And Nooooooo. I'm not going to drag up some overworked issue about "Obama is a muslim" or some such. So go wash the sand out and get past it. But I received this link today via e-mail, and found it rather interesting. It's a seven part video series hosted by Rev. Don Hamer of the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission. Each video is approximately two to three minutes in length. And each gives a short snippet of why, by Biblical standards, Barack Obama is not a Christian.
Whether you are for or against him, it's worth the few minutes to view the series, to get a better understanding of what his (Obama's) beliefs are. And how he's definitely trying to "play-up to" the various religious segments, whilst maintaining a worldly, self-promoting image. You can find the video series at the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission site. The videos are listed one through seven, down the left hand side of the page. There is also a news link, about the "7 Reasons" video series being covered by the AP and CNN. Although I don't consider Obama to be a muslim myself, (even though I have pondered the question early on,) I have my suspicions about the dogmatic practices he adheres to. Namely, the Black Liberational Theology.
For someone who's supposed to be a uniter, this is a practice, that he sat through for over twenty years from his mentor (before he threw him under the bus for his own political gains) Rev. Wright, that is divisive at best. If anything, this doctrine is something we can expect to see carry into his administration, regardless of whether he has "somewhat denounced" his affiliation to Rev. Wright's church. Sorry, but the lame excuses of not being present in church on the few times Rev. Wright spoke on such issues, just isn't flying with me.
The video series is short and to the point. Each one covering a specific issue, regarding Obama and his lack of adherence to a Christian principle that he lays claim to be a part of. The aspects of Abortion, One path to Heaven, Homosexuality and more are covered. And I'll throw out a warning here, there ARE some GRAPHIC images in the abortion segment, Segment #4. The "Introduction" page, linked above and HERE, gives a brief synopsis of the series as well, and includes a line I was glad to see. "Our concern is only spiritual and we pray for Barack Obama to repent and turn to Christ and His Word." That sounds a bit more like the unity I know. More so than the "clinging to god and guns," phrase Obama spouted.
So, pop on over to the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission website and have a look. It may present some revealing info to you, relevant to making any "lasting" decisions.
UPDATE: 1-2-2008; For those who may be wondering, yes you are correct, I haven't written anything new for a few days. I have been pondering, and decided to go through with, going on a writting sabatical for a few months. With all the political mess we are in now, and all the crap we've been put through over the last year and a half, I need the rest, just as America needs a rest from liberals. I'll c yas on the flip side. --John
