GG: What is sin?- Obama, 2004OBAMA: Being out of alignment with my values.
or
My mother, whose parents were nonpracticing Baptists and Methodists, was one of the most spiritual souls I ever knew. But she had a healthy skepticism of religion as an institution. And as a consequence, so did I.- Obama, 2007
OBAMA: Right. Jesus is a historical figure for me, and hes also a bridge between God and man, in the Christian faith, and one that I think is powerful precisely because he serves as that means of us reaching something higher. And hes also a wonderful teacher. I think its important for all of us, of whatever faith, to have teachers in the flesh and also teachers in history.- Obama, 2004
Just like the bracelet he wore to the debate bearing the name of... uh...um...ah...um...uh...Let’s see...Sgt...Ryan David Joseph... hold that...hear it is... Seargent Ryan David Jopek! Yes. Seargent Ryan David Jopek! His...uh...mother gave this to me amd I have worn it ever since.
in be4 Freepers mock Obama for no apparent reason.
>>Is there any Muslim doo dad in there?<<
Muslims are VERY much into devotion to Miriam (Mary)
The Chaldeans in my area tell stories of Muslims leaving flowers at their outdoor shrines to Mary.
I would be more surprised if he carried a crucifix.
Wonder if the medal of our Blessed Virgin was in his pocket when he maliciously and purposely inferred that Sarah Palin is a "pig"?
I've no reasons to mock him, but I've plenty of factual evidence that he's a very insecure man with personality disorders who craves attention as a ten year old boy would.
He's also a liar, a hypocrite, and as phony as rocking horse $hit.
...forgive me, Mary.
>>Madjugorie is a false apparition http://www.semperficatholic.com/page39.html <<
I agree with you, but it’s just a Medjugore fan throwing this in. The MM has been around LONG before the kids had a smoke and thought to cover it with a apparition story.
ahhhh, there is no cross in his pocket,,,do Muslims carry the Miraculous Medal?
Read and you’ll be surprised to see the facts laid out.
>>ahhhh, there is no cross in his pocket,,,do Muslims carry the Miraculous Medal?<<
To be honest with you, I’m not sure.
But I will tell you this, we were replacing missiles in our church one day after the first of the year. A lady stopped me and asked who one of the statues was. I said St. Therese, the little flower. The lady told me she was Muslim and had seen her in a dream. I said that she was welcome to come here any time. She lit a candle and prayed before a statue of Mary.
I wouldn’t give an absolute no to the question
We are told that it is too soon to show signs of skepticism. I think it is far too soon to show such massive adoration and blind faith and hyperbolic accolades.
zot
Great! Another trinket to sell on HSN!
Some Libs See Obama in a Peanut Butter Cookie and think it's A Sign to Sell it on eBay (eBay Posted on Wednesday, January 21, 2009)
I can sort of see a fetal Barack in it...
Rummy
the cross is on the back of the medal
Luke 2:34-35
And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother: Behold this child is set for the fall, and for the resurrection of many in Israel, and for a sign which shall be contradicted; And thy own soul (heart) a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts, thoughts may be revealed.
“The photo also shows another medal with the image of the Virgin Mary holding the Infant Jesus.”
Yet Obama would have supported the abortion of Jesus.
It is all for show. If he had any real respect for the medals we Catholics have, especially those of us for whom we hold the Blessed Mother in high esteem, he would not have those medals in a jumble in a pocket with other things resembling a lucky rabbits feet. If those medals really meant anything to him in a religious way, he would have them on a chain around his neck.
This man, will use any thing available to prop himself up to try to win people over..If he thought it would enhance his status with the KKK I bet he would wear a white sheet.
