Many people believe Obama is a Muslim.
Funny how Obama picked up his middle name when the campaign ended. But it was racist to use it during the campaign.
Obama in his own autobiography talked about reading the Koran in school. None of my schools ever had us read the Koran.
He became a Christian in Chicago in order to use the Rev Wrights connections. Does that make him a christian...no?
However I don't think Obama believes in any religion, just himself.
With slick marketers Obama is now a product just Nike.
Is Obama a Muslim? In the Muslim world he is still considered one.
The whole middle name use durring the campagin was like a white person calling a black person the N word, or "My Homie" it was used poorly to seperate him from the others.. and to point out his background in the middle east. When he uses it, it is meant as a means to bring together both cultures he has lived in.
As to schools, and the Koran.... Have *you* ever lived in the middle east, or hell.. any where abroad? You do know that other countries do have different main religions yes?
With that other books. The Torah, and Koran, the Bible... they are all pretty standard faire.... One is not better then the other if you ask me. They are all holy books.
When you are schooled over seas that country has a ciriculum.
My having read the Tora did not make me into a Jew... nor did reading the Koran. Hell the mere reading of the Bible does not make one a Christian. Obama's religion is of his chosing.. and if he says he is a Christian then I believe him. Why is it that these wankers think if you are exposed to any other religion then your religon is at question? Is their own personal faith so weak that reading the texts or living in an area that has a different culture/religon is a damnger to them? I mean come on.
I think it is a good thing to extend a hand out to the jewish, and muslim worlds. It is much better then demonizimg them.. and starting shit simply because they think and believe differently.
It is that thinking that got us into this whole war bullshit.
So what if the Muslim world conciders him a Muslim.. that is their custom. You are concidered to be what ever religion your father is. For life. Does not matter if you convert, or never ascribed to those beliefs yourself. It goes simply by your fathers religon.
~ Another thing is.... Muslims are not the evil people the last 8 years of idiotcy has made it out to be.
they are no different in thier hopes and dreams then anyone else.
People need to get themselves educated a bit more... and stop passing judgements on whole groups of people because they are different and thereby scary.
Gwyn,
Who happens to be Hindu if you wanted to know.
Gwyn, I don't think Americans hate people of the muslim religion. There are millions of moderate muslims living in our country in peace and friendship. My biggest accounts in a former endeaver were a Saudi, a Lebanese, and an Iranian....and you are obviously correct in that people the world over have the same hopes and dreams for their families.
The problem is with the radical islamic terrorists who have corrupted the Qu'ran for their own agenda. Most muslim are not terrorists, but most terrorists are muslim...and that is upsetting to people and makes them fearful of someone with a name like Hussein.
