The nut doesn't fall far from the tree.

Or more biblically put, you will know them by the fruit they bear.

Christians are, or should be, known by the way they present themselves and for the principles for which they stand. A person who upholds abortion and gay marriage, bows to kings of foreign lands and other religions, and refuses to lead by example in observing a day of prayer would certainly appear to be bearing fruit other than that of Christianity. While it is not for us to judge Obama's heart, it is prudent for us to look at his life and see if he is living out his Christian faith and Obama's actions certainly leave room for question in my opinion.
