Barack Obama's "faith" is based on uncertainty. He believes it is important, mostly as a means to make one feel good about themselves and wanting to help other people. John Smith, a pastor from Loveland, Colorado, is quoted on Obama's webpage as saying "the number one thing about being a Christian" is "caring for people." So why can't Obama get the endorsement of American evangelicals? Because "caring for people" is a part of what Christianity is all about, but it is equaled to "Love the Lord they God with all thy heart, mind and soul." What they do not understand is that without both working together, the end result bears little lasting fruit. This is the part that bothers the liberal left politicians and the liberal church. Bringing a dialogue about "faith" and "caring" is really convictionless. It can mean so many things and it can mean everything. It is the subject of Jesus that separates the sheep from the goats and the real Christians from the psuedo-Christians. Obama is a pseudo-Christian who offers a "faith" message that is not much different than a good motivational speaker or Amway dealer. It may offer a lot of good feelings but it won't produce what real Christianity should produce: real love.
