So, in case you didn’t know, Obama is a Christian.
Yeah, I know. Shocker.
But hey he could say the same about me! So this isn’t to stand in judgment or be the first to cast stones for whomever is without sin, but it is to show that Obama is a flipping dirty little liar. It’s to the point now where I try to see where he ISN’T lying. It’s much less exhausting.
Obama has always had that bizarre Narcissism about him where I really do think he believes he is enlightened somehow. He’s called himself the 4th best President ever. He’s likened himself to Gandhi and Nelson Mandella. For reals. I shook my head too.
I read on Godfather Politics an interview from 2004 with Cathleen Falsani talking to Obama about his Christian faith.
ALSANI: “Do you believe in heaven?”
OBAMA: “Do I believe in the harps and clouds and wings?”
FALSANI: “A place spiritually you go to after you die?”
OBAMA: “What I believe in is that if I live my life as well as I can, that I will be rewarded. I don’t presume to have knowledge of what happens after I die. But I feel very strongly that whether the reward is in the here and now or in the hereafter, the aligning myself to my faith and my values is a good thing.
When I tuck in my daughters at night and I feel like I’ve been a good father to them, and I see in them that I am transferring values that I got from my mother and that they’re kind people and that they’re honest people, and they’re curious people, that’s a little piece of heaven.”
FALSANI: “Do you believe in sin?”
OBAMA: “Yes.”
FALSANI: “What is sin?”
OBAMA: “Being out of alignment with my values.”
FALSANI: “What happens if you have sin in your life?”
OBAMA: “I think it’s the same thing as the question about heaven. In the same way that if I’m true to myself and my faith then that is its own reward; when I’m not true to it, it’s its own punishment.”
Godfather Politics explains it perfectly, “Christianity clearly teaches that sin is man’s disobedience of God. Because of man’s sin, man only has the right to go to Hell which is why we need a Savior. The Savior is Jesus Christ who as God came to earth in the form of a man, lived a sinless life, was crucified on the Cross for OUR sins, died, was buried and the rose from the dead and ascended into heaven where He prepares a place for us.”
Trust me, any Christian that has claimed to spend “20 years” in a christian church will easily answer the questions Falsani posed almost identically in alignment with true Christian doctrine.
I also hate I don’t have a reference for this. But somewhere recently, I also read that since Obama was at one time a Muslim, that the Muslim world still views him as such.
Great. *rolls eyes*
