Funny, I think you make a great point. I got into a huge p-contest on that interview faux pas back then. I argued the other way.

I think I was wrong.

Good way to put it. No, I have never misstated my religion. Ever. And I don’t know anybody who has. Including obama.

The Graham clan is irrelevant.

Billy, despite mythic status among evangelicals, wrongly and oddly aided X42 in his quest for religious cover during the Lewinski stain. Billy called krinton a “brother” and suggested he become a pastor. IMO, a believer with that sort of profile should have brought home the true facts of God and krinton’s deficiencies. Billy ain’t what folks think and Franklin has more than a few kinks of his own.

Go to: http://www.faithfreedom.org/obama.html
and read the article, “Obama, the making of the Fuehrer”, by Ali Sini, an ex-Muslim.

This article explains Obama and his insane cult following.
The best I’ve seen.

.

EXERPTS:

“..when the narcissist is criticized, his followers become offended. They take those criticisms personally and their instinct of self defense is triggered. They will become vigilantes and will silence their critics through intimidation, bullying, mocking, threats and violence (like calling those who disagree with Obama, racists). “ (Haven’t we all been subjected to this when we have dared to speak up against Omama?)

“When you fall for someone to the extent that Obama’s followers have fallen for him, you surrender your reason and individuality to him willingly. When millions of people surrender their hearts and their minds to one person the result can be catastrophic. This is what happened in Germany with Hitler, in China with Mao, in the Soviet Union with Stalin, in Cuba with Castro, in Iran ..”

An unequivocal expression of delusional gradiosity
(Narcissistic pathological disease) “..it shows in the posture and the way the narcissist walks and talks. Obama’s posture, exudes haughtiness. .Compare his posture to those of Hitler, Stalin and Saddam.”

One determining factor in the development narcissistic pathological disease is childhood abuse. “Obama’s early life was decidedly chaotic and replete with traumatic and mentally bruising dislocations..”
“.. his support of legislation to let babies die if they survive abortion, gives a glimps into his soul, that he may lacks empathy”

“..Is arrogant, has haughty behaviors or attitudes coupled with rage when frustrated, contradicted, or confronted ..” (witness his behavior during last debate. You could see rage in his eyes. Constantly interruping McCain, smirking, disrespecting the senior senator by calling him ‘John’)
“Feels grandiose and self-important (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents to the point of lying, demands to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements) “ (witness his numerous lies
http://tedmathis.blogspot.com/2008/0...t-of-lies.html)

“- Displays false modesty and unctuous “folksiness” but is unable to sustain these behaviors (the persona, or mask) for long. It slips and the true Obama is revealed: haughty, aloof, distant, and disdainful of simple folk and their lives.” (witness his bitter small town folks clinging to guns and religion.etc..)
The mask slips and the true Obama is revealed...

.

Obama, too, sublimates aggression. .
They create a personality cult around themselves and with their blazing speeches elevated their admirers’ souls, fill their hearts with enthusiasm and instill in their minds a new zest for life. They give them hope! They promise them the moon, but alas, invariably they bring them to their doom. When you are a victim of a cult of personality, you don’t know it until it it too late.
Narcissists have only one issue. They want power and will do and say anything to get it. Their words mean nothing to them. They do not intend to keep them. They look into your eyes and swear on a stack of Bibles that they are not going to do something when that is exactly what they intend to do. They break their promises when it suits them and annul their treaties when they can get away with it. They lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie, and lie. (witness his unbelievable flip flops on the Iraq war, his numerous lies..).

Radical left winger, Obama, is the least experienced of all the Democrats. His political views are the most foolish of them all. He opposed the surge in Iraq saying it will make the situation worse and he was wrong. He thinks the solution to terrorism is to sit with terrorist states without precondition and negotiate with them. When Russia invaded Georgia, all this genius did was to urge both sides to “exert restraint”. Everything this man has said so far reveals his ignorance in economical, political and military matters. [/b]
Despite that, this junior senator has managed to rally the seasoned senators of the Democratic Party around himself and, not withstanding his ineptitude, he has emerged as the leader de facto of his party and their presidential candidate. The emergence of so many cults in America is proof that America is not an exception to the norm. If demagogue narcissists, like Jim Jones, David Koresh or Jimmy Swaggart can find a fertile ground in America, why not one with a political message?

He creates a cult of personality. His admirers become his co-dependents. Anyone can be fooled by narcissists. Just as experienced and smart senators of the Democratic Party have surrendered to the charisma of Obama, a man who is inferior to them all in every sense; many members of the media also have fallen for his charm hook, line and sinker. The American media is soft on Obama, but extremely harsh and deceitfully unfair on Governor Palin. In reality, he is nobody. And yet, thanks to his overbearing display of authority, the very mask that he is wearing to hide his devalued and injured self, he has overwhelmed all the giants of the Democratic party. Cults are full of smart people who have been hoodwinked by sick needy people.

“With some people I cannot even talk about Obama. They cannot tolerate any criticism of him. They (Obama fans) get angry and, not only they want to end the conversation but threaten to end the friendship. I am familiar with this kind of religious devotion to a person. The reaction that I get from Obama worshippers is similar to that of Muslims when their prophet is criticized. They are even prone to insult you.

See how they overlook Obama’s blatant lies and are willing to forgive his major sins such as racism. Note how the mainstream media bends the rules, twists the facts, exaggerates Obama’s little virtues, absolves his sins, and even lies to sell him to the public. Compare the royal treatment that the liberal press has given to Obama to how unfairly they treat Governor Palin; how they smear her character and belittle her experience and achievement. ABC’s Charlie Gibson’s interview with Governor Palin was a stain on journalistic integrity. Is it more important that Palin has not traveled the world and has not shaken hands with heads of states, or the fact that Obama has lied so many times? Under what pretext should an ordinary citizen visit heads of foreign states? The question itself is preposterous!”

