So, according to the Christian Science Monitor, the report by Time magazine was a mistake.
Uh oh....you know that this means?
Hide the women folk!!! Protect the children! Save the helpless guns! Obama is a secret piece of CLOTH! And not even a good Christian piece of cloth!!!(I said paper at first. Couldn't remember. I had two mojitos with lunch. Yum. Totally worth the stoning!)

Contrary to published reports, President Obama and the First Family have not decided to make Evergreen Chapel at Camp David their primary place of worship in the Washington area.
"The President and First Family continue to look for a church home. They have enjoyed worshipping at Camp David and several other congregations over the months, and will choose a church at the time that is best for their family," Deputy White House Press Secretary Jennifer Psaki said in a statement.
On another note, am I the only person who doesn't actually care WHERE the Obamas worship? No really. I don't. They could choose to listen to Ted Haggard high on meth preaching about the joys of being saved from the happiness of being openly gay by watching movies of Rush Limbaugh in the nude, but still...not caring.
If we want to not be judged based on our religious preference, then we need to be able to not judge others. Period. So long as it doesn't affect his policy and how he does his job, I could care less.
I know, I know, influence, yada, yada, yada.
But tell me this; Do you honestly think the Obamas are dumb enough to listen to a preacher every week and think they must agree with that minister 100% of the time? Really? Do you? Heck I spent my childhood attending church regularly, still go sometimes for the potluck, and am about as agnostic as one can get.
So can we do as my seven year old says and just, "Chillax?"
Kudos to Ambroseburnside for the awesome title.
EDITED: Let this be a warning to you fair folks. If you go have a couple of drinks with friends for lunch and then post a diary at Kos = INSTANT REC LIST WIN.)
