His family is mostly Muslim in Kenya. He lived in a Muslim country (Indonesia) for most of his early childhood. He first attended a Muslim school but had to be removed and sent to a Christian school because he couldn't get along with his classmates. His father in law was Muslim. His father was born Muslim but didn't practice the religion. Nor did his father live with him or his mother, so we can't blame Obama for that. But he did take on his father's name.
Every Muslim in the Middle East seems to have the impression that a Muslim is currently occupying the Oval Office. Imagine the danger in that.
He's not a practicing Muslim. In Islam he would be known as an Apostate. However, he seems to lean towards Islam. He says he loves the call to prayer he heard as a child. His first major speech was broadcast on Al Jazzera. He gave a speech in the first few months of his Presidency in Cairo. He told the world that this is no-longer a Christian nation.
You tell me what all of this means.
No, he is not a Muslim. His history is full of Muslim influence however.
First Read - Obama asked about connection to Islam
"My father was from Kenya," he said, "and a lot of people in his
village were Muslim. He didn't practice Islam. Truth is he wasn't very
religious. He met my mother. My mother was a Christian from Kansas, and
they married and then divorced. I was raised by my mother. So, I've
always been a Christian. The only connection I've had to Islam is that
my grandfather on my father's side came from that country. But I've
never practiced Islam."
This thread is entitled "The Many Lies Of The Left" with the implication here that President Barack Obama is lying about his religious beliefs.
You then go on to make a very large leap of faith by saying:
Every Muslim in the Middle East seems to have the impression that a Muslim is currently occupying the Oval Office. Imagine the danger in that.
Every Muslim? Really? Did I seem to miss that poll that was taken about what Muslims thought in the Middle East about the religion of President Obama?
You also make the assumption that because he kept his father's name that he is a Muslim. Again, no real evidence.
You have no real evidence that he is a Muslim, you have what we would call assumptions. The majority of what you listed in your last paragraph can easily be chalked up to President Obama trying to reach out to Muslims across the globe who in many cases are angry at the United States.
The very last sentence of your post doesn't even make sense.
I think what's going on here is you want President Obama to be a Muslim in order to better demonize him.
I think if Obama was a Muslim he wouldn't be this reckless.
Fact is, because he isn't a Muslim but wants to play one on TV he has become a greater threat to world peace that anyone realizes.
He doesn't actually grasp what it's like to be a Muslim, yet he wants to patronize them.
This is dangerous.
Anyone who's lived in the Middle East can tell you this.
