Difference is, it’s not part of the Christian credo to lie to Muslims. It is part of Islam for Muslims to lie to Christians on exactly such things.

You were saying ...

While Taqiyya is part of Islam, and not something that is part of Christianity -- I don't think that either Islam or Christianity wants to claim Obama for their group ... LOL ...

Obama is neither of them and none of them -- but to whomever asks, he is all of them ... :-)

In other words, he is an ardent adherent to Syncretism ...

Syncretism

Syncretism is the attempt to reconcile disparate or contrary beliefs, often while melding practices of various schools of thought. The term means "combining," but see below for the origin of the word. Syncretism may involve attempts to merge and analogise several originally discrete traditions, especially in the theology and mythology of religion, and thus assert an underlying unity allowing for an inclusive approach to other faiths.

Syncretism also occurs commonly in expressions of arts and culture (see eclecticism) as well as politics (see syncretic politics).

This most adequately explains Obama ...
