How about this?

GG: What is sin?

OBAMA: Being out of alignment with my values.

- Obama, 2004

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

Or even that Jesus is a historical figure, not "in the flesh"?

“OBAMA: Right. Jesus is a historical figure for me, and he’s 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 he’s also a wonderful teacher. I think it’s important for all of us, of whatever faith, to have teachers in the flesh and also teachers in history.”
- Obama, 2004

>>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.

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.

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

Obama certainly is not the god that his handlers make him out to be.

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.

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.

No apparent reason?! The guy is a socialist joke; trying to be all things to all people. He doesn't carry these "trinkets" in his pocket it's all for show, for the camera. If you believe he really carries these things then you're as gullible as the average liberal loon. I bet you believe he can walk on water and is going to give you "free" health care too.

Government does not generate and income it TAKES it.
