#1 Did he mention that that single parent was white? Or that the Grand parent that actually raised him was also white? No? Didin't think so.

Damned Armenians.

#6 Wright is one of the many millstones dragging Obama down.

#7 "An ordinary black boy raised in a single-parent home . . . walked into my office 20 years ago to talk about his dream for a community that concentrated on things that we could achieve in common."

You know that brings up a serious question,
Did Obama ever realise his "Dream"?
If not, in 20 years what the hell does he think he'll accomplish in 4?

This phrase needs to be trumpeted on the Repub Media, LOUDLY, it proves he's just a failure with empty promises.

#8 Wright isn't the cause, he's the sympton. Obama wouldn't attend the man's church for TWENTY YEARS unless he fully understood and agreed with everything he's saying. The sooner the rest of America can realize this, the better.

#9 he referred to Obama as a "boy" who later developed into an extraordinary person, through God's work and, presumably, Wright's guidance.
According to Wright, OHB was a boy when he first arrived because he was only half black.Through the application of BLT under Wright's guidance, he has exorcised his white demons from his soul and has become a born again black man.
This , according to Cone (Wright's mebtor)will give him a new black perspective.
Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community ... Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.

#10 A phrase I heard , Just hit home.

"The Christianity of white people and black people is entirely different".

Reading this makes me Question, just how different can you be and still be called A "Christian"?

#11 There are plenty of blacks who see Christianity and Christ as colour blind -- quite a number of whom post here at Rantburg, to our benefit. This Black Liberation Theology crap belongs to a vocal and idiotic minority.

Candidate Obama, however, had bought into the message long before he found his mentor, the Reverend Dr. Jeremiah Wright, a theme he expands on in both his autobiographies.
