I thought it was pretty obvious he is an atheist. He couldn't throw his "spiritual leader" Wright under the bus fast enough when it looked like it might jeopardize his White House run. I seem to remember a quote as well where he mentioned something about learning "humanist" values from his grandmother, although don't quote me on that. And of course "humanism" translates to "We believe in nussing, Lebowski."

His Kenyan father was a Muslim. His Indonesian stepfather was a Muslim. At the Obama's private school in Indonesia there is paperwork indicating Obama was a Muslim when he went there. According to Islam, if the father is a Muslim the son is a Muslim.

Plenty of evidence to indicate that he was a Muslim. Now, who knows?

Are you sure you're Ron Paul supporters? Not Obama defenders? Liberal Democrats?

Except for one of you, who recognizes that there are really good, factual reasons
for people to call Obama a Muslim, none of you seem to have the slightest idea about the factual basis for calling Obama a Muslim.

It's clear that what Obama is is a Muslim Apostate This was actually openly discussed by the media in 2008.

***************

Here's a link to a Christian Science Monitor article
http://www.csmonitor.com/Commentary/Opinion/2008/0519/p09s02-coop.html

The fact that Senator Obama – the son of a Muslim father – insists he was never a Muslim before becoming Christian is irrelevant to bin Laden. In bin Laden's eyes, Obama is a murtad fitri, the worst type of apostate, because he was blessed by Allah to be born into the true faith of Islam.

There are two types of apostates according to sharia (Islamic law) and the Hadith (sayings of the prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him).

The first type is murtad milli, one who converted to Islam and later renounced the faith. The second, and most egregious, type is murtad fitri. It refers to a person born of a Muslim father who renounces his birthright. Two recent examples of the latter are Magdi Allam (a male Egyptian who converted to Catholicism in Italy) and Ayaan Hirsi Ali (Somali-born woman who's now an atheist). Both now face death threats.

According to Islamic jurisprudence, children of a Muslim father – even an apparently nonpracticing one, such as Obama's father, and irrespective of the mother's faith – are automatically Muslims. Most Muslims around the world agree: A child of a Muslim father is a Muslim. Period.

***********

Here's a NY Times article http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/12/opinion/12luttwak.html

As the son of the Muslim father, Senator Obama was born a Muslim under Muslim law as it is universally understood. It makes no difference that, as Senator Obama has written, his father said he renounced his religion. Likewise, under Muslim law based on the Koran his mother’s Christian background is irrelevant.

Of course, as most Americans understand it, Senator Obama is not a Muslim. He chose to become a Christian, and indeed has written convincingly to explain how he arrived at his choice and how important his Christian faith is to him.

His conversion, however, was a crime in Muslim eyes; it is “irtidad” or “ridda,” usually translated from the Arabic as “apostasy,” but with connotations of rebellion and treason. Indeed, it is the worst of all crimes that a Muslim can commit, worse than murder (which the victim’s family may choose to forgive).


***********
Again, one trait I've noticed about Leftist Democrats is that they call someone else stupid while at the same exact time revealing that they know nothing about the subject matter.

So, laugh it up. You're stupid. Get informed. Ron Paul does not benefit from the perception among Republicans that his supporters are actually Leftist Democrats in disguise.

Its true, what I said. Maybe its not applicable to you or your fellows, but there are certainly people dull enough out there that it can apply to. Even if there are legitimate reasons for thinking he is a muslim (I don't really care), plenty of people out there would call him one even if they were completely ignorant of these reasons. Its really only sufficient for them to hear some neocon talking head amuse the idea of him being a Muslim, that plus they notice his middle name.


Me personally, I think he is an Athiest, I think he converted to Christianity just for political reasons...thats my opinion.



Me personally I don't know what he believes, but it probably isn't any religion that he would publicly claim to believe in. Even if he were Islamic in his youth, even if he were Christian in his early adulthood, none of that means much about who he is as a person today. Saying he believes in a certain religion at present does not tell you much about him even. Thats just being real, 1) people change, 2) politicians create whatever image out of themselves that they must and 3) people interpret their religion to fit their worldview (the religion does not make their worldview, politics, personal ethics, etc).

