Obama goes to church

From: Politico

Editor's Note: WAIT! ! ! ! STOP THE PRESSES! ! ! ! Obama goes to church ? ! ? ! ? Bit wait, this is an Episcopal Church and those of us who thought he was Christian instead of Muslim, thought that he was a member of the United Church of Christ. If he is a member of the U.C.C., then why is he receiving communion in an Episcopal Church, unless the Episcopal Church does not have "Closed Communion" like the Catholic Church has.

President Barack Obama, beset by substantial public doubts about his religion and right-wing suspicions that he is Muslim, took a few steps on Sunday to dispel those image problems: He and his family crossed Lafayette Park to St. John’s Episcopal Church, just the third time he has worshipped in public since he became president last year.

The president, first lady Michelle Obama and their daughters joined about 40 other worshippers, according to pool reports, and heard a sermon on a passage from the Gospel of Luke that ends, “You cannot serve God and wealth.” They also took Communion as a family. . . .
