Is Barack Hussein Obama a Muslim?

General General Discussion
1

Obama’s faith recently was brought up as a result of two events involving Republican Primary candidates. Donald Trump recently refused to refute a supporter’s claim that Barack Hussein Obama (BHO) is a Muslim, and Dr. Ben Carson stated, “I would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation. I absolutely would not agree with that.” The MSM immediately, and predictably, came to the POTUS’s defense.

Although BHO claims to be a Christian, and he has defended this view in the past, he certainly has spearheaded much policy-making that is contradictory to the faith and values of Christians, yet he has gone out of his way to appease Muslims, both domestically and abroad.

Is it fair to suggest that BHO may in fact be a Muslim, as he “erroneously” stated in an interview (see video below), or at the very least, sympathizes with Islam practitioners? This is a serious question, so please answer seriously.

Also, I recently came across an article suggesting that the POTUS is a Muslim, from which I obtained the following quotes:

How do we know President Obama is a Christian? Because he told us so, that’s how, and he never lies.

Besides, there’s no way he’d say something to trick millions of people into a false sense of security, including about the faith he allegedly shares with them, while he attacks the fundamental building blocks of America, including Christian law, teachings and values.

Yes indeed, Barack Hussein Obama is all Christian, because he says so. Only if you were a “radical” would you question what appears to be a predominant tendency to engage in ceaseless fraud and deception, not purely Christian values, while furthering a vision of the United States in which the term “freedom to worship” has been urged to replace “freedom of religion.” Similarly, only a nut would question the president’s Christian chops by pointing to his inclination to associate with Marxists in high school, college and law school. It’s probably just a coincidence that societies built on Marxism and Communism are atheistic, and at some point before assuming full power must crush organized religion in order to ensure that the all-powerful government has a dearth of competitors for the hopes or needs of its servants.

Likewise, it’s probably simple bad timing that we have witnessed for almost seven years the president’s increasing tendency, and that of his party, to bring the power of government to bear on those who foolishly believe that their right to freely practice their religion extends to public life, including within any organization affiliated with government. Thus, we cannot hold the president accountable for the overtly anti-Christian policies which have been implemented among the branches of the military, for instance, over whom the president is commander in chief.

I’ve noticed that Christians, who are being massacred for their faith in Syria and surrounding lands are pleading for refugee status in the United States, while Muslims who merely want to come in may do so in the tens of thousands, but that’s probably not fair to the president. He probably doesn’t know about all those fellow Christians being murdered, mutilated, and dismembered, because he skips so many daily security briefings.

Who gives a shit? I wouldn’t care if he prayed to rocks and sticks. Policy is what matters.

Posts like this make gun forums look stupid.

In reading his books and analyzing his behavior, I’d say that he finds himself simply “above religion” and has no time for it. I am not saying he is a disbeliver; I am simply saying he is apathetic at best.

That said, he was raised muslim while Barry Soetero. Went to Islamic schools. I think that he does not at this point consider himself muslim, but rather is a strong sympathizer.

As far as being Christian? No. He went to the Rev Wright church, which is not very much Christian, but a black liberation theology “church.” Obama states in his book that Alinsky said that an effective place to “organize” and gain support is at local churches. Since our community organizer in chief needed to build a coalition and gain numbers, he joined the Rev. Wright. Frankly, I fully believe he was there to elevate his own personal gain and agenda more than he was ever there to “worship.” We do not see Obama even make more than basic token appearances to church now.

I think he worships himself more than anything.

I can’t tell you what is in his heart, but by his actions; I would have to agree with this.
There is a way to address these questions when asked, I’m rather surprised that guy’s as smart as Ben Carson can’t articulate their opinion without walking through the progressive and media minefield and stepping in some shit.

Ugh…this again?

I doubt he is an actual Muslim, as I also doubt he believes in God at all. He is most likely agnostic.

He most likely passed himself off as a Christian during the election cycles mostly for appearances sake. I seriously doubt he has many deep seated Christian beliefs at all.

He has shown us many times that he favors Muslims and is more than willing to give them a pass on their extremist views. That can be easily proven.

He has extreme sympathies for them and antipathy towards traditional America Christians…no doubt about it.

