"You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn't care anything about. That's a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking."
There have been many incidents of people comparing the Junior Senator from Illinois to the Jewish Carpenter from Nazareth. We all remember that Obama was a "community organizer" like Jesus. We have heard that Pontius Pilot was a governor, like Sara Palin. Rush had a different take recently on his show. "I know Jesus Christ. I pray to Jesus Christ all the time," said Limbaugh." I study what Jesus Christ did and said all the time, and let me tell you something, Barack Obama, you are no Jesus Christ." He went on to add, "I can't find any such references to Jesus promoting infanticide nor do I find any references to Jesus Christ suggesting sex education be taught to 4- and 5-year-olds, but I'm still looking in the New Testament and I'll let you all know if I come up with anything."
Imagine any pundit or religious leader on the right comparing McCain or Palin to the Deity. Imagine the outrage that would flow from that. Farrakhan is another violent, unrepentant terrorist in the fold of Obama.
Finally, let's take Obama in his own words. Speaking at Dartmouth, he told a gathering of students before the New Hampshire primary in January this : "a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come down upon you, you will experience an epiphany, and you will suddenly realize that you must go to the polls and vote" for Obama.
If Obama is the Messiah, I just turned atheist.