He most certainly does feign religious conviction, all politicians do, they have to pander to stupid religious people. George Bush might believe in a God, but I'm still certain he hammed up all the religious conviction on the campaign trail, and his religious beliefs certainly do not make him any less of horrible person and president.

The war in Iraq is pro-Muslim, and anti-Christian. The one in Afghanistan could probably be called pro-Muslim as well, although less anti-Christian, since Afghanistan was already about as anti-Christian as any place could be before the war.

I don't really see what the debate is about. Whatever Obama truly believes is inscrutable to the rest of us. It's not like you can just take his word for it when he says he's a Christian. But you can't prove he's not with a mind reading machine either. So it seems like kind of a moot issue.

These are debatable points.

On one hand we know for a fact that under Islamic law, Obama is considered a Muslim Apostate.

My point was and is that people here didn't seem to know, at all, that Obama's father was a Muslim, and that makes Obama a Muslim under Islamic Law.

People can have a debate about what that means. I don't really want to participate in that debate.

I'll repeat what you quoted of mine -

"Plenty of evidence to indicate that he was a Muslim. Now, who knows?"

That's exactly true. Yes, he was a Muslim. Now, who knows? You can have the debate about whether or not Obama is still a Muslim. But we know that he was

Not all Muslim nations are equal (just the 2 nations we're at war with, for starters), so the possibility of him being a Muslim is nearly irrelevant.

As for him buying the Presidency, I don't suppose anybody should get it for free (if you do, you're a damn freeloader or thief) .

My point was and is that people here didn't seem to know, at all, that Obama's father was a Muslim, and that makes Obama a Muslim under Islamic Law.

The US isn't governed by Islamic law.

Anyway it doesn't matter. There will always be about 20% of people who say Obama is a Muslim. As there are 20% who say Obama was not born in the US.

My guess is about 20% would say Obama is the anti-Christ. It is what it is and there's no debating it. Evidence is irrelevant.

It's true. According to Jewish custom - if the mother is Jewish so is the child.
That doesn't mean he can't change that later in life.

Yes but his mother is not a Jew.

The Muslim conspiracies are bad enough. But RPF has more Jewish conspiracies than any place I've ever been. That's why I laughed at someone saying his mother is a Jew - too predictable.

Oh, I read that she was. But I wouldn't put this up there with any of the heavyweight conspiracies. Even the Huffington Post wrote a very strange article concerning this -

Soo..........Obama has hid his muslim faith his entire adult life so he can blow up some Sunni's and Shiites?

I have no idea if he hid his Muslim faith as an adult.

Islamic law isn't the law of islamic countries. Religion isn't a government thing. It works separately of that.

I should mention that Obama is a Muslim apostate, not a still practicing Muslim.

Some people might not understand the finer points of the difference between the 2. I don't have a great knowledge of these things, but it is clear that Obama is a Muslim apostate.

It is also clear that Obama was a Muslim when he was in Indonesia. Thats what it says on his school forms.

There is a tremendous amount of mystery surrounding Obama, and his exact religious status is just one of those mysterious things.

The article you're quoting is basically saying that Jews should be proud because Obama is a black President. Kind of like people claimed that Clinton was "the first black President". But no one is claiming that his mother is Jewish.

It's not a "heavyweight conspiracy" because I'm pretty sure a couple people here made it up a few hours ago.

Depends on the country.

I give you Moral Relativism.

"Christian" nations don't have equal clout either, therefore misrepresentation is irrelevant?




As for him buying the Presidency, I don't suppose anybody should get it for free (if you do, you're a damn freeloader or thief) .

Because I think High Office should not be contingent on who can fling the most money at it, I am a Freeloader or Thief? You are all KINDSA mixed up.

Pray tell, have you decided on a PRICE for the presidency? Obama's campaign-o-rama cost in the vicinity of HALF A BILLION zero-value-added dollars. Does that sound about right, or shall we shoot for an even billion in the next go-round?

It's been floating around for a long time all you have to do is google it. Why do trivial things like this bother you so much?

Yeah if you specifically search for it. But why would you? Google "Obama is a Lizard" and there are just as many results.

Who said it bothered me? My entire response was "LOL". That's all I said. I thought it was funny.

Then you started defending it.