How can smart people let themselves be manipulated by a psychopath to such an extent that they become quasi zombies? Recall what the smart Germans did under the spell of Hitler. Bear in mind what the Soviets did under the influence of Stalin. Consider what the Japanese did during WWII when they believed in the divinity of their emperor. Evoke how the Chinese Red Guard massacred millions of their own countrymen when they were blinded by their love for Mao and his faux notion of equality. Look at the Islamic terrorists. Can’t we say the same about them? Isn’t Islamic savagery the result of Muslims’ uncritical devotion to a long deceased narcissist? If you don’t know what I am talking about, I invite you to read my book, Understanding Muhammad. When sane people fall for the lies of an insane man, they act insanely. (this explains a lot-how Obama fans can ignore his lies, his flip flops his terrorist associations and insult and attack anyone who would speak up against him)

The Sick Symbiosis
Narcissists need their narcissistic supply to fuel their narcissism. They get it through adulation from people around them. These people are often also needy people. They are known as co-dependants. The narcissist and his co-dependent therefore, form a sick symbiosis in which both benefit. The masses of people have no first hand knowledge of the narcissist, but they jump on the bandwagon thanks to a very human trait, misnomered as “herd mentality.” They reason, how can so many people can be wro,ng and satisfied by this fallacy blindly join the cult of personality worship.

“They (Obama worshippers) take those criticisms personally and their instinct of self defense is triggered. They will become vigilantes and will silence their critics through intimidation, bullying, mocking, threats and violence (like calling those who disagree with Obama, racists). “ (witness how those daring to speak up against Obama are abused. Witness Obama’s goon squads threatening Rebuplican TV ads in Missouri, witness goon squad attacks on the NRA, witness hacking of Republican websites, witness physical attacks on people with anti-Obama signs and tee shirts)

Narcissists are amoral. They consider themselves to be above the law. Once in power, they will try to strengthen their hold by surrounding themselves with equally amoral people. (Witness Obama’s stable of terrorists such as Bill Ayers, Muslim activists/America haters/racists such as Wright, and Farrakhan. He will surround himself with this sort if elected!

America is at a crucial moment in its history. I cannot think of any disaster greater than putting a pathological narcissist in control of the world’s most powerful military machine.
This election is like no other in the history of America. The issues are insignificant compared to what is at stake. What can be more dangerous than having a man bereft of conscience, a serial liar, and one who cannot distinguish his fantasies from reality as the leader of the free world?
There is no insanity greater than electing a pathological narcissist as president.

It’s the first poll where there were “right” and “wrong” responses. Even Fox reported it this way.

Is Jeremiah Wright a Christian. Liberation Theology seems to more Marxist than Christian. Wright left Christianity after he got his fish and loaf of bread out of the basket. Is Father Fieiger a Catholic? He left right after Jeremiah with his share of the basket. Is Minister Farakahn a Muslim? DumBO is a Marxist, all take, no give.

Joe is one lost goose. He’s not a Christian therefore he wouldn’t have any idea who Christians pray to.

You are correct. It is the principle of Al-Takeyya based on Surah 3.28 in the Koran. “Let not the believers Take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah: except by way of precaution (prevention), that ye may Guard yourselves from them (prevent them from harming you.) But Allah cautions you (To remember) Himself; for the final goal is to Allah.”
This gives Muslims the understanding that they can act contrary to their faith and renounce their faith if it furthers the faith in the long run and protects themselves from harm.

First of all, I think the media were only asking Brother Graham for a comment, hoping they’d get something with which they could hang HIM.

But that was a VERY shrewd reply by Franklin Graham now that I think about it. It takes Zero at his (insincere and mendacious) word regarding his faith. And like was already said by someone else, it puts him out before the muslim world as a Muhammed denier and renouncer! That’s heavy duty stuff, guys! Now all we have to do is hide and watch as Zero tries to wriggle his way out of THAT with all his muslim buds around the world. And BTW, I wish I were one-fourth the witness for Christ that Franklin Graham is. God bless and protect him. Amen.

“I am getting really tired of how loosely the term “Christian” is used these days. Simply believing in God does not make one a Christian nor does believing Jesus existed.

Even IF Obama believes both of those things I can almost guarantee he has never accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior and therefore, he is not a Christian........”

I have said before that Obama cannot be a Christian, because a true believer would never allow his followers or the news media to blaspheme regarding his supposed equality with Jesus. Obama should have forbidden references to himself as “the Messiah”, the “Annointed one”, etc., but instead he embraced and encouraged such talk. So, he cannot be a real Christian.

That’s yet another example of someone not understanding what a Christian really is.

Jesus is one with God. I’m pretty sure Mohamed was not with Allah.

My Savior and Mohamed are as different as light and darkness.

That’s another angle I hadn’t thought of. Great observation.

Any Christian knows that to compare oneself with the Lord would be a sin in and of itself. A Christian would never allow themselves to be equated in any way whatsoever with the Savior of mankind.

To allow these comparisons to me proves not only that he is no Christian but further, that he has a dark soul.

I don’t read Arabic. So I must read a translation of the Koran. I see no mention of the son of a murtad fitri not being Muslim, sorry.

The assertion that Obama did not become a Muslim at birth because his father was an apostate does not hold water.
