Last week, the media, White House and nation were in a hullabaloo over a Pew Research Center poll which revealed that one in five Americans believe President Obama is a Muslim.
The poll received so much attention and response that the White House released a rebuttal reiterating that Obama is "a committed Christian."
The fact is, Americans are more baffled now by Obama's personal religion than they were when he first came into office.
John Green, University of Akron politics professor and senior fellow with the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life, concluded, "I haven't seen any example, and I've been following polling of presidents for a long time now, of where we've seen increased confusion about religiosity the longer they're in office."
Part of the confusion comes, for example, when Obama doesn't make room to commemorate a National Day of Prayer with prominent Christian leaders or even spend time with the God-centered Boy Scouts of America at their national jamboree (as preceding presidents have), but he doesn't miss hosting the Muslim Iftar Ramadan dinner at the White House or pass up the chance to fight for the rights of Muslims to construct an Islamic mosque near Ground Zero.
At times, Obama has given pointed responses about his faith in Christ. At other times, he comes across ambiguous and even clueless about his faith. Still, at other times, he is downright condescending about the Christian faith.
With all the confusion and quandaries about Obama's religion lately, I rearranged the order of this four-part series to detail today exactly what Obama believes, including his beliefs about prayer, sin, heaven, the Bible and the person of Jesus, based upon a rare in-depth interview by a religious reporter of a major newspaper publication.

Chuck’s got guts.
How about offering our President a ham sandwich?
You don’t have a “President”.
The so-called “Obama” (aka Soetoro Soebarkah) is a British subject, and therefore cannot be President of the US.
‘”a committed Christian.”
He can’t be that ‘committed’.
I still see him running loose all over the place.
Do “Christians” lie, cheat and steal that much?
He is a *#*¤** Mohammedan Communist, like his alleged father.
He writes well too!
1 out of 5 believes he’s a Muslim? So four out of five Americans are still clueless. 20 percent in about 2 years have figured out the truth. Slow learners, but at that rate of progress, there might be some “hope” (pardon the pun).
Great article by Chuck Norris, who cites public statements and interviews that demoIish Obama’s claim of being a “committed Christian”.
My own take is that Obama is an atheist, like most of his communist pals. That and his narcissism are consistent with is definition of “sin” as “being out of alignment with my values” . Sure, he went to a Muslim school as a child, but his main influences while growing up were his radical parents and grandfather and the like-minded people they hung out with.
The something that is “rotten in Denmark” is Obama’s alienation and hostility, toward the people who elected him, and his inability to empathize with their concerns. Also apparent in his manner is a visceral contempt for American values and our concept of individual rights.
Actually, it’s 1-in-4:
1-in-4 Americans Believe Obama is a Muslim; Here’s Why

Uh, Sorry, TIME, Technically Obama IS a Muslim (Debbie Schlussel Skewers Hot Air & Time)

Yeah! and he’s also got a mind. I hope he gets involved in Republican politics again.
I’ll also got to give “Walker Texas Ranger” a try. My wife is DVR’ing the reruns.
“I believe that there are many paths to the same place...”
If that is true for him, then he does not believe Jesus when He said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
He is not a Christian - a follower of (or believer in) Jesus Christ and his teachings.
It might reflect 1 out of 5 Americans who understand and believe in Christ, also consider Obama to be a Muslim and not Christian.
I’ve found Muslim advocates to fundamentally have a problem grasping the topic of justice from a divine perspective.
Instead, they seek to counterfeit Divine Justice with their perception of vengeance as a substitute for justice wherever they also perceive unrighteousness. Then they simply seek to perform what is right in their own minds.
By failing to recognize they have nothing perfectly righteous to offer in exchange for any past unrighteousness to God for His Just judgment, they seek to overtly oppose evil without considering their personal position to lack any righteous merit.
LOL reminds me of what I heard out Pastor say once, “While there are ‘many paths’ to the top of the mountain, once there one finds a gate...one gate, Jesus.”
Thank you Chuck Norris. God bless you.
Good article. It smashes any pretense that 0 believes in the Bible. I would note that the first Sunday after 0 issued a press release declaring how devout a Christian he is, found him on a golf course.
And God said, “Let there be light,” and Chuck Norris said, “Say please!”
“Walker” is a really cute show with a good cast and excellent Texas scenery. You have to do the “suspension of disbelief” thing, of course, but reality can be tedious anyway.
