Obama "Wrestling" With Faith and LGBT Issues

For one to be wrestling with oneself one would first need to be doing something that would cause contradiction. There has been nothing to date that Obama has done that should cause him to to feel this way. Where in bible does it say that homosexuals can't serve openly in the military? Why would it be anti-Christian to say that one can't be discriminated against based on their sexual orientation? Mr. Obama, if you're honestly wrestling with those issues and your faith then you may want to take a long hard look in the mirror and ask yourself if you are even truly Christian. WWJD? I don't think the answer is discriminate and reinforce hate.

You're not wrestling, Mr. President. You're not doing ANYTHING. How many betrayals will it take from national Democrats before GLBT Americans wake up?

Obama is a poopie head.

I know I'm always willing to submit to taking second class status as a citizen, suffer discrimination at work, all of that, whenever a politician is "wrestling" with his faith. That's the important thing, really? The politician's faith. Absolutely that's why I vote them in - so they can ignore the moral crisis they see before them, abandon the weak and traumatized, and overlook the hate and brutality while they "wrestle" with their faith. Isn't it great we all seem to belong to some other freak's screwed up church when it comes to public policy in a sectarian nation? Gotta love it.

I wonder how Obama feels about slavery in the Bible, which is clearly allowed: However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way. (Leviticus 25:44-46 NLT) As a gay Christian, I do not wreastle with this issue as I know that the Bible is wrong. Maybe our Prez needs to grow up.

I feel very sorry for PJR. I would like to also apologize to all who have made comments here on this story, for my allowing this brain dead christian PJR to distract me from the headline. I won't be wasting anymore of my or your time with bantering about with it or him or her, whatever PJR is. Would anyone like to go with me to a christian site and spread hatred and ignorance there. Maybe we should be better than they are, and not stoop to their level.

to PJ.... WOW!!!!! How much Kool Aid DID you drink?!?!? Wait, don't tell me....your previous post says it all.......A LOT!!!!!!!!! Hope you and Mother T are really happy together roasting s'mores with the fundies, the nazis, and the jehova's witnesses. Good times (insert sarcasm here).

Charles you simply are misguided due to a lack of intelligence. First, condoms do spread HIV/AIDS. The failur rate of condoms in anal sex insures it with typical sexual activity, or else you're defacto practicing a form of semi abstinence, thus the Universal (Catholic) Church's take is universally 100% correct! Then Let's take Mother Teresa's "suffer" for instance. There's suffering not of your own cause (sickness, war, etc.) and suffering of your own design (sacrifice, selflessness). Mother T was talking of the second, which can even happen as a result of conditions of the fist, the 2nd selfless sacrifice though only that which indeed brings you closer to God. You need to ponder what my saintly Mother was correct about when she said, "A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing!"

'Wrestling with his faith??!! If you ask me; someones 'Karma' needs to run over Obamas 'Dogma'.

I am with you Shawn
