So again, who really cares? Seeing how many more pressing issues there are, this seems trivial.
A persons stance on a policy is usually dictated by their religious and/or moral beliefs. It has been that way since the inception of our constitution. Did you vote Democrat because of the waning popularity of the Republican party, or because your belief structure guided your decision making process?

So your opinion is fundementally flawed then. Since you do not know his religion and you can't know his level of religiousity...how can you "stand firm" in your statement?

It seems illogical to me...

You are no Christian.

Excuse me if I don't care that you declare me to be a non Christian.

I'm sure President Obama feels likewise about your worthless opinion.

Your opinion loses credibility when you have no proof whatsoever. You don't have proof to back up your assertion. So that's pretty bad.

Then he has the nerve to call on "religious leaders" to call his health plan a "moral imperative".


He seems to only use church for his political ends. To get elected and then to get bills passed.
Obama is probably not really a Christian. He seems like far too sharp of an individual to really believe in Christianity.

But in the USA, being a non-Christian = political failure. So they all must act as though they are Christian just to avoid political suicide.

It breaks my heart that you don't believe me. Not really.
