But it gets worse - I hear he's been throwing around words like "Thursday" and "Tuesday" around all willy-nilly. A clear reference to his true Norse religion if there ever was one. Do we know that he's not sacrificing humans to Odin the All-Father in the Rose Garden?

Asking God to damn America is not too smart..

I think the blessing on this country is being removed for lack of respect for God.

Well most churches seem to require a baptism to belong officially to their church from my understanding. In President Obama's case, since his father was a Muslim, the Muslim religion recognized him at birth as Muslim although as I have already stated that does not make him a practicing Muslim and if he had a baptism and could show some acceptable proof of that perhaps people would/could stop discussing this issue.

I've come to believe that Birch Barlow's entire existance on this site is a parody considering he took his name from a cartoon character on "The Simpsons" that itself was an outlandish parody of Rush Limbaugh.

Obama is a liar. His beliefs are grounded in Black Liberation Theology which is a hate message against whites.
From Black theology beliefs..


"Black theology cannot accept a view of God which does not represent God as being for oppressed blacks and thus against white oppressors. Living in a world of white oppressors, blacks have no time for a neutral God. The brutalities are too great and the pain too severe, and this means we must know where God is and what God is doing in the revolution. There is no use for a God who loves white oppressors the same as oppressed blacks. We have had too much of white love, the love that tells blacks to turn the other cheek and go the second mile. What we need is the divine love as expressed in black power, which is the power of blacks to destroy their oppressors, here and now, by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject God's love." [A Black Theology of Liberation, p. 70]

It's getting more and more difficult to sort the clowns and the fools.

People from different backgrounds can come to Christ. You are NOT a christian if you believe otherwise.

Additionally, he was raised in the Islamic faith in Indonesia where he attended a madrassa. In matters of religion he certainly seems to give Islam special consideration over the other religions of the world. Now who knows what, if any religion he currently practices. We know he sat in Reverend Wrong's hate American church for 20 some odd years. But the fact is he is a Muslim by birth and was raised a Muslim, so to stand there and claim with conviction that he's not a Muslim and to write off those who believe he is as uneducated hicks is not only bigoted and hateful but also incredibly ignorant.
I agree, somewhat. Being a Muslim is not the issue. But I believe his name, BARACK HUSSEIN does somewhat certify he was named by his mother/father in Kenya. But there is no positive proof. He was rasied in Indonesia but was not born there...hmmm. Most are in denial..like you said, Obama and his family sat in Reverend Wright's church for 20 years. Wright was also, Obama's mentor, friend, and he even baptized his children. To sit in a church every Sunday, for 20 years, listening to Wright's sermons bashing America and white people, is NOT normal.
If someone does not agree with Obama's policies or anything about him for that matter, we are considered racist...but Obama attending a white- hating, white bashing church for 20 years, is not racist?!

I think it is a lovely sound, also, in a primeval, haunting way. However, that's all it is to me...a sound.

But, maybe I'm weird...the sound of bagpipes gives me goosebumps and makes my heart beat a little faster...LOL
