At best he is akin to an American atheist who, despite not explicitly adhering to Christian principles, nonetheless holds a variety of paraphrased Christian axioms & values, tacitly celebrates “Christian” holidays, and appreciates Christian-inspired contributions to society (religious artwork, Gregorian chants, great cathedrals, church charities, etc).
He may not be an active devotee, but holds to & protects & promotes the basic axioms & values.

I see your point. However, to some of us, his statements about religion cause us to question things.
For example, he said he was attracted to Christianity due to tenets of Christianity, such as how we are our brother’s keeper and our sister’s keeper.
This is not a tenet of Christian faith. For Obama to cite a completely mangled and misunderstood interpretation of a Bible story as his inspiration for Christianity, just shows how little he understands about the Bible and Christianity.
