I wonder IF he was ever actually baptized.
He doesn’t claim Christ as his savior and he retracts his claim that he is born again as soon as he makes it!
FALSANI: Did you actually go up for an altar call?
OBAMA: Yes. Absolutely.
It was a daytime service, during a daytime service. And it was a powerful moment. Because, it was powerful for me because it not only confirmed my faith, it not only gave shape to my faith, but I think, also, allowed me to connect the work I had been pursuing with my faith.
FALSANI: How long ago?
OBAMA: 16, 17 years ago. 1987 or 88
FALSANI: So you got yourself born again?
OBAMA: Yeah, although I don’t, I retain from my childhood and my experiences growing up a suspicion of dogma. And I’m not somebody who is always comfortable with language that implies I’ve got a monopoly on the truth, or that my faith is automatically transferable to others.
I’m a big believer in tolerance. I think that religion at it’s best comes with a big dose of doubt
I caught that statement also, it sure seems like he is referring to himself as God.
