America’s Most Biblically-Hostile U. S. Administration
David Barton of
Wallbuilders.com << wallbuilders.com http:>; has come
out with a list explaining why this Administration is the most
biblically hostile of all time. While most of these stories have been
seen before, seeing them all laid out in one list is pretty astonishing.
There is never a good rime to turn away from GOD.
Certainly not at
this time.

revoke conscience protection for health workers who refuse to participate
in medical activities that go against their beliefs, and fully implements

re-erected as ordered by the Court.
i. February 2011 – Although he filled posts in
the State Department, for more than two years Obama did not fill the post
of religious freedom ambassador, an official that works against religious
persecution across the world; he filled it only after heavy pressure from
the public and from Congress.
j. April 2011 – For the
first time in American history, Obama urges passage of a

at Ground Zero, while at the same time he was silent about a Christian
church being denied permission to rebuild at that location.
f. 2010 – While every White House traditionally
issues hundreds of official proclamations and statements on numerous

g. October 2011 – Obama’s Muslim advisers block
Middle Eastern Christians’ access to the White House.
h. February 2012 – The Obama administration makes
effulgent apologies for Korans being burned by the U. S. military, but when

was the right thing to do.
Many of these
actions are literally unprecedented – this is the first time they have
happened in four centuries of American history. The hostility of
President Obama toward Biblical faith and values is without equal from
any previous American president.
