I don't think Obama was ever a practicing Muslim, but since his father was, under Sharia law, he was a Muslim at birth. When he registered for Catholic school in Indonesia, the forms listed his religion as Muslim. Again, in a Muslim country it was probably the easiest thing to put down. I'll accept that. Given that he spent his teen years getting high most of the time, it doesn't sound like he was serious about religion. Then he claims he was introduced to Christianity by Rev. Wright. Well, that's a pretty strange brand of “Christianity” but let's assume he is being sincere.

There are two things that are indisputable. First, most Muslims around the world consider him to be a Muslim. At a recent Islamic summit reporters noted the buzz around the event was that it looked like America was about to elect a Muslim president. What proof of the greatness of Allah!

The second is that under Sharia, Obama by his own account is an appostate. That is a crime, one that must be punished by death. If he is elected, it will become known fairly soon throughout the Muslim world that he is an apostate. It will be the obligation of the faithful to kill him. How is that going to affect American relations with the Muslim world? It's one thing to have dealings with Christians. That's allowed under Islamic law under strict guidelines. But dealing with an apostate is an entirely different matter. It's going to be an issue if he is elected, and it ought to be brought up if he gets the nomination.