I’ve known Muslims like him. They drink, smoke, fool around, don’t go to religious service, but ya say ONE thing or do one thing they don’t like they start blabbing like they are being persecuted as an entire group and blah blah blah

I don’t care what other believe in. Some of the most moral, self restrained people I’ve known were hardened atheists and I’ve been effed over moneywise and personally by guys with fish logos on their signs or (mis)quote the Bible so…

A BETTER question is, do you think Obama sympathizes with radicals and doesn’t know how to be an impartial and decent president then yes, that I agree with.

I’m firmly in the separation of church and state camp

He bows at the altar of Karl Marx and would likely find the Beatrice Webb House as more important religious site than Mecca these days. Perhaps the feudal aspects, subjugation, cronyism, and control of political Islam are an appealing means to an end.

I’d say socialist with communist tendencies would almost* describe him more accurately than anything. He’ll exploit Islam or anything else at his disposal to further his goals.

*Narcissist describes him better than anything.

It’s basically a requirement to be a follower of Jesus to become President.

11

Agreed. He says he’s not a Muslim. There’s no reason to be a closet Muslim and anyone who’s actually religious wouldn’t pretend to be another religion. I don’t think he’s Christian either but knew that one can’t get elected in the US without claiming to be religious. That’s true of most politicians I’d wager. What he is however is a Muslim sympathizer and likely much sympathetic to Muslims than prior POTUS. Depending on your perspective, that’s a good thing or bad. Personally, I feel it can be either depending on the approach, but he’s flubbed up pretty much all of it at this point making virtually no one happy on that score.

12

I think the better question is why does he not talk more about the influence of Islam on his youth. His dad was a muslim, correct? His schooling was Islamic- why is he denying his muslim background?

I can’t tell what religion people are, but I can tell what they are trying to deny something.

I do think that there is a 50:50 that he ‘converts’, ‘reverts’ or ‘discovers his roots’ at some point after he retires.

13

I think it is more likely that Obama is a atheist although he does have strong Muslim sympathies. I do believe Obama is a Marxist who harbors a deep seated hatred towards traditional America and traditional American values and fundamentally he is a professional provocateur and tries to drive wedges between people.

14

Would you feel the same way about a member of the Christian Identity church? Normally I wouldn’t care, except secular Islam seems like a cultural impossibility and the values are inconsistent with the US Constitution and Islam takes a higher priority. This is what Carson was trying to say.

To clarify, I couldn’t care less if we had a jewish President. But I sure wouldn’t want a hacidic jewish President for the same reason.

We derive upper bounds for the density of angels dancing on the point of a pin. It is dependent on the assumed mass of the angels, with a maximum number of 8.676610exp49 angels at the critical angel mass (3.880710exp-34 kg).

We have derived quantum gravity bounds on the number of angels that can dance on the tip of a needle as a function of the mass of the angels. The maximal number of angels – 8.676610exp49 – is achieved near the critical mass mcrit>1/kD �3.880710-34 kg, corresponding to the transition from the information-limited to the mass-limited regime. It is interesting to note that this is of the same order of magnitude as the Schewe bound.

Angel physics has until now mainly employed theological methods, but as this paper shows, modern information physics, quantum gravity and relativity theory provide powerful tools for exploring the dynamics and statics of angels.

These bounds are only upper bounds, and do not take into account the effects of a finite number of available angels, degeneracy pressures if angels obey the Pauli exclusion principle as suggested by Aquinas, or the theo-psychology of the angels themselves. The exact dance dynamics also clearly play a major role. A full relativistic treatment of the dance appears as a promising avenue for further tightening of the bounds.

The whole country is in the middle of a burn cycle right now.

It’s “White features are beautiful” and “Obama is a secret undercover Islamic Protestant Muslim” in some places and it’s “Cop Hate” somewhere else and “1% Rich Hate” in another place… or maybe the same.

The right thing to do as an American is to make an on-the-spot correction every single time bigotry or ignorance raises it’s head… but it damn sure can wear you out.

The 24 hour news cycle has driven people to the extremes, and fringe radicals communicating via the internet have convinced themselves that because they found someone else with the same backward worldview, that that worldview somehow is worthwhile, possesses merit, or should be heard.

It is EXACTLY the same for all fringe radical elements operating in the world today.
