Did you not watch all 5 parts? Obama is talking about the role that religion and the religous have in politics. Perhaps the most important factor in domestic policy and key in recent elections.

If the only "real issue" you care about is whether or not we should revive the gold standard, then you are free to scream Ron Paul as much as you want. But there are a litany of issues that we are going to have to resolve in the future, and we need common sense and a clear view of reality to do so.

I want this guy as president. Not the guy we currently have. They ARE two different persons.

@alcraig Don't try to sneak one in! Your right! Trained since birth, TOLD by the word of God to judge anyone who says they are in the body of Christ w/o verifiable evidence. Your trying to defend this man but your not making it. HE SAYS HE'S A CHRISTIAN! He knows no one will accept him in this Christian nation, otherwise. He just can't stay in character. No one would call him one if didn't claim to be one, because he does not speak as one. We're going to call him the little horn! U feel me!

[alcraig]

Of course he is not a Christian because unlike you he has read the bible and realises it is a collection of stoneage fairytales. I don't expect you to accept this as you have been indoctrinated since birth not to challenge the religious dogma portrayed as fact despite any verifiable evidence. That Obama has been able to do this despite similar intensive indocrination further proves the greatness of the man. To convince an inherently good person to do something really evil you need religion

@alcraig Ummm yes. Good person, maybe. Worthy of being the U.S. President, nope! Not only because he is not a Christian, there are many people who claim to be Christians but do not follow the teachings of God. This man uses Christianity, cuts it down, then uses it again. Incase your not following his Admin., this man's is tatics are as far from Christianity as you can get, but still yet he says he's a Christian. Look...even you know he's not a Christian, but HE says he is!! GO O!!!!!

[alcraig]

@javavon5069 I have no idea what you are talking about. Is English your second language? Are you saying that because he is not a Christian heis not a good person

[MrBoggles]

he should be making this speech today. America. you need an overhaull. The rest of the modern world gets it why don't you? Religion + Politics = Bad News.

It saddens me.. we had the same problem in the middle ages as we do today.. religion standing in the way of the advancement and evolution of the human condition. we would be 1000 years more advanced than we are today.. And regretably it's reering it's head again. Perhaps in a few hundred years it might be gone. Religion has served it's purpose

[javavon5069]

This man is a project by the people (the upper room people). Y'all know who I'm talking about. They were most likely extremely charmed, you know how white people get around charming black people, and I do mean extremely charmed! It's like a pimp and his hoes, they was just playing with him...lol! Wake people this man is not a Christian and he plainly states that! That was his submission to a One World Religion to whoever he was talking to they was eating it like hot soup on a snowy day in Cali!

[javavon5069]

What is your position mann...

Respond to this video... ""A fool says in his heart there is not God" - Proverbs" you realize this is hateful to non-Christians? You are calling anyone who is non-Christian, Fools (about 4 billion people). I never once blamed Christians for every evil (even though I definitely would have a basis for that argument). I blame them for being irrational, biased, and intolerant to other religions and people. I blame them for taking faith over reason and evidence which seriously hinders the truth

[therabbithole999]

Respond to this video... I'm not trying to convert anyone, and I'm not Buddhist, just quoted Buddha. I am perfectly happy and at peace with my stance... In fact I am at more piece with myself since I abandoned religion and the constant threat of damnation. I live a moral life and don't fear God or hell. I am not hating your belief in God just the negativity when you say things such as "You can't be a Christian and deny the Bible as truth." and then deny half the moral teachings in it.

[therabbithole999]

@dirtyharrycallahan1 Hmm bible quotes don't work on non-believers. I never said there was no God anyway... I "don't know" since there is no proof but I am not completely shutting the door to the idea. If there is ever reasonable evidence to change my mind I will but right now the bible is not proof. I am not "pursuing hell" I don't have any reason to believe hell is real and definitely don't worry about it. I'm not hating just pointing out the irrationality in some of your beliefs.
