in support of Christianity and reading his Bible and taking an oath of faith. What are their reasons for supporting him? Is it his speeches? His charisma? I think that's very flawed and not the best reason to vote someone in. They should be supporting and actively trying to get a president that can't stand the thought of any religion in America and fights for the secularist win, no religion, no Bibles, no nothing.

But wait...I don't hear much about the banishing of Wicca, or of Buddhism, or even that much of Islam. Not near as much as Christianity. This tells me a lot. They don't care that much about the other religions. And IMHO I think they're afraid of Islam. So they won't speak out too much about that. Some have here and there, but not much. When you look at an atheist's website or read one of their books it is all about bashing the God of Christianity. Come on, let's not be discriminatory.


Do I believe Obama to be a true Christian? Absolutely not. Not when you say "there are many paths to God," and to imply that flyover country clings to their religious beliefs because they are bitter about what is happening in our country. It was the clinging to their faith that brought the founding fathers here to flee oppressed Europe and the fact that they were not allowed to practice their religion there. And the Treaty of Tripoli as a basis for argument is absolute nonsense.

Art. 11. As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquility, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.

It's a treaty between the US and Tripoli, not a founding document of our system of government. Just like the peace treaties we sign now, nothing more than a convenient statement to throw in there in support of atheism and to try to make themselves feel superior along with their pushing of evolution onto everyone. I'm not buying it.

No, I think atheists sense the truth about Obama, are ok with him riding the fence on his beliefs and will give the man a complete pass. Of course they will!!!!!!

They don't care who he associates with or the fact that he won't support America by wearing a simple flag lapel pin. What about all our soldiers that die every day? Can't honor them? Forget Iraq! What about all those that have died before Iraq and Desert Storm and Desert Shield? We so quickly forget those that pay the price for our freedom of speech and every other freedom we have.

If John McCain were to associate himself with Jerry Falwell or Oral Roberts or some fanatical right wing group like Obama has with Jeremiah Wright, yeah I'd have a problem with it. A BIG problem. So I don't want to hear that I'm just biased towards a liberal or a Democrat. Jeremiah Wright and his 10,000 square foot mansion are no different than Benny Hinn or Peter Popoff IMHO. Oh yeah, and I don't see him getting slapped with a fine or any discipline for continuing to use the pulpit to push his political agenda. Think Mike Huckabee would have gotten away with that when he was a Baptist minister?

I think Barack Obama stands for the erosion of America as we know it, and I think he is a dangerous man. Period.
