Guess he's shopping around to find an America-hating church like the one back home in Chicago. Come on, you know he doesn't want to go to church, but thinks its good for his image. Hopefully Brother Sackdance can weigh in here. Obama Still Undecided on Church (June 29) -- The White House denied a report Monday that President Obama had chosen a church for his family to attend. TIME.com said the president, in what it called "an unexpected move," decided to make the nondenominational Evergreen Chapelchapel at Camp David his primary place of worship. The article cited no sources. The White House quickly issued a statement shooting down the report. "The President and First Family continue to look for a church home," said Deputy White House Press Secretary Jennifer Psaki. "They have enjoyed worshipping at Camp David and several other congregations over the months, and will choose a church at the time that is best for their family." Reporter Amy Sullivan said she stood by her story. "The plan for the foreseeable future is for the First Family to attend services at the nondenominational Evergreen Chapel when they're at Camp David," she wrote on TIME.COM. Obama's predecessor often worshiped at the presidential retreat's Evergreen Chapel. President Bush's family attended Christmas services there every year of his administration, according to TIME. The Obamas celebrated Easter this year at St. John's Episcopal Church, nicknamed the "Church of the Presidents," near the White House. The Sunday before his inauguration, he attended Washington's 19th Street Baptist Church. Crowds lined up hours before the service and some longtime church members couldn't get in. The "circus" atmosphere of that event drove the president to seek a more private place to worship, according to TIME. http://news.aol.com/article/white-house-denies-obama-has-picked-a/548316?icid=main|htmlws-main|dl1|link5|http%3A%2F%2Fnews.aol.com%2Farticle%2Fwhite-house-denies-obama-has-picked-a%2F548316 |

Good. I hope he never goes, because attending church is a sign of being a weak minded fool who believes in nonsensical, idiotic fairy tales. Church is for old people and closet homosexuals. Or a-holes like this: |

Your schtick is getting old, Brother Plumber. I can see through your sarcasm, but others do not. Think about it.

Don't see the video at work- have to check it out when I get home. Don't want him near an America-hating preacher, either. Brother Plumber, you paint all religious people with the same broad brush. We are not all the boogeyman. Edited by Ernie, Jun 30 2009, 09:37 AM.

And "y'all" paint people who don't attend church as the bogeyman. In fact, your ridiculous Holy Book says that people who don't attend church will bring on the end of the world and will burn in hell for an eternity. Besides, I never said that church folk are the bogeyman. Just dumb. |

Just go down to one of the storefront Nation of Islam mosques loyal to his former constituent, Louis Farakhan, and start facing Mecca 5X a day and get it over with already. |

You're letting far right evangicals taint your view on all religious and spiritual people. The vocal right wing evangicals are not representative of all religious people. Is Kleck or Doggin dumb as I believe from their posts they are religious? |

Absolutely. But any other religious people; Doggin, Jcn, CanadaSteve, Kleck; know how I actually feel about spirituality. I'm just an a** who takes an extreme position to prove a point. That's all... |

What the? I am a non-practicing Jew. The problem is that right-wing evagelicals claim to speak for all religious people. |
