That is correct. All of the Muslim acquaintances I have spoken to said that Obama is a MUSLIM. When I asked why they say this since Obama claims he’s a Christian, they all replied: “He’s just saying that to get elected. Everyone in the Middle East knows Obama supports Islam and is one of us.”
I hope you don't mind that I pinged a few people because of the importance of this subject.
This is a very sensitive subject in the United States and from what I have seen in the MSM and even heard from Conservative columnists is that the subject is taboo.
Everywhere and you will see people being castigated for mentioning Obama's Muslim heritage or for suggesting that he may be some stealth Muslim or something. Much of this has to do with the American viewpoint of religion and that is that religion is a very private and personal matter, but for the Muslim world outside of the United States there is no privacy in religious matters.
The reality is that Obama himself gives conflicting signals with regards to his religion. Signals that are interpreted by many Muslims overseas to be that "he is one of them".
In America Obama can simply say "I am a Christian" and Americans find themselves compelled to believe him - even if does not adhere, respect or pay homage the tenets of Christianity. Simply saying "I am a Christian" ends all discussion on the matter.
But we judge people by their deeds and not simply by their words and this is the reason that the so-called rumors and the confusion continues to persist.
Think for a minute...
Does not buy Christmas presents for the children, Changed his name back from Barry Soetoro to Barack Obama... the list goes on, but most importantly was one thing that is often overlooked.
The affirmation of faith.
Obama recited the opening lines to the Muslim call to prayer in Arabic before a NYT reporter and claimed it was the most beautiful sound at sunset.
The opening lines to the Muslim call to prayer is called "shahada" - it is the affirmation of faith for Muslims - that is how one "becomes a Muslim", by reciting the opening lines in Arabic which Obama did with a perfect accent. And then he claims later to be a Christian.
Just Words?
This is not a laughing matter nor is this something that people should ignore. What is most disturbing about this is that Barack Obama studied Islam and he knows full well what those words mean when you recite them in Arabic. The Muslim world knows as well.
The only ones who dont have a clue it would seem are the Americans who seem to think that these are "just words" - they are not.
