Not surprising.
Clinton, Carter, Reagan, Bush, etc......all were at least held in good standing in their respective home churches, even if I vehemently disagreed with their theology. None of them ever denied their faith or church, none of them.
Barack Obama is the first Presidential winner I can recall who actually denied his church and the tenets of his Faith. When threatened with being tossed into the lion’s den during the campaign this year, Barack Obama essentially said, “Jesus who?” (at least when one considers how he “found jesus” this is certainly true).
Truly, a first in my lifetime. Truly.

Not suprising for someone who is called the Messiah. What could church possibly have to teach Him?

Just spent a little while on the United Church of Christ's website.I had,for some time,been under the impression that that "church" was one of many Protestant denominations that had gone atheist...at least in the US.And after spending a while on their website it looks as if I was correct.Their list of "ministries" and "concerns" looks like it was lifted straight off of the DUmmieLand or Daily Chaos websites.
And remember,the Anything-But-Revered Wright is a UCC "clergyman".

".. he uses the church when he needs it, and ignores it when it is no longer useful."
But Lincoln, Jefferson, and Reagan didn't do this. To me, that's the point.

Mr. President-elect, you can always ask a pastor to come to your place and you and your retinue can hear the Word of God. The church is not a place. The church is composed of people, the Body of Christ. If you are of the Body of Christ, then you should be worshiping.
Why don’t you see if a pastor would come to you and not tell the press, if that’s your concern.

To: Clintonfatigued
Speaking for myself, I dont hugely care about this. Attendance of houses of worship are personal, not political. My concern is what he does when hes in the Oval Office. I'm Christian, but I'm more than okay with Lieberman being Jewish and with Romney being Mormon. I'm not okay with someone who claims to be religious during the campaign and then slides his "beliefs" back into a folder marked "Do Not Open Until 2012 Campaign". Faking faith reflects on integrity, or in the Affirmative Action President's case further supports the overwhelming conclusion that Obama is a complete and total fraud.
