Obama Not Christian By Birth
9/28/2010 by Winsip Custer CPW News Service
Michael Savage, the San Francisco based talk show host played a clip on his Tuesday, September 28th radio show of President Barak Obama saying "I am a Christian by Choice." Savage followed the clip by saying that given Obama's questionable background and the "birthers" claim that he is Muslim and not a Christian, that Mr. Obama has invited a potential fire storm of criticism.
The polling firm of Cotch, Crevitts, and Winkelmandenhoff of Miami made forty three hundred phone calls to Americans in the hours following Obama's remark with the simple questions...."Are you a Christian? Yes or No?" followed by "Were you born that way or did you become one?" Of those who responded 77.52% claimed to be Christians. Of that group 100% claimed they were not born that way. 50% of that group indicated that they did not believe that a person can be born a Christian.
We talked with Dr. Sibley G. Worthington of the Geneva School of Theology in Wharten, Maine. "This goes to the very heart of the definition of Christianity," said Dr. Worthington. "By definition an Orthodox Jew is born into the faith and must have a Jewish mother while the Reformed Jews accept an individual's conversion into the faith. Christians may baptize infants, but they rarely talk about being born into the Christian faith, because of Jesus' counsel that one must be 'born again'. Obama's remark was perfectly Kosher," said Dr. Worthington. "I mean perfectly legitimate," he said correcting his slip up.
The truth may set you free, but finding the truth is like playing tennis. You don't get a hint of it until you've returned the volley about three or four times. The mainstream media counts on the masses never returning what's served up. Journalism today has become a caricature not unlike what Robert Lynd describes by saying "Research without an actively selective point of view is like the ditty bag of an idiot, filled with bits of pebbles, straw, feathers and other random hoardings."
