These are the comments that I was responding to in the speech in question. I remember making these two specific controversial statements ..
(in regards to him taking the portions WAY out of context)
"Mr. President, you may read the Bible but you have obviously displayed that you lack the intelligence needed to comprehend it."
"Mr. President, if America is NOT a Christian nation ... than why did you feel it necessary to pretend to be one in order to get elected?"

Joshua, I don't know you from Adam. Have never even heard your name before. Don't know how much I agree with you about many things but I do agree with you in your remarks about our President and his misrepresentation of the role of Christianity in the history of America.
I am not one of those who believe he is secretly Muslim (I am not much of a conspiracy theorist like some on AFF) however it is clear he became a Christian and attended that large radical church in Chicago in order to have influence as a community organizer. I can't recall who it was but actually saw an interview in 2008 where a Chicago leader talked about telling Obama he needed to do this if he wanted to succeed.

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
