“It’s an opportunity for us to reflect on the triumph of the resurrection, and to give thanks for the all-important gift of grace. And for me, and I’m sure for some of you, it’s also a chance to remember the tremendous sacrifice that led up to that day, and all that Christ endured – not just as a Son of God, but as a human being"
If it was just this one infraction it could be overlooked. Notice he said "a son of God" rather than "the son of God". This is important because Jesus was clearly presented in scripture as the only begotten Son of God. Obama goes on in the speech to bring Jesus down to our level - saying that He doubted and agonized as we all do. Many people see this as a superficial pandering to the evangelicals in the country yet this could very well be in lock step with his faith as exhibited all along. Obama is a syncretist.
Barack Obama is a syncretist; one who is able to follow whatever philosophy is present in the room because syncretism is the conflation of all of the world's philosophies into one.
He has claimed to be a Christian. He has sided with the Muslims and actually said on many occasions that he is a Muslim, and he credited Gandhi, a Hindu, with his presidency. He was endorsed by a major Buddhist group and even his insiders are saying he's an atheist. Barack Obama is a syncretist. He is all... and he is none.
Barack Obama is not a Christian. He is a syncretist. What is a syncretist? Syncretism is the combining of different beliefs, often while melding practices of various schools of thought. In this video we showed in great detail the President's conflation of practically all of the world's philosophies into one common expression.
