Wasn't Obama's mother a virulent atheist?
Not according to her daughter Maya.
In an interview with the New York Times, published on April 30th, 2007, Maya Soetoro-Ng, Obama’s younger half sister, told the Times, "My whole family was Muslim, and most of the people I knew were Muslim."
Although Anna Dunham is often described as an atheist, I assume Maya thinks of her mother as a member of her family.
I assume Maya also thinks of her brother, Obama, as a member of her family?
How else would one interpret that statement?
