This is such a crock. Obama made solid points about Old Testament Law and how many "Christians" seem to ignore these passages. Doesn't mean he is mocking anything, he is pointing out what it says. And about the Sermon on the Mound, he never said he disagreed with Jesus, but that our department of defense basically couldn't do what Christ instructed....which is TRUE. Then the narrator has the nerve to say Jesus didn't mean that when it came to AMERICA defending itself. Hypocrisy at it's finest.
@205whiteboy Unfortunately most people are stupid. They will see the title of this video and automatically believe it. Even if Obama didn't like Christianity, what politician in his right mind would openly mock it in public? That's a sure way to lose your election bid. It would make no sense at all.
Radical Islam is Islam. It hates anything not founded on Muhammad's teaching that Muslims are superior and anyone who believes different are to be killed without mercy. Muhammad was possessed by Satan in a cave to declare these beliefs in seizure like fits. He killed 600+ men by the sword and at 54 had sex with a 9 year old child.
you need to play more ominous music when showing obama speaking... maybe ted nugent, toby keith or hank williams jr, or that great family values man, lee greenwood, could help you out...
First off if there is a God I don't think he would choose one specific religion out of hundreds of others and say if u don't believe in this one religion u go to hell because he wouldn't be an asshole like that especially if you believe in an omnibenevilent God which is why I don't believe in religion
Uh, historians agree about "the most spiritually inspiring words every spoken by any religious leader." Wow, you are a fruitcake. The man speaks the truth, sorry you can't handle it. Not surprising, since your life is guided by a badly-written fantasy book.
@Iditarod5 "Uh. separation of church and state. Fantasy novels (the bible) have no place in government."--Yes, because fantasy novels usually have real places in them that you can still visit today. Fantasy books usually record real people who existed, such as Abraham, King Nebuchadnezzar, King Solomon, the Medo Persian empire, etc. I'm sure the archeological sites are the stuff of fantasy too. Separation of Church and State was also meant to protect the Church from government.
@tcbink you know what's a laughing matter? The day you split hell wide open and find out how dead wrong you were. You wont be playing philosopher in hell.. all you'll be doing is crying, screaming, thirsting, regreting that you did not believe the bible and do what it said. And it,ll be too late for you. Nothing will ever get you out of hell. And yes, somewhere over the rainbow at the end of the galaxy.. God is still God no matter what you spec of dust believe
@jct09100 There is no hell, moron. 5,000 religions on the planet and one must wonder how you just know that your one is the right one. You cannot comprehend the possibility that you are just plain wrong, and you think that using threats and fear will change minds. It's sad. You're behaving like a petulant child, which is all your silly little religion has taught you to do when a challenge of the mind arises.
Well obviously whoever made this video doesn't read their' bible very often or does not understand it very well! Also needs to get a life & act like an adult not a 5 yr old tattle tail but that's just my opinion.
Lol the bible does endorse slavery, anti beast rapings,anti gay... he did not take anything out of context, its just that during the era of the bible, those things existed... like slaves building pyramids in egypt.. so please keep your poorly edited video with a shitty thinking music to yourself
OH NO! IT'S INSPIRING TO CHRISTIANS! So we're supposed to murder everyone who's part of "America's Enemy" instead of trying to negotiate with them? Do you know what the ten commandments are, both? The first five fail, and the last two original fail even worse. And the one about yeast bread and don't cook a goat in it's mom's milk. Only 3 out of 17 are even laws (kill, steal, perjure)! And oh no, that guy is interpreting it differently! He was criticized by a Focus on the Family guy? HAHAHAHAHA!!
I think the Middle East is a good reason to not guide society with Religion. I don't care if it is Yahweh or Allah, neither are good examples of how we should live in this world. Both are evil manifested.
So wait... Deuteronomy gave us the Ten Commandments? I thought God, in the form of a burning bush, gave MOSES the Ten Commandments, who brought them down from the mountain, then smashed them because of what his people were doing at the time? Funny... Because that's what I learned in elementary school.
No offense, but the Obama-supporters who can't admit that he has failed as a president and is leading us into a socialist nation of entitlement, are just ... stupid and laughable. That's what I call blind support. This video may have been pieced together and misleading, but I do believe he is more pro-muslim and anti-other religions, not just anti-christian.
@AntiquatedPoet Well i don't believe he is a Socialist at all, he is more centrist than anything else. But i would like it very much if you could please explain why you believe he has failed us as a President.
