Are you concerned about Barack Obama making fun of the Bible? He makes references to the Old Testament as well as the New Testament!?

Answered As a person of the Jewish faith, I am disgusted with him
I think what he said wipes out what he said about being a Christian. A Christian wouldn't mock what the bible says even if they don't understand it or necessarily agree with it. The difference between other religions and Muslim is that the Muslims(at least the ones we hear from) have no respect for other religions, only theirs. They don't think anything of destroying temples or attacking on the holiest day of the Jewish year, etc. They get a lot more respect than any other religion and deserve it less. However, there are more of them, so I guess everybody is scared of them. I would rather be dead than live under Sharia law and any self-respecting woman would feel the same. I know there are many moderate Muslims, but unfortunately so many of them are either afraid or secretly support their radicals. Other religious people are ready to throw anyone under the bus who doesn't respect others. -

Anybody who believes Islam is a religion of peace needs to have their heads examined. They have no problem killing Jews or Christians......and if Hindus or Buddists were in their path they'd be killing them too. They are very antisemitic and would wipe Israel out if given the opportunity. We need to stand with Israel.....it does not surprise me that they attacked on the holiest day of the Jewish year. They should remember that we did not attack them in the past during Ramadan.

Here are some of the things that Islam stands for....

Answered Should we be surprised? Look who his Preacher was for 20 years!
Obama claims he left Islam to Christianity, but here he attacks the Bible in the national television and while campaigning for the primaries.

Answered None of the above
People will take the Bible in any context they want, and like Obama, a lot of people don't realize that they are mislead. The same thing goes for Obama's words. It's not ideal that he's our candidate, but we do need a democrat in the White House. This doesn't change my opinion on him one bit. -

Hi Alexis. Hope you had a fun vacation.
This was on another poll. I forwarded it to my sister the 'forwarding fool'
and it made her angry. She'll run this one all over the country. :o) -

I think you are just looking in a mirror when you look at him. He reflects back anything you want and love. That is scary! If you can't see how scary it is that so many people think he will satisfy their every need. That's how con men and dictators come into power. No one but someone I personally know could get my deepest respect and love. You can only go for the past how someone will probably act. His past has been a series of bad decisions, from deliberately picking some of the most radical people he could find to mentor him. I, at first, thought it was a coincidence that he knew and was friends of so many shady or radical people. From reading his book, I realized that he deliberately chose these people to mentor him because he always had aspirations of being president.

I didnt see him as a Christian. His Pastor Teaches Racism not Christianity.
