False Prophet

It kinda tickles me when I read stuff like this.

Is Obama an enlightened being?
Spiritual wise ones say: This sure ain't no ordinary politician. You buying it?

Right off the bat, Obama is more than human, he's a "being". This is gonna get interesting.

Warning: If you are a rigid pragmatist/literalist, itchingly evangelical, a scowler, a doubter, a burned-out former '60s radical with no hope left, or are otherwise unable or unwilling to parse alternative New Age speak, click away right now, because you ain't gonna like this one little bit.

Just covered about everyone who would take exception, didn't he? Lucky for me I don't play well with others. Or listen to them much.

Many spiritually advanced people I know (not coweringly religious, mind you, but deeply spiritual) identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being who has the ability to lead us not merely to new foreign policies or health care plans or whatnot, but who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet, of relating and connecting and engaging with this bizarre earthly experiment. These kinds of people actually help us evolve. They are philosophers and peacemakers of a very high order, and they speak not just to reason or emotion, but to the soul.

Ah, so instead of adopting one of the major religious saviors already available, invent your own, call him a "Lightworker" and worship away. Just don't be "coweringly religious" like those other religious people, be strident in your convictions. Yeah, that's the ticket. And, make sure you attack anyone who questions your "Lightworker". Can't have heresy going on, can we?

Sebastian and Firehand have more.

Then again, if it keeps you out of the clock tower, go for it.
