Maybe Beelzeflubba is thinking of a certain Arkansas habit of his that defies probability..

Obama says his favorite god is the Hindu “Monkey God” and that he carries a pic of one in his pocket, but he is to receive his own gold plated “Monkey god” the day before the convention. So what else is new?

Obama is about as Christian as Granny Goose.

Barak picked a politically advantageous church that would be accepting of his background in and appreciation of Islam.

Jesus Christ had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Obama’s pastor Rev. Wright is as “Christian” as Rev. Phelps.

Obama says he came to the realization that his sins "were redeemed."

Now, that's a novel theology.

Human beings are redeemed. Sins are condemned to the deepest sea.

I'm not convinced that he isn't a muslim, but I'm sure he's not a Christian. He was asked in an earlier interview who he thought Jesus was and his response was something like "a great man who serves as a bridge between God and man".

That is not a Christian or a Christian's response.

If Barack Obama thought it important enough to have his two daughters baptized, why is he not baptized?

Swearing allegiance to the “Black Value System” doesn't make one a Christian.

It sounds like something a Unitarian would say, or these days an Episcopalian.

I think he just talks gas because he doesn't believe in anything outside himself.

You see these folks from time to time. They're very charismatic because they don't really care what other people think, which paradoxically attracts. They want what they want; the rest of the world is simply a supporting cast to get them what they want. Malignant narcissism, perhaps?

Is there any sourcing on this, or is it the BOROD (Barack Obama Rumor Of the Day)