the thing i love the most is its ok to not believe in god its ok to have any other faith no one will down you its frowned on to talk bad about any faith in the world but if you are a christen its open season anything can be said about us so why is it we are expected to leave u alone but its fine to tears us apart oh wait its in the bible
@jerryo86 The God of the Bible considers anyone who doesn't believe to be no greater than insects and a plague on the Earth that needs to be stamped out. Christianity has a long history of human rights violations and the blood of dead bodies on its hands. Then there is the hypocrisy of the church, and the arrogant "we have the only right way in life, and your wrong for what you believe and therefore Hell is in your future, so I praise God for he is worthy" attitude that all Christians carry.
You know, the Bible never said "slavery is okay" ... Christ just knew it was more wise for slaves to respect and obey their masters ruling them rather than resist and fight, which would cause bloodshed. Obama is so stupid and arrogant sometimes.
@AntiquatedPoet because he's educated? I don't think he's arrogant at all. His style of speech may be at times be interpreted as arrogant by ignorant individuals who can't look at a situation objectively.
Christ never said slaves obeying their masters would prevent bloodshed. You're just interpreting scripture and that's dangerous my friend.
@dynobot7 Uh, anybody who's been paying any attention to what this failure of a president has been doing this past three years, from enforcing the catholics to go against their conscience with birth control pills to throwing Israel under the bus so to speak regarding going back to the pre '67 borders to Obama care and so on. He thinks he can get away with anything and even admitted that if it weren't for that constitution in the way, he'd do more. Nice huh.
@AntiquatedPoet I never said Obama wasn't qouting the Bible. I said that he wasn't mocking the Bible. Unlike you, I don't let myself be led by misleading titles. Think about it: Why would any politician in America mock the Bible and think he could get elected to office?? That simply doesn't happen in our country. Even if Obama wasn't a christian, he isn't stupid enough to mock the Bible. Besides, in this vid he is simply saying why religion should not dictate public policy. He is right.
@dynobot7 About "interpreting the scripture" ... I am merely using commen sense and intellect. If slaves were to disobey their masters, violence, friction, uhheaval and yes, bloodshed would occur. Maybe there's no actual quote from Jesus but he implied that as he has taught about "turn thy cheeck" anybody with a brain can conclude that. And no, that is not dangerous to use logic to understand scripture.
@Velayasha Uh ... he said himself "which passages of scripture..." mentioning the book of Leviticus, Deutoronomy and so on. Last time I checked, that's about the Bible.
This country was founded freedom of religion ... any and all religions. It's in the constitution.
This video was most likely produced by right wing power players who use religion (or any other wedge issue that might work) to manipulate people to vote against their own best interest. View the youtube video Corpocracy or go to Michael D'Antuono's Art and Response site.
@SHAOLINSINZ: ...In your small plea you are insulting Muslims and THEIR holy leader. What would Jesus say about that? People read a science book instead of the Bible....
The Republicans are using religion for their own agenda. They want to control the sheep (yes that's how they call you) If you had to judge someone like Bush, would you send him to heaven? He killed millions of people. He destroyed homes, he didn't won the elections fairly...etc
@SHAOLINSINZ: Oh please? Seriously? Have you ever studied political history? Ever? Christians all over the world are involved in wars and propaganda. All over the world. It's just in Africa so obvious. Sudan? What if I would tell you that not Sudan but Congo, Rwanda,.. are much more dangerous? Look up their history.
The pope didn't want condoms to protect Africans from HIV, he simply declined. Wtf!
Look you are doing everything I hate about stereotypical religious people... (1/2)
@Velayasha: Does it really matter where it all began? Is that important?
What I hate about some so called Christians is that they are the most conservative people filled whit hatred in America. They want to control everything and everyone. They are against health care, they want war with Iran and they discriminate Muslims.
Why in the world would a women like you be part of something like that? You know that they discriminated blacks, women and every other minority in the world, right?
@RonPaulArabworld Christians do not do that...We disciminate against Muslims are you literally insane? we pray muslims wake up from their deluded religion that classes women as domestic animals (muhammads own words) and thinks its right to kill disbelievers. Go to Africa and tell all the Christians there they are the problem please do so, Its the muslims slaughtering women and children who are Christians NOT the other way round. Study Sudan. Your deluded if you think Christians hate.
