After the Blagojevich Scandal all eyes are on Barack Obama. As he is the future leader of our nation, what does he believe? I want look at this in a few parts over the course of a few weeks. So first, what does Obama Believe about the big three questions that a posed in my first blog. I will give you what I think about this by looking at what he said over the course of the campaign.

1. What does Obama believe about God, Man and truth.

Well on first glance things look pretty good for the Conservative, Christian Base.

Michelle Vu a Christian Post Reporter said in 2007 that Obama was not like the rest of democrats who dislike Christianity and quotes him in a speech:

Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama is overturning the traditional view that Republicans are the religious-talking lawmakers with his faith speeches and frequent church visits on the campaign trail.

 “I think that what you’re seeing is a breaking down of the sharp divisions that existed maybe during the ‘90’s,” Obama said, according to CNN Monday. “At least in politics, the perception was that the Democrats were fearful of talking about faith, and on the other hand you had the Republicans who had a particular brand of faith that oftentimes seemed intolerant or pushed people away.”

The junior Illinois senator stood in the pulpit of a Pentecostal church Sunday to challenge the partisan religious perception by telling some 4,000 worshippers that faith “plays every role” in his life.

Looks good right? Well she goes on to make some great points. But lets pause for a second and look at what he said first.

1. “Faith plays a role in every life” What faith? He doesn’t say. Faith in Jesus? How could we know? Faith in God? We can’t even determine that. Everyone has faith in something. Whether it is a Maker or just Matter. But he doesn’t specify. If you think I am hard on the poor guy think of this. If we can faith in whatever we want, we can do whatever we want (big questions 2 and 3). It is deadly important.

She goes on:

Obama, although saying he personally does not support homosexuality, has refused to
support a constitutional amendment banning homosexual “marriage.” Also, although Obama personally opposes abortion, he refuses to support overturning Roe v. Wade.

“The problem is that all of this ‘God Talk’ misses the point: what Christians want – or should want – is a candidate who shares their moral and culture concerns, not just their religious vocabulary.”   

She is dead on. Realize, for the next four years our country will most likely tip in the direction of this man. He will be the most powerful man on earth for nearly half a decade. But we have no idea what his worldview actually is. We just know what it isn’t
