"I am certain without a doubt that Barack Hussein Obama is NOT a Christian. It's unfortunate that Rev. Graham and Rick Santorum won't be completely honest about Barack Obama even though his deeds are contrary to Christian values.

"Both these men oppose Obama's recent contraceptive mandate and assault on the Christian conscience. They know that for 20 years Obama worshipped in Rev. Jeremiah Wright's racist Black Liberation Theology-based church. They fully grasp the spiritual connection America has with Israel and see that Obama is no friend of the Jewish State. Rev. Graham has said that Obama is more concerned with the plight of Muslims than the Christians that are being murdered in the Muslim countries. Still these Christian leaders cannot tell the truth about Obama. Why?

"I do agree with Santorum that this is a 'spiritual war' and that 'Satan is targeting the U.S.' which is precisely why I believe Barack Obama was selected and elected. I'm convinced that the weak-kneed timidity that's preventing many white conservative Christians from pointing out Obama's wickedness is a result of their fear of being labeled 'racist.'

"Evil understands that most white Christians have been intimidated and are too afraid to stand up to it. Especially when it is operating in the form of an American hating Socialist black president who appears to be more in harmony with Muhammad than he is with Christ."

Support for contraception isn't an "assault on the Christian conscience". Roman Catholics and the Amish forbid artificial contraception (and the Catholic position was determined single-handedly by the Pope, ex cathedra, in opposition to the opinion of majority of theologians he commissioned to study the question). Most Protestant denominations either allow it or are silent on the issue. Baptists had no problem with it either until the Dubya years. Then all of a sudden, they started moving to the RC position.

Support for contraception may be against Peterson's version of Christianity, but he certainly doesn't speak for all Christians.

"I am certain without a doubt that Barack Hussein Obama is NOT a Christian."

Yeah, he says he's a Christian, he goes to church, he doesn't attend a mosque, but you're certain he's not a Christian because... uh... you really want him to not be a Christian.

"It's unfortunate that Rev. Graham and Rick Santorum won't be completely honest..."

They don't agree with my delusion, so they are being dishonest.

"...about Barack Obama even though his deeds are contrary to Christian values."

Yeah, Jesus would be against taking our troops out of Iraq and trying to get health care for the poor.

"Especially when it is operating in the form of an American hating Socialist black president..."

I dare say you probably don't really know what socialism is. I AM sure you know what black is and I find it telling that you feel its important to include in your list of the president's faults.

I am certain without a doubt that Jesus was NOT a Christian.

Instead of helping to secure free trade rights and massive tax-free profits for the merchants in the temple, he had them thrown out!

Instead of having the adulteress executed by good, God fearing capital punishment, he stopped her execution.

Instead of protecting everybody's Second Amendment rights (praise the Lord!) to guns, guns, guns, he taught non-violence and didn't even protect himself when he was arrested.

He spent his time with whores and yucky poor people instead of with the conservative rich.

It's unfortunate that Rick Santorum won't be completely honest about Jesus and say what a horrible, non-christian pinko liberal piece of scum he was.

an American hating Socialist black president

Oh, come on, just say there's a fucking dirty nigger in the White House. You know you want to. It's unfortunate that you won't be completely honest about Obama and beat around the bush instead of saying what you mean.

"I am certain without a doubt that Barack Hussein Obama is NOT a Christian."

How do ya know? He certainly behaves like one (well, the nicer/less nasty kind of Xians). I guess he could have been faking it from the start, for some weird reason, but you'd pretty much have to be a mind reader to know it for sure. Is that it? Are you a psychic? Well, you know what the Bible says about that kind of things: BURN THE WITCH!!!!

'...Obama is no friend of the Jewish State'.

When the Israelis recently awarded Obama the Presidenial Medal of Distinction (the highest civilian award in their country) he was described as “a true friend of the State of Israel” who has made a “unique and significant contribution to strengthening the State of Israel and the security of its citizens,”

Seems the Israelis themselves see things rather differently to Reverend Peterson.

Well, why should the Israelis give a shit about the opinion of a nutjob who only cares about them as Apocalypse-fodder? They don't share his delusions, and they intend to be around for a long time.
