Obama Responds To Controversy Over What He Said About Muslims And Christians President Obama once again shocked the nation when he pointed to the Crusades and the Inquisition as examples of why Christians shouldnt judge Islam. Of course, he chose to give this controversial speech at the National Prayer Breakfast. And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ, Obama told the audience. In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ. In fact, when White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz was questioned by the press, he responded that Obama believes that we need to be honest with ourselves and look inward, and hold ourselves accountable. Schultz claims that the comments stem from American values of equality, tolerance, fairness, civil rights, human rights, treating every human being with respect and decencyno matter their gender, their race, their faith, their sexual identity. The presidents comments this morning at the prayer breakfast are the most offensive Ive ever heard a president make in my lifetime, claimed Former Virginia Governor Jim Gilmore. His opinion is one that was echoed by many Christians. He has offended every believing Christian in the United States. This goes further to the point that Mr. Obama does not believe in America or the values we all share. What do you think of Obamas comments? Are they anti-Christian and anti-American?