@RonPaulArabworld Women stood all around Jesus on his cross and loved him. Because he respected women for women not for lusts and personal pleasures (unlike comparisons such as prophet muhammad who captured women in wars and then had sex with them even a 9 year old girl Aisha spoke of in the doctrine of the Qur'an).
Finally Christian's don't want war and if your that simple that you class someone a Christian just because they say they are then your missing the point. Know them by their fruits
@RonPaulArabworld You are quick to associate Christianity with everything bad. You are slow to recognize anything good from christians...if at all. Yes, there were christians who owned slaves. You fail to mention that the abolitionist movement that led to freedom was a christian led movement. You fail to mention the charities that feed the homeless and care for the sick. You fail to mention that Christianity does not mean right wing republicans. You fail to mention a lot.
@susansigue1 "Faith" does not deserve respect. It should be reviled as an assault on intelligence. To believe something without evidence is intellectual treason!!!
@Velayasha Unfortunately, you are most likely very right. As long as there are people on this Earth, there will be some that choose to disregard reality in favor of some ideology that gives them a false sense of superiority and security. Hopefully, though, enough of us will open our eyes so that we will not be the minority any longer. I don't express these ideas out of hatred for anyone. It is a love for humanity that drives me to seek the truth and help others to find their way there as well.
@RonPaulArabworld That's funny considering that scientific discoveries began in religious societies long before the modern atheist hate club tried to adopt science on your side. Unlike you, science has no agenda. It is not interested in being your weapon against faith.
@PhazonElitist You are completely incorrect. Obama never said it's ludicrous to take the Bible seriously. You are as gullible as the right wingers on here who let the title of this video form your opinion. Obama is not mocking the Bible at all.
the founding fathers of America, lived their lives according to the bible (the best they knew) they founded the country and goverment upon the ten commandments. hence the nation became the most weathiest and powerful nation on earth almost overnight...(its all there in those books Barak made fun of) after years of wealth and power we hailed ourselves, and no longer God. disregarding His word, even banning Him from our laws and lives altogether. that is why America is losing everything it has.
Sir, it seems to me that the people of America do not know what is in the bible, because they (the Christians) believe that homosexual relationships are immoral, as outlined in the bible, but turn a blind eye when it says that women should not speak in churches, as such an act would be shameful (1 Corinthians 14:34-35). It's nothing more than the cherry picking of a bronze age book by bigots! and I am somewhat proud that our president, flawed as he may be, can at least see this hypocrisy.
@sumanthkris777 Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.
Separation of church and state..ever hear of it?..no idea how people of faith think they can preach about ethics, scripture being so full of immoral teachings. religion has always gotten its morality from secular society, claiming it as its own, constantly changing what it considers to be moral or good because of pressure put on it by a society of evolving moralities. if not for non-religious, secular debate, we would still be in the dark ages, stoning children, as obama points out.
@vinyldigga America was founded on Christian morals.
athiests View us as animals not spiritual which there means that rape, murder, incest none of these things are wrong under the view of atheism because thats just a part of the animal kingdom and it happens, an atheist has no right to say whats wrong or right thats how distorted its world view is. An Atheist has no set morals an atheist cannot say this is good that is bad, because they believe morality is subjective. Atheists play God.
@vinyldigga You and I probably differ on where morals come from, but we agree on Separation of Church and State. I'm a christian, and I notice that people forget that Separation of Church and State is not only valuable because it protects the government from the Church, but it also protects the Church from government. This is what Obama was pointing out. My fellow christians are foolish for automatically thinking that Obama is mocking Christianity. He is not.
You're an idiot. "Did you not know that most Christians and historians agree that the semen on on the goat...". Just because one group of people believes something, doesn't make it true. Besides who gives a crap if they said so. Barrack is right, people shouldn't follow that book. If politics and religion mix, you end up having fuck ups like what happened with George Bush.
@DoctorS8n Jesus was not a Republican, so actually, fuck you! You have no idea about Jesus, poliotics, or democracy. You're just a punk whose parents should have cut your internet acess off after curfew. Go home, idiot. You are outmatched here.
