So, when’s Barakobama gonna leave Wright’s church? That’s what I’m waiting for.

To me this isn't an issue about when Obama will leave his church. I think it is easy to get caught up in moving from one church to another, as a way of addressing (or rather, not addressing) issues of sin a person has become aware of. Instead of taking a stand, such as going to the Pastor and/or Deacons of the church to challenge them concerning their obligation to ensure that only sound and fit doctrine is preached from the pulpit, it's much easier to just leave....move on to another church until the next time the human sins within are revealed, indicating it's time to move on again.

I don't believe this is how Christ intends the church to be. We are accountable one unto another, from the lowliest to the greatest position. I have never sat in my church listening to a leader go astray without then privately taking my concern to that person. If the situation remains unresolved then it is my spiritual obligation to my beloved church body to bring the issue before the Deacons/Elders of the church. We are supposed to face and denounce wrong doing within the church, not just up and leave to let the sin remain a fester within the body.

Thus the important question to me is what Obama did, or is doing, to address this sin within his church body. There's nothing brave or biblical about simply remaining silent (until now that is) in the face of feeling 'pain and anger' in your soul concerning sin. Taking a stand within the church, to cast out the sin, is the right thing to do, anything less is not only unscriptural but cowardly.

Oh, come on. Barak was in that church for 20 years, and he called Wright his mentor and sounding board. He named his book for a Wright sermon that’s full of anti-white hatred. He donated 22k to the church just in 2006. Barak was 100% in agreement with Wright, when establishing “I’m super black” street cred was of value to him in Chicago ward politics. There was never an inch of daylight between these soul mates.

And as far as the church itself, it’s no more “Christian” than the White Aryan Nations “Christian Identity” church in Idaho. It preaches that Jesus was a black oppressed by evil racist whites, and that Christianity is about these oppressed blacks (the true black Chiristians) fighting white oppression.

Like I said, it’s the equally racist version of the White Aryan Nations “Christian Identity” church.

What you say would be true if we were discussing doctrinal issues. We’re not. We’re discussing the issue of a pastor using the pulpit to spout racist and anti-American garbage.

When I asked the question “When’s Barakobama gonna leave Wright’s church?”, I was using sarcasm. I know he won’t leave. He’s a product of that church. There was another thread on this yesterday about a couple interviews Wright gave in 2007 about his relationship with Obama. He essentially said they’d discussed the fact that should Obama run, he’d be criticized for their relationship and they’d have to distance themselves.

Well, If Obama has been unaware of the beliefs of his pastor, and such beliefs disgust him, why would they need to have those conversations in 2007?

Obama is a fake, a fraud, a liar and a racist. The truth is out. It merely needs broad dissemination.

Apparently, one Lutheran pastor (of my synod) agrees with me on Obama's leaving. Check out The DUmmie FUnnies.
