Isn't any one else worried that our Oval Office Occupier is going to take the position in the UN Security Council?
WOW...that should shake us all up....just think of the damage he can do to Israel and the US when he is there...HE will feel as though he is leader of the world.....AND...taking such a position is against our constitition Section 9...
How can he continue to just do as he pleases???? What's next for this man?

It seems to me, this call to the Islamic community for a day of prayer, should be a call to Christians everywhere to join together with their prayer groups, their churchs, their Christian friends and have a day of prayer on this same day, Sept 25. They want to rally 50,000 people, let us rally 10,000,000 Christians in prayer - in our homes, our cars, our desks, our lunch time, at the gym, soccer practise, school, where ever we are on Sept 25th, let every Christian pray as God leads them. Let us rise as a Elijah at Mt. Carmel, and pray to the Living God in the face of His enemies.

Islam is taking over the world and that is their strategy. Islam is not "tolerant" and it takes advantage of societies (like the US) that are. Can Islam evolve comfortable to the values of the west? No, Islam is adamantly against the values of the west. One of the hopes of the west to retain its values against Islam is for the women to rebel against Islam and prefer the respect and dignity the west gives them vs the harsh treatment and male-dominated society Islamic culture offers (involuntarily). Also, Islam will hopefully be watered down by the west in the process of moving away from its center in the middle east. I am not a fan of Islam, though I love and appreciate all people. Islam is all about submission whereas America and the west are all about FREEDOM. Therefore, they are mutually exclusive and this will remain the case until an extremely liberal modern form of Islam emerges which rejects the whole "submission" thing and the whole "hate the west" thing.

our country is founded on certain principals, and Obama has so far displayed none of them and has shunned everything that has made America great at any chance he gets.

its funny how he gave a speech to the UN today recognizing the state of Palestine and telling everyone that Isreal needs to relax, while a crowd full of thugs and dictators applause and cheer for him, but none of the media outlets seem to care that the only ones clapping are those we are at war with. this guy represents everything that America is not

Unfortunately, this is a result of the people of our nation abandoning our Christian Faith. This abandonment creates a huge moral vacuum in our society. Whenever there is a vacuum, it is naturally filled with....well... you can see here where our nation is going.

I encourage you to (whatever your Christian faith is) hold on to it wholeheartedly. support it with your attendance, help it grow, and to support it financially. The war we are facing here is not of flesh & blood. This is a spiritual battle that must be fought with fervent prayer for our nation.

God Bless the USA

taken out of context these six words can be made to sound like a defamatory remark. but that's NOT what he said. if you listen to the ENTIRE clip you will hear the correct message he's trying to get across. WE ARE A NATION OF INDIVIDUALS! we are NOT to be categorized by our religions, which are MANY!!
get a life people..............

Like Christianity, it is actually waning. most of the people I know from the middle east are atheist or agnostic. I just got back from Israel, and those who are non ultra-religious are non-religious, my Israeli co-worker says that her husband, who is the son of a rabbi, was one of her only peers who went to synagogue. The expansion is not in the camp of any religion, it is in the ma*s professing freedom from religion. The US will become post-religious very quickly in the coming decades, as will parts and then all of the so-called Islamic world. Here the greatest aid to this conversion are people like the author of this post. I read what these people say and man am I glad I left.

you are an idiot! relax dude.

Please follow the link below and read the FACTS!

"NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim May 7, 2009, as a National Day of Prayer. I call upon Americans to pray in thanksgiving for our freedoms and blessings and to ask for God's continued guidance, grace, and protection for this land that we love."

That that document still remains as it day on the day he signed this proclamation.

as a Jew I honestly don't mind that Obama did this, this article offends me more than anything, I am reading it and he just a*sumes I am christian, well guess what I am not and our country in non-secular so obama is right when he says we are not a christain country

We may be a diverse country of religions but the fact is the short history of this nation, it's laws, constitution, government, etc. are established off Christianity as a foundation. The frustration is that other religions want to deny that history and change what made America such a great nation in the first place. If you were to immigrate to another country such as one in Asia, you could not deny their history with eastern philosophy and try to change and make their laws comply with your immigrated religions.

