FR poll: Will Obama attend church tomorrow on Martha's Vineyard? (and a bonus question...)

Posted on 08/21/2010 10:27:30 AM PDT by ken5050

The WH and Dems are obviously stunned by the recent Pew Poll showing that about 1 in 4 Americans believe that Obama is a Muslim. Pundits, for the last few days, have been saying that we'll soon see him publicly attending church far more often. So, Freepers, does he or doesn't he attend tomorrow? Is it too soon..would it look too obvious? What say you all??

Every time he sinks a putt he says, “Thank God.” Does that count?

Obama will claim to be whatever he thinks is most politically advantageous for him to claim to be until the political winds change the next morning. Then he will claim something else.

My gut feeling is that Obama is an atheist, like his mother.

"I was not raised in a religious household... My mother's own experiences... only reinforced this inherited skepticism. Her memories of the Christians who populated her youth were not fond ones..." - - - Barack Obama, The Audacity of Hope

Obama used his attendance at Jeremiah Wright's racist church to build up his local Chicago political position. When that no longer served his nationwide political purposes, he threw Wright under the bus.

In regards to being a "Muslim", as an atheist, Obama is no more Muslim than he is Christian in religious terms but he is probably a "cultural Muslim" and more sympathetic to the Muslim world than he is to Christian Middle America or to religious Jews.

Since political expediency now dictates that Obama should pretend to be a practicing Christian, Obama might put on a show of going to Church for the media sycophants or he might issue a statement that he "worships privately".

Yes, you are right, but I recall he made some lasting political connections through that church. Just my opinion, but he strikes me as far too shallow to have ever pondered anything but his own wonderfulness much less to have formulated a religious philosophy.

Doesn't matter if he does or doesn't.

It means nothing to him.

he will choose one of the Catholic churches...

LOL!! How will he know when to kneel? They would have to bring in a Saudi King or something as a cue. And when it comes to the part where the congregation prays the confiteor " I confess to almighty God, and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have sinned through my own fault, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done, and in what I have failed to do;

Just LOL!!

No he won’t...he will choose one of the Catholic churches...

Why Catholic? (I'm guessing the Community Evangelical Assembly of God because he could "organize" them!)

"He will be first in line to get into church, will carry the largest Bible he can find."

Bill Clinton's 12-pounder is probably still available. You know he's not reading it.
