Why the "birthers"argument doesn't matter

The so-called "birthers" make a big fuss about Obama's birth place or birth certificate, claiming his citizenship is questionable and, therefore, his legitimacy as the President. The problem is, wherever he was born doesn't matter now because now he is the President.
 Just to give you another example of the "birthing" issue, consider this: the Apostles' Creed states that Jesus was conceived of the Holy Ghost, born of a virgin, was the sole son of God, was crucified and resurrected, and that acceptance of him as your personal Savior gets you eternal life after death. Aha, but did Jesus have a birth certificate? Is there proof that he was born of a virgin? Proof that he rose from the dead? Or does it matter? It doesn't, because if you believe Jesus is your personal Savior, that's it. Done. Birth certificate or none, he is your Savior.
 Of course, Obama is not your Savior, all political posturing to the contrary. Obama is your President, at least for now, and unless you question or doubt any part of the Apostle's Creed, Jesus can remain your Savior. That's called faith. If you doubt... there's the rub.
