“I am a Christian.… So, I have a deep faith. I’m rooted in the Christian tradition. I believe that there are many paths to the same place, and that is a belief that there is a higher power, a belief that we are connected as a people.”

Many paths? Apparently his brand of Christianity and Bible are lacking John 14:6 (NIV)

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

Well, I don't think they read the Scriptures at his old church for the last 20 years. So how was he supposed to know Jesus is the Way, The Truth, and The Life? He surely hasn't heard of the way to the Father is through Me, or the narrow gate, etc.

I only wish a journalist was familiar enough with Scripture to ask him where the verse is that says you don't have to have Jesus for salvation. He said he found homosexuality was OK with God in the Sermon on the Mount. I looked but couldn't find it. It must be in the Afro-centric Bible. The King James doesn't have it.

I believe the John quote absolutely and completely, but the mainline denominations, and most especially the Episcopalian leadership say the same. Obama is quoting them Remember the “God cannot be contained in a little box” quote of the leader on one?? She then went on to say what is quoted above.
