What do you think about this? Is Obama getting back at Christians who do not support his Obamacare? Anyone who disagrees with him is the enemy.
If the shoe fits, puppet, if the shoe fits.

Don't want Christians being listed as Religious Extremists? Stop acting like one then.

Are there any reliable sources of this? I understand removing religion from the government, but labeling it extreme is wrong.

Defense Department classifies Catholics, evangelicals as extremists

The Defense Department came under fire Thursday for a U.S. Army Reserve presentation that classified Catholics and Evangelical Protestants as “extremist” religious groups alongside al Qaeda and the Ku Klux Klan.

The presentation detailed a number of extremist threats within the U.S. military, including white supremacist groups, street gangs, and religious sects.

The presentation identified seventeen religious organizations in a slide titled “religious extremism.” They include al Qaeda, Hamas, the Filipino separatist group Abu Sayyaf, and the Ku Klux Klan, which the slide identifies as a Christian organization.

Default Well Obama has a lot of people who will question him--

Catholic Church in the United States | Ask.com Encyclopedia

The Catholic Church in the United States is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, the Christian Church in full communion with the Pope. With more than 77.7 million registered members, it is the largest single religious denomination in the United States, comprising 25 percent of the population.[1] The United States has the fourth largest Catholic population in the world, after Brazil, Mexico, and the Philippines. It is also the largest Catholic minority population, and the largest English-speaking Catholic population.

So Obama does not care if he insults the largest religious denomination in the US?

[LEFT]"President Barack Obama is scheduled to posthumously award the Congressional Medal of Honor next week to Catholic Army Chaplain Emil Kapaun, who died in a North Korean military prison in 1951.

“It is hard to understand how a priest like Chaplain Kapaun can be honored in one breath while his faith-group is dishonored in another,” Crews said.

There's obviously a disconnect. Clearly, this occurred due to a lack of oversight and not as an intentional insult to the catholic faith.
