Obama Mocks and Attacks Jesus Christ And The Bible. A top U.S. evangelical leader is accusing Sen. Barack Obama of deliberately distorting the Bible and taking a "fruitcake interpretation" of the U.S. Constitution. In comments aired on his radio show, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson criticized the Democratic presidential nominee for comments he made in a June 2006 speech to the liberal Christian group Call to Renewal. In the speech, Obama suggested that it would be impractical to govern based solely on the word of the Bible, noting that some passages suggest slavery is permissible and eating shellfish is disgraceful. "Which passages of scripture should guide our public policy?" Obama asked in the speech. "Should we go with Leviticus, which suggests slavery is OK and that eating shellfish is an abomination? Or we could go with Deuteronomy, which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith? Or should we just stick to the Sermon on the Mount? "So before we get carried away, let's read our Bible now," Obama said, to cheers. "Folks haven't been reading their Bible." He also called Jesus' Sermon on the Mount "a passage that is so radical that it's doubtful that our Defense Department would survive its application." Dobson said Obama should not be referencing antiquated dietary codes and passages from the Old Testament that are no longer relevant to the teachings of the New Testament. "I think he's deliberately distorting the traditional understanding of the Bible to fit his own world view, his own confused theology," Dobson said, adding that Obama is "dragging biblical understanding through the gutter." Dobson said the suggestion is an attempt to lead by the "lowest common denominator of morality." "Am I required in a democracy to conform my efforts in the political arena to his bloody notion of what is right with regard to the lives of tiny babies?" he asked. "What he's trying to say here is, unless everybody agrees, we have no right to fight for what we believe." "What the senator is saying there, in essence, is that 'I can't seek to pass legislation, for example, that bans partial-birth abortion, because there are people in the culture who don't see that as a moral issue,' " Dobson said. "And if I can't get everyone to agree with me, than it is undemocratic to try to pass legislation that I find offensive to the Scripture. Now, that is a fruitcake interpretation of the Constitution." In a stunning display of ignorance- and in a speech you will NOT see in the mainstream media, because even they apparently understand how ignorant Obama was on the issue, Obama exposes his disdain for Christians, and exposes his disdain for the word of God, by taking the typical, petty, ignorant position, that the bible advocated slavery and the stoning of children, apparently implying that Christians should live their faith by reinstating customs that were obviously secular laws that were in place in a time long ago. Obama not so subtly implied that Christians are hypocrites because they dont agree to put themselves back under the laws of Moses that are no logner relevent to Christians today! The laws of Moses were a Jewish-only set of laws. Barack Obama claims he found the Lord, whatever that means to him, but his obvious contempt for Gods word exposes the fact that Christ is not the one in control of his heart. His speech was a blatant misrepresentation of Christianity, and it was a speech whos intent was to malign and denigrate Christians, and to denigrate this great nation of ours. Stoning children for blatant disrespect of parents and of God, was a Jewish-only commandment meant to purge evil from among Gods elected people. Nowhere in the bible does God command anyone other than His own elected people, the Jews, to purge evil in such a manner. Barack Obama however is apparently too ignorant of biblical truth to realize this fact, and apparently he feels that he is big enough to call Gods commandments toward the Jews into question? Obama is also apparently too ignorant of Gods word to understand that Christians today are not under the law of Moses, and that many edicts in the bible were meant to tell the people that they needed to obey ALL laws, even the secular laws which included laws that allowed slaves, and that the Jews were not just bound to the laws that God instated, but also to the cultural laws at that time. Obama may not like that- because it completely refutes his petty attempt at maligning God, Gods word, Christians and htis great nation of ours. Obama may claim to be a Christian, and he may even succeed in fooling a couple of people, but to those who know better, we see very clearly that his words betray what he claims his heart stands for.

  • @minalora He wasn't really mocking the Religious establishment Jesus doesn't mock he just wants the truth to be known. In this instance he is against organised forms of religion because they are not bringing a relationship with Christ of whom is the saviour and the Son of God. He was insulted by the Blasphemy of the Churches against his father, their hypocritical behaviour and just the fact that they do not glorify God but shame him with their self righteous behaviour and false gospel.

  • @TheEkstaza Many israelites indeed were lost since they followed Judaism instead of the actual saviour Jesus Christ. “Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3:6) Many jews were to they denied Jesus was the Son of God and the Benjamin Jews actually helped to Kill to Jesus. As for the Canaanites they were disliked for being pagan and wicked . The Canaanites sacrificed their babies to Baal (their principal god), and to Ashtoreth (Baal’s wife);

  • @InteGrayting2 ; Nobody is disputing these things are in the Bible...but let me ask you this: Do you claim to know all there is in the Bible? Every jot and tittle is understood? If so, then you claim to have the mind of God and you make yourself to be a liar.

  • @TheEkstaza I've presented much. Why don't you present an argument why the bible is a lie. So far i've heard nothing but emotion from Bible haters. If this 'superstitious' book was so easy to disprove and throw out the window with its so called 'Contradictions' then you would have atheists all day long doing a good job of putting down the bible. But that never happens. Infact the only way a man can put down the bible is by reading it like a moron and nit picking at chapters.

  • @TheEkstaza Maybe do it with your eyes open while leaving the house more often? I dont know but i've travelled the world to over 36 countries and all i can say to you is to deny God's existence to me means you really struggle to see the truth in the creation of the world. I say woe to those who serve creatures over the creator. For living for self righteousness is of no benefit to ones self. Why dont you travel to the thousands of places spoke about in the Bible which actually exist?

  • All I can say as Christain, I will pray for you Mr President and I do feel so sorry for you.

  • Turning the other cheek was actually a huge insult back then. So was giving someone your coat who was going to punch you. It's like today if someone punched you and you made a joke about your grandmom hitting harder.

  • @Deke101 indeed so in those times he was viewed as mocking the religious establishment, he also introduced the revolutionary truth that people can talk to God directly no need to go through Rabi's paying alms etc... I am just saying I don't see how Obama's speech goes against Jesus as claimed in the video, and for that matter not even against Old Testament - he was speaking the truth. Blessings.

  • @minalora Jesus' ideas could definitely be considered revolutionary. He destroyed the temple where the money changers were doing business in the temple. He walked among beggars and prostitutes, something that the religious elite of that time would never do.

  • - OBVIOUSLY - this CommentTATER is DEVILishly cleaver - .
