Listen, do you want to criticize someone for their religion? (When it is not even their religion) Or do you want to criticize someone because their thinking is so far outside the mainstream and would be damaging to the country? Don’t fall for the trap.
No one is criticizing him for having been Muslim and converting when he met and married his wife, Michelle Robinson.
He is being hounded because he has lied repeatedly about NOT having been a Muslim in the past. It is the lies we are emphasizing here Nick.
His half-brothers and his sister Maya have all said he was Muslim. He even admitted in his memoirs to having studied the Koran and can recite, in perfect Arabic, the Muslim call to prayer.
Few would fault him for having been deeply religous - it is the lies that send up red flags for so many.
