Didn't see her oral presentation, but, I think she is a religious coot and can't wait to see her stay Gov. of Alaska in 2009.

 

 her religion and guns statement was targeted at people like you.

Besides Obama believes in something, he aligns himself with SOMETHING.. Whether is be Humanism, Islam, whatever you have to believe something. The fact he hides it seems more worrysome to me that someone being open about their beliefs. Unless she does something to inhibet others religous freedoms I do not see why you should be such a hater about it.

"I am a Christian, and I am a devout Christian. I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I believe that that faith gives me a path to be cleansed of sin and have eternal life. But most importantly, I believe in the example that Jesus set by feeding the hungry and healing the sick and always prioritizing the least of these over the powerful." (Barack Obama Christianity Today, January 2008)

Criticizing someones beliefs is one thing, but attempting to mislead people is another.  I criticized Sarah Palins beliefs and how they fit in with American governing, because she said the War was a task from god. 

What exactly are you trying to imply?

 

Bigjon? Where'd you go, I was looking forward to your answer.

How is she misleading people?

The she has her own beliefs based on the Bible. The Bible says murder is wrong, she is against abortion. The Bible says Homosexuality is wrong- she is against Gay Marriage. For me someone who says they believe the Bible but is Pro things that are against it. You really cannot totally believe the Bible and be a liberal. I mean seriously look at alot of things the Bible says... It goes COMPLETELY against humanistic philosophy. Now, some people pick and choose what they want to believe in the Bible and can alter the Bibles interpretation (sometime people "modernize" it), but they really do not believe the Bible. Also, when it comes to right wingers, I think peoples big problem with them is not what they believe it is their lack of compassion about what they believe.

 

 

While this is true, it is possible to be a Christian and pro-abortion at the same time; you'll just be wrong.  If Obama does indeed regard a baby prior to birth, then he would be committing murder.  If he doesn't, he isn't murdering; he's unwittingly killing.  Which isn't good, but at that, he wouldn't be guilty of anything.  This is, of course assuming he doesn't consider them human.

That's not to say I don't consider abortion wrong.

I do agree with you on everything else.  Take for example this statement of his (in reference to his acceptance of homosexuality),

"If people find that controversial then I would just refer them to the Sermon on the Mount, which I think is, in my mind, for my faith, more central than an obscure passage in Romans." 

That is ridiculously nonsensical.  What on Earth does obscurity (which the passage certainly does not possess) have to do with it being true?  If people don't quote at least five times a day, you can ignore it?  That's a rather shoddy method of selecting passages to adhere to (ignoring the fact that you're even selecting passages to begin with).
