What is a chrstian and is president obama one????

[~Serenity~]

haha dont be sorry xD
i dont care if someone doesnt like obama. but not liking him on reasons like "he isnt christian enough!!!111" is just a little silly. we should like/not like him over the things hes doing for our country, not where he's sitting sunday morning.

Hear hear!

Does it really matter if Obama's a Christian or not?
For all I care, he can be an athiest or whatever he wants.
Does religion really matter how this country's going to be run?
I'd rather a/an (insert religion here) president who can actually run the country, as opposed to a president who's morals affect the entire nation in a bad way.

No one on this board can judge whether Obama is a Christian. Only God can.

No one can judge whether he is a good Christian. He is a Christian as much as anyone in your church.

A Christian believes in God has given their life to Christ and really doesn't have to do anything but be forgiven and preach Jesus' name. Now this sounds easy but people are killed by the thousand's because they believe in Christ. Obama is a christian but not as much as we probably want him to be. Now I'm not a perfect christian far from it but Obama 1isn't in church 2 had a wacky atheist pastor 3believes in abortion so there is several things to be worked out

Um, actually we can. God gives us the ability to tell who's "good" or whose "bad". We pray for Him to let us know who is of the light, and who is of the darkness.

woah. really?
i'm no longer a practicing christian, but when i was, during my confirmation classes i learned that only God can judge...
maybe i was being taught the "wrong" thing, but seriously, i don't believe anyone has the right to judge someone else, regardless of whether or not they have prayed for the "ability" to judge.

honstly who cares if someone is gay/bi/transgendered
does that change who they are inside?

Kelsey, love ya for saying that.

I'll love who I want to love, and no one is gonna change that. No one. Ever. I honestly don't give a rat's rear end what anyone thinks of me.

Judging is what we call descrimination, the words go hand in hand.
Hope ya have fun discriminating people

And just to speak up for the Transgendered community for a moment, one of my best friends is trans, and I still love her all just the same. She's such a good, loving person, and I honestly don't care if she feels as if she should've been born male.

I am not judging. Christians can tell the difference between a believer- and a non-believer. Simple as that.

But you're saying certain Christians are better than others.
There's a difference between a non-believer and someone who you think doesn't practice their religion adequately.

I'm saying that there are christians who are "lost" and need to change their views on things. No christian is perfect, but we try and be as close to perfection in Christ as possible. Some christians are just not trying their best. ie Obama

 

[princesskelz]

well im one of those "lost" christians
im pretty sure im in Bel Air MD right now but i need a map.
that was a joke