@Velayasha great Christian love your showing to everyone. i could see where they would want to be Christians after you've cursed at them and acted so insecure. if you are a Christian, you're an extremely misguided one.
@penguineatswalrus Did you actually read the comments of DoctorS8n. whom I responded to? He deserved every word I said to him. And no, I am not interested in trying to convert everyone to Christianity. Chances are they have heard the Gospel and rejected it. Fuck 'em. I hope they convert one day, but it's not my job to hound someone into conversion. When people say something stupid like he did, I will call them on it. Being a christian doesn't mean sugar coating everything.
@Velayasha It doesn't matter what he said! Jesus said to pick up your cross and swallow your pride! Also Christianity isn't about converting anyone. It's the Good News! it's the Good News that Jesus died so that we could live in closeness with Him and would live in freedom in His spirit and weren't confided to a religion. Being a Christian is representing and glorifying Jesus so that others may see that Jesus has made a way for them and conquered death!
@penguineatswalrus Well, you go right ahead and be miss christian goody two shoes. I won't pretend to be anything more than what I am. I'm not all love and smiles. Sometimes the best way to handle people is by not letting them get away with it. If someone grabbed your ass, what are you gonna do? Smile and say God loves you?? That isn't being christian. It's being wimpy. At times the correct thing to do is to retaliate. Not play super christian.
@Velayasha Why do you think Jesus died? So we could be the same sinner we always have been?! No. He died so we could be a changed person. This is exactly what I mean. Pride doesn't allow a person to change and grow because you're stuck in the same mindset you always have been. And yes I agree, sometimes we have to stand up for ourselves, but Jesus also said to turn the other cheek. You can't have it both ways. You either are a Jesus follower and are a changed person or you're not.
@penguineatswalrus You, like most christians, do not understand what turn the other cheek means. It did not mean being a dishrag. Jesus was not some blonde haired, blue eyed, pacifist, hippie. Turning the other cheek didn't mean to back down. It was the equivalent of telling your enemies,"Is that all you got?"
@Velayasha Turning the other cheek means being humble in order to glorify Christ. By all means I think we should stand up for what we believe in, but you can't fight fire with fire. As I said, that's where pride can be used by Satan.
@penguineatswalrus I can see that you have not been reading the bible either. if you would read the entire bible, you would find out that God is not a humble God.
@penguineatswalrus after all the bible was only written by man and not Jesus or God, but by man, and who only knows what that man was thinking at that time. i believe in God and Jesus, but i do not trust the bible. and i do not trust what you are trying to say. every person has to have a certain amount of pride or he is worth nothing, there is no passage in the bible that tell you to have no pride.
@rosemarie443 It might have been, but God gave revelation to the people who wrote everything down. Also, i wasn't referring to pride as in being confident in yourself or what you've achieved, although that can sometimes be a sin. Well really, i'm referring to the pride that just gets between you and God. God can't get you to understand that you're in need of Jesus if you have pride. If pride becomes an idol, it's bad.
@Velayasha Yes you are correct, Jesus went into a temple trashed and over turned tables and beat false priests with cords wrapped up for blaspheming his father and shaming the name of the lord using the temple for making money. Jesus was blunt with his actions loving but Jesus once got stuck by a man and asked Why smitest thou? Jesus wanted an answer and demanded one. We have a right to protect ourselves as much as any other man. But being humble is the Christian way. Jesus was strong but humble
@SHAOLINSINZ NO Jesus just threw the false traders out of the temple, you know Shaolinsinz you have said several thinks that are not true. but you think that you are a christian and are a do gooder, well i don't think that you are. scientist and darwin have a theory as to how things came about, and the people who believe in God have a theory as to how things came about. I believe that God made humans, and i believe in God and Jesus, but i do not believe in the bible. there are to many loop holes
@rosemarie443 There are plenty of people who believe in God and Jesus, but not the Bible. The muslims fall into that category. Are you muslim? Anyways, you are wrong about the Bible having loopholes and all these so called contradictions. That's an accusation usually made by people with a limited understanding of the Bible. I believe you let them fool you that the Bible is against science. It is not.
@Velayasha yep, Believing someone exists is not believing they died for you ormade a true sacrifice nor is it seeing that Jesus is God in therefore demands worship for that alone, There is no higher, no one or nothing tops Jesus it just takes those who dont stand still for a while to realise. Your right even Muslims acknowledge Jesus existed, Even the Romans and a few historians recognised and clariified the crucifixion of Christ. Even Satan (Lucifer) acknowledge Jesus Christ. Faith is not that
