Obama defends his Christian religion, denies apostasy


So today, Obama defends his religion.

AP: The Democratic presidential candidate told a town hall meeting Sunday in Nelsonvile, Ohio, in the state's rural southeast, that he is a devout Christian who prays to Jesus every night.
......
Obama said misinformation — including long-standing suggestions that he is a Muslim — is being spread by his opponents.
.....


But, based on the following information from Daniel Pipes:

* "Interviews with dozens of former classmates, teachers, neighbors and friends show that Obama was not a regular practicing Muslim when he was in Indonesia" – implying he was an irregularly practicing Muslim.

* "Obama occasionally followed his stepfather to the mosque for Friday prayers, a few neighbors said" – confirming that he did pray in the mosque.

* "Obama's 3rd-grade teacher at the Catholic school, who lived near the family [said that] ‘Rarely, Barry went to the mosque with Lolo'" – confirming that Obama attended mosque services.

All this matters, for if Obama once was a Muslim, he is now what Islamic law calls a murtadd (apostate), an ex-Muslim converted to another religion who must be executed.

Were he elected president of the United States, this status, clearly, would have large potential implications for his relationship with the Muslim world.


Obama has a much bigger issue to address. Does he deny that it exists?

Not all Muslims are "sweetness and light". Not all Muslims accept Christianity. In particular, a "Muslim" practicing Christianity AND leading "The Great Satan"

Obama needs to come to reality with regards to this issue. Brushing it under his "Christianity Rug", will not make it go away.

Pipes was not 100% correct and Obama is a liar.

No, Pipes was not 100% correct. But, there is enough evidence out there, to prove the points, I've included.

In Islam, there is such a thing as "a little bit Muslim". Enough for the Jihadi's to hold it against him.

And whether Obama wants to admit it or not, the facts stand.

He is getting away with lying to his ignorant followers.

Interesting that he used to go by "Barry" but now goes by "Barack." Is he trolling for Muslim votes?

His knickname was Barry in elementary school.

He does have Muslim supporters.