As a Christian American the frustration is that immigrants that have come here to make the melting pot for decades also want to change it to how they want it. If America was such the great place to come, why not accept the short Christian history and respect it as immigrants to "this" country? Even if you are an American citizen born and raised here.

The beauty of America is that there is freedom of religion and freedom to believe in God or not. The laws do not deny that freedom but have created it. Example: It is so hard for non-Christians to accept the word "Christmas" WHY? That is what it is and what started the season. Yes Hanakah (sp) starts first. As a teacher I always had a Manorrah(sp?) in the cla*sroom allow with my Christmas tree. When radicals demand the tree to be called a "holiday" tree it is disrespecting Christians rights and basic foundations to this nation. Would you want to be told your Manorrah (sp?) had to be called a "holiday" one? And Kwanza? Wow! A newly derived holiday with a history going back to only @ the 60's if not 70's. When I lived in Africa in the 90's the Africans around me did not even celebrate it! So why the push and demand to not respect the Christian foundation? That is offensive. Why can't we get along and respect each other's right's to celebrate their holidays even?

Allah IS God, not Lucifer / Baal, etc. Being so disrespectful to another religion is anything but "Christian." Even within Christianity there are many differences - Christian, just like Islam, just like Judaism, Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Paganism, and/or all the Primal religious beliefs (if those of you who support this Mr. Gano even have a clue as to what a Primal religion is - somehow, I doubt it.) cannot be defined just by their group title. There is a huge difference between a Roman Catholic and Mormon, a Congregationalist and Episcopalian, Southern Baptist and Baptist, etc. One will even find differences within each subcategory of religion depending on the minister, the congregation, the community, and the church members.
WE ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN NATION! Our founding fathers made there be a separation of church and state for that reason they did not want there to one religion governing the USA. We do not have a state church, never have, and never will.
When it comes to "fastest growing" religion the majority of statisticians and social scientists will tell you the majority of the numbers you hear are biased and are put out there from specific religions. The best way to measure religious growth is to examine subcultures within each country. For example, if you look at prison populations in England, Buddhism is the fastest growing religion. Islam (both Sunni and Shia) are the fastest growing religions in Europe, US, Canada, and Russia, followed by Hinduism. This is not because people are converting to Islam though, this is because of immigration and birth rates among those belonging to Islam and Hinduism. Shock of shockers for all of you die-hard Christians out there, Christianity is the fastest growing religion among the least educated in the world, and in countries like the US, Canada, and England, there has been a move away from Christianity among those "cla*sified" as Christian. Why? They were born to Christian parents and upon reaching adulthood, when they are no longer oppressed by their parents, once allowed to make up their own mind, they do not cla*sify themselves as Christian. While "no religious affiliation" is the fastest growing group in US and Canada, Wicca is very popular among young adults. The most interesting finding, at least to me, is the fear many young adults have when it comes to telling their parents they are no longer Christian and they "Play Christian" when home from college, visiting there relatives, etc. but feel free to express themselves in their own social setting (among friends). Many will even "Play Christian" to co-workers, neighbors, or a*sociates, for fear of reprisal if they do not but when it comes right down to it they do not believe in Christ as the son of God, the immaculate conception, virgin birth, etc.
I am sure most of you who put down Islam know little to nothing about the religion as a whole. I once was naive, myself. Before you start commenting and giving out information on a subject you should educate yourselves. If you do not, all you are doing is spreading misinformation like Ray Gano who LIED in this article when he stated that President Obama canceled the National Day of Prayer.
And, for you, Mrs. frustrated with immigrants coming to this country, and make it how they want it . . . . . .Unless you are a 100% Native American you come from immigrants who came here and made it how they wanted it. The USA is a dynamic nation and that means change. If you do not like it - LEAVE. GO BACK TO WHEREVER YOUR ANCESTORS CAME FROM! I know some of my ancestors came here in the 1600s and some were here long before that. Those that were here were called "savages," given blankets coated with small pox, and eventually forced to live on the worst possible land in a fenced in area when they had been roaming, hunting, and living here long before most of the world even knew this continent existed. The Christian's came here and forced there way of life on my people so do not give me that crap about immigrants coming here today and trying to change this country. It was changed by the Christian immigrants and it will be changed again. Stagnation is a bad thing.