@SHAOLINSINZ I do see your point, but I break the issue down into the lack of basic human respect. I, as a christianwould never go to a Hindu, and tell them how foolish their gods are, or mock their religion. Even though I disagree, I have respect and would not mock their religion and culture. I demand that people, no matter what their beliefs are, do the same for christians. If they can't do that, then they should expect retaliation.
@Velayasha I understand, some people do lack respect. One thing i'm sure you know is Christians are the most persecuted people in history more than any racial massacres taken place in history. "If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you." -John 15:18,19 God bless.
@Velayasha No wonder Paul the Apostle (formerly Saul) said that he was the chief of sinners, for it was the same Saul mentioned in the verses who was Roman elite army. Paul was a murderer of Christians before he became saved and before Christ confronted him. This is proof that anyone can be saved, no matter what they have done. The only unpardonable sin is to reject Jesus as Saviour. To reject Jesus is to blaspheme Christ's Spirit (Romans 8:9-11).
@rosemarie443 how wrong you are, a Do gooder is not a Christian...a Christian is someone who has belief and faith in Jesus Christ. NO ONE IS GOOD. Where did i claim to be a do gooder? and if your going to deny scripture of what Jesus did in the template please be prepared to post if to prove your point, otherwise i will to prove the gospel of Christ and the diety of Christ. We have Anger in us because Christ and God got angry at evil. Jesus was not Weak! As for denying the Bible the word IS GOD
@rosemarie443 he FACT is that Jesus did get angry sometimes...real angry...so angry that He actually fabricated a whip of cords, went into the temple, and started beating people. Jesus started flipping their tables over, hurling everything onto the temple floor. People were fleeing the temple for fear.
@rosemarie443 They probably said ,"This guy has gone crazy...we're out of here!" Jesus let their doves go free (costing them a financial loss). He threw their money all over the floor... "And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables" -John 2:15
@rosemarie443 if you believe in God why do you support Darwins evolution theory which teaches we are nothing but animals you can't believe in Jesus Christ and Darwin that's like supporting the Nazi's while being a hippy. Maybe you should consider how you are, what you believe instead of concerning with me what i know, how i live or who i am. Because in the end it comes down to the word and if you think God could not keep his word preserved who is underestimating God?
@rosemarie443 "If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD; Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses." (Deuteronomy 28:58-59)
@rosemarie443 "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name." (Ps 138:2)
"Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar." (Proverbs 30:5-6)
Gods word is how we know Jesus christ his express person which was God revealed through Jesus. You need the word.
@Velayasha You still need to remember that it's not about converting people it is indeed about bringing the good news and although it may not touch people now if you leave people with a humble feeling seeing something in you they don't see in themself they will know Christ and the Holy spirit is real. I saw it in others i admired wondered where they got their joy from while i needed so many temporary happinesses to keep me happy in life. It's what you leave people with. Seeds planted.
@SHAOLINSINZ I'm all for planting seeds, and showing humility in most situations, but when someone is blatantly being an asshole, it is time to put the sword to good use.
@Velayasha I know how you feel because i was always one who never liked being taken for a mug specially where i'm from but since i knew Christ i let all that ego, pride and animosity go. I just see bigger things and when i do see swines who want you to cast them pearls i guess there is two ways to deal with it, either help them and see how they take knowledge or don't and leave them be. I think everyone deserves a chance, but when it comes to accepting Christ. Timing is everything.
@Velayasha Oh really? is that the best you can do? I'm an Atheist liberal I have plenty of ideas about Jesus and the bullshit that followed. As for out matched If you are talking about yourself, your talking out your arse darling!
@DoctorS8n You're an atheist?? Wow. What a suprise there. How does that qualify you to know what you're talking about. So far, all I hear from you is blind hatred. Hatred does not equate to intelligence.
I never showed an ounce of hate, maybe bad humor, but I don't hate people.I hate religion because it is the ultimate corruption of mankind, it is used as a tool to influence and brainwash those who are poorly educated or weak minded. I'm also a firm believer in Science and Evolution not fairy tales like the religious.

