What response was that?
Theology matters.
If he is, then he lied. You know why Nixon is reviled? Because he lied about Watergate.
If Obama couldn’t be honest with us about his religion, what else would he have no problem lying about?
There is no comeback. Leftists have the moral high ground. You’re just racist.
Why the deception?
The answer is that he wants to bankrupt us so Sha’ria Law will be easier to implement, as well as force us into a more suicidal immigration policy that brings in dependents, not assets.
He wants global Marxism.
If he was born Muslim (he was) and turned to another religion, it could cause problems.

The punishment prescribed by the shari`ah for apostasy is death.
Even the terms used by the shari`ah for apostates give the idea of treason to this whole phenomenon. “Murtad” means apostate. Murtad can be of two types: fitri and milli.
(1) “Murtad Fitri” means a person who is born of a Muslim parent and then he rejects Islam. “Fitrah” means creation. The term “murtad fitri” implies that the person has apostated from the faith in which he was born.
(2) “Murtad Milli” means a person who converted to Islam and then later on he rejects Islam. Milli is from millat which means religion. The term “murtad milli” implies that the person has apostated from his religion and the Muslim community.
In the first case, the apostasy is like the treason against God; whereas in the second case, the apostasy is like the treason against the Muslim community. Probably, that is why the Sh`iah jurisprudence deals with these two kinds of murtads differently:
· A former kãfir who became a Muslim and then apostates (murtad milli), he is given a second chance: if he repents, then he is not to be killed; but if he does not repent, then he is to be killed.
· But one who is born as a Muslim and then apostates (murtad fitri), he is to be killed even if he repents. It is important to understand that in case a murtad fitri repents, Allãh may accept his repentance and he may be forgiven in the hereafter, but he still has to go through the punishment prescribed for his treason in this world.[7]
If a President can’t openly defend, or even claim his faith, then what assurances do we have he’d defend us?

If the response is “so what”, direct them to his own campaign’s website “fight the smears” where they outright denied it and claimed this man born to an agnostic mother who twice married muslim men and was given a muslim was “always a Christian”.
Where/when was he baptised him? Who took him there? Certainly not his parents. His grandparents appear to have been non-observant (although his grandmother’s funeral was held at a Unitarian church).
I can accept that he is not a Christian, he has lied to the American public and repeatedly claimed that he is. I find this insulting as a Christian and him dishonest as a politician.
Go *&^% yourself...works for me every time...if I’m lucky, they never speak to me again...
The comeback, then he is a liar. His dad was a Muslim not agnostic, his grandmother is muslim not a christian as they told us. They are liars.
Ask them if they feel any different about living in an historically Muslim-run nation or living in a Christian one.
Because Islam isn’t a religion. It is a death-cult spawned by a pedophile rapist and murderer.
Of course, the entire Judeo-Christian heritage (of which Islam is a part) is based upon an “ethnic cleansing” of Judea by the Hebrews which included genocide, rape, kidnapping, infanticide and more.

OK, how about this:
“Why is beer better than Barack Obama?”
“Because beer has a better head and won’t raise your taxes!”
The USA is a republic, that is, it has a form of government that is instituted by humans, for the good of humans, using human reason.
The USA is not a theocracy, that is, a form of goverment by people who have been chosen on the basis of their orthodoxy towards the reigning religion, for the purpose of advancing that religion, using interpretation of religious texts as the guide.
Any muslim naturally tends towards seeing government in the latter category, since in Islam there is not fundamental distinction between Religion and State. In Islam, there are no “secondary causes,” all is directly influenced by Allah, and that includes government.
So, to answer your question: a muslim president would be a danger to the republic.
It matters because it means he is a liar.
Because Islam has declared war on the U.S. We have an enemy as Commander In Chief.
But in the case of Islam, there is no compatibility with those principles and the expressed intent of the religion is to bring all people under the banner of the authoritarian governmental style of Islam. In that order there is no personal freedom, no diversity.