@Slayton701 What a typical religious fanatical response. insult then question.Your answer is that I grew a brain unlike most of the Religious nutters.I read the bible from cover to cover unlike most who just read the back for the excitement.
@DoctorS8n - Sooo you read the Old Testament back & forth or the New Testament ? And also once you read either one of them or both, What made you choose
to become an Atheist ? you sound like an intelligent person
@Slayton701 There are so many different religious books out there claiming to be THE truth. As an intelligent person, how did you settle on the bible?
@briantw1 - One I believe in GOD, & that Jesus died for our sins. Two - You have free will to believe in whatever you choose . Three I wasnt even talking to you end of discussion .
@Slayton701 I never asked what you believe in - that is irrelevant and silly. I do wonder which of the many, many gods that people believe in around the world is the real one. And you would like it if you could decide when discussion ended, wouldn't you? That is exactly what religion teaches you - don't question, don't think for yourself.
"I think he's deliberately distorting the traditional understanding of the Bible to fit his own world view, his own confused theology"--this is EXACTLY what YOU are doing, Dobson and rosaryfilms!
Obama did not "distort" one single thing here -- directly quoting the Bible is not a distortion nor painfully out of context. What Obama here references is no more out of context than the same passages used for any number of outrageous prejudices held by fundamental Christians today. Pure hypocrisy.
Thought you might want to be enlightened. ;D Just sayin'.
The Ten Commandments appear twice in the Hebrew Bible, in the books of Exodus and Deuteronomy. According to the story in Exodus, God inscribed them on two stone tablets, which he gave to Moses on Mount Sinai.
The 10 commandments are found in Genesis NOT Deuteronomy. You folks should try reading the Bible next time. Thanks for pointing out your own ignorance.
@LetsGetHighOnMorris Because those books and laws are the old testament or the old law before Jesus came, and when Jesus came he broke the old laws and became the sacrificial lamb. Thus we have the New Law the or New Testament. Obama is mocking the Bible by using the old law out of context.
Anyone have any idea when "everyone" will evolve past this religious nonsense? I mean seriously...what is it going to take to get people to think for themselves and give up on some book written by men thousands of years ago? I think I'll believe in Harry Potter,..no wait..Twilight.
Since when can the application and condoning of slavery be taken out of context? Deuteronomy instructs slave owners how to properly discipline slaves, telling them that they can pretty much beat them to near death.
Since Mr Obama refers to the "Sermon on the Mount", maybe he read the part about the Hypocrites (mockers) that will "get their reward". Its in Matthew Ch 6 in case you wish to read it for yourself.
"We hate Christians and Christianity. Even the best of them must be considered our worst enemies. They preach love of one's neighbor and mercy, which is contrary to our principles. Christian love is an obstacle to the development of the Revolution. Down with love of our neighbor! What we want is hate... Only then can we conquer the universe." - Anatole Lunarcharsky, Russian Commissar of Education
"[R]eligion, or the duty which we owe to our creator, and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and therefore all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and this is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity towards each other." --Virginia Bill of Rights, Article 16, 1776
@penguineatswalrus Oh please! If Jesus were on the Earth today, he would be disgusted by you Republicans. You guys are farther away from Christianity than most liberals.
@Velayasha I'm not so sure Jesus would be good with institutionalized murder of unborn Children. Or, stealing the product of one man's labor to reward another who serves The Party. He sure wouldn't want Government controlling (and oppressing) religion again.
I'm pretty sure Jesus would agree with Republican notions like personal charity (instead of stealing), treating all people equal regardless of skin color, government keeping its hands off religion.
@Velayasha I take it you're a liberal. That's a typical defensive response i hear from a lot of liberals. If you're a Christian, don't straddle the fence. Also, nations for thousands of years have been founded on conservative values and survived. the ones that strayed from God's rules and values (conservative ones) perished. Go figure. :>/
@penguineatswalrus Christians are suppose to help the poor what conservative does that? You can pick and choose what verses you want to support whatever you want, so guess you have selective reading.
@hydrolito >> Christians are suppose to help the poor what conservative does that?
Aside from the Salvation Army, Conservatives give far more to charities than liberals. That is on top of what is extorted from them through illegal taxation/redistribution schemes.
The Salvation Army, Christian Missions, funding of medical centers, libraries, schools and so on.
@hydrolito in event of a world crisis where people need help any where in the world, Christians are first on the scene, That's one fact people can't deny, The truth is i was the type to pass off Jesus with every other religion as organised religion to control the minds of man and i think many relate to this, But it was the unique love i found in Christians, Truth i couldn't deny that led me to pray for salvation for Jesus, it's about finally understanding and taking the time to understand.
@hydrolito yeah okay well liberals have no room to talk either. you people are letting this whack-job stay in office when he wants israels border to shrink down to the size of a speck. Israel's been our ally for years. Also liberals can call themselves "great humanitarians", but youre going around aborting babies. :>/
This is such a crock. Obama made solid points about Old Testament Law and how many "Christians" seem to ignore these passages. Doesn't mean he is mocking anything, he is pointing out what it says. And about the Sermon on the Mound, he never said he disagreed with Jesus, but that our department of defense basically couldn't do what Christ instructed....which is TRUE. Then the narrator has the nerve to say Jesus didn't mean that when it came to AMERICA defending itself. Hypocrisy at it's finest.

@205whiteboy Unfortunately most people are stupid. They will see the title of this video and automatically believe it. Even if Obama didn't like Christianity, what politician in his right mind would openly mock it in public? That's a sure way to lose your election bid. It would make no sense at all.

Radical Islam is Islam. It hates anything not founded on Muhammad's teaching that Muslims are superior and anyone who believes different are to be killed without mercy. Muhammad was possessed by Satan in a cave to declare these beliefs in seizure like fits. He killed 600+ men by the sword and at 54 had sex with a 9 year old child.

@Iditarod5 "Uh. separation of church and state. Fantasy novels (the bible) have no place in government."--Yes, because fantasy novels usually have real places in them that you can still visit today. Fantasy books usually record real people who existed, such as Abraham, King Nebuchadnezzar, King Solomon, the Medo Persian empire, etc. I'm sure the archeological sites are the stuff of fantasy too. Separation of Church and State was also meant to protect the Church from government.

@Velayasha You still need to remember that it's not about converting people it is indeed about bringing the good news and although it may not touch people now if you leave people with a humble feeling seeing something in you they don't see in themself they will know Christ and the Holy spirit is real. I saw it in others i admired wondered where they got their joy from while i needed so many temporary happinesses to keep me happy in life. It's what you leave people with. Seeds planted.

@SHAOLINSINZ I'm all for planting seeds, and showing humility in most situations, but when someone is blatantly being an asshole, it is time to put the sword to good use.

@Velayasha I know how you feel because i was always one who never liked being taken for a mug specially where i'm from but since i knew Christ i let all that ego, pride and animosity go. I just see bigger things and when i do see swines who want you to cast them pearls i guess there is two ways to deal with it, either help them and see how they take knowledge or don't and leave them be. I think everyone deserves a chance, but when it comes to accepting Christ. Timing is everything.

I never showed an ounce of hate, maybe bad humor, but I don't hate people.I hate religion because it is the ultimate corruption of mankind, it is used as a tool to influence and brainwash those who are poorly educated or weak minded.

@Slayton701 I never asked what you believe in - that is irrelevant and silly. I do wonder which of the many, many gods that people believe in around the world is the real one. And you would like it if you could decide when discussion ended, wouldn't you? That is exactly what religion teaches you - don't question, don't think for yourself.

"I think he's deliberately distorting the traditional understanding of the Bible to fit his own world view, his own confused theology"--this is EXACTLY what YOU are doing, Dobson and rosaryfilms!
Obama did not "distort" one single thing here -- directly quoting the Bible is not a distortion nor painfully out of context. What Obama here references is no more out of context than the same passages used for any number of outrageous prejudices held by fundamental Christians today. Pure hypocrisy.

The Ten Commandments appear twice in the Hebrew Bible, in the books of Exodus and Deuteronomy. According to the story in Exodus, God inscribed them on two stone tablets, which he gave to Moses on Mount Sinai.

LetsGetHighOnMorris 2 days ago
@LetsGetHighOnMorris Because those books and laws are the old testament or the old law before Jesus came, and when Jesus came he broke the old laws and became the sacrificial lamb. Thus we have the New Law the or New Testament. Obama is mocking the Bible by using the old law out of context.

Since when can the application and condoning of slavery be taken out of context? Deuteronomy instructs slave owners how to properly discipline slaves, telling them that they can pretty much beat them to near death.

Since Mr Obama refers to the "Sermon on the Mount", maybe he read the part about the Hypocrites (mockers) that will "get their reward". Its in Matthew Ch 6 in case you wish to read it for yourself.

"We hate Christians and Christianity. Even the best of them must be considered our worst enemies. They preach love of one's neighbor and mercy, which is contrary to our principles. Christian love is an obstacle to the development of the Revolution. Down with love of our neighbor! What we want is hate... Only then can we conquer the universe." - Anatole Lunarcharsky, Russian Commissar of Education

"[R]eligion, or the duty which we owe to our creator, and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and therefore all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and this is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity towards each other." --Virginia Bill of Rights, Article 16, 1776

@Velayasha I'm not so sure Jesus would be good with institutionalized murder of unborn Children. Or, stealing the product of one man's labor to reward another who serves The Party. He sure wouldn't want Government controlling (and oppressing) religion again.
I'm pretty sure Jesus would agree with Republican notions like personal charity (instead of stealing), treating all people equal regardless of skin color, government keeping its hands off religion.

@Velayasha I take it you're a liberal. That's a typical defensive response i hear from a lot of liberals. If you're a Christian, don't straddle the fence. Also, nations for thousands of years have been founded on conservative values and survived. the ones that strayed from God's rules and values (conservative ones) perished. Go figure. :>/

Aside from the Salvation Army, Conservatives give far more to charities than liberals. That is on top of what is extorted from them through illegal taxation/redistribution schemes.
The Salvation Army, Christian Missions, funding of medical centers, libraries, schools and so on.
Liberals love to give - someone else's money.

@hydrolito in event of a world crisis where people need help any where in the world, Christians are first on the scene, That's one fact people can't deny, The truth is i was the type to pass off Jesus with every other religion as organised religion to control the minds of man and i think many relate to this, But it was the unique love i found in Christians, Truth i couldn't deny that led me to pray for salvation for Jesus, it's about finally understanding and taking the time to understand.
