Obama's faith: Christianity or Islam?
World Net Daily ^ | June 23, 2010 | Pieder Beeli

By his eponymous father and by his Indonesian rearing – where both his school records and the predominant culture was Islamic – Barack Obama has an Islamic heritage.

Yet Obama has publicly professed himself to be a Christian. How do the opposing forces of Islam and Christianity play out in Obama's mind?

Often we can tell the truth about what someone believes by performing an inferential or forensic analysis. We analyze what is implied rather than what is explicitly stated. This is especially helpful for the case of Obama for whom there are over 150 documented lies.

In light of the Islamic sanction of taqiyya, this sort of analysis could be especially valuable. Taqiyya has its origins in the prophet of Islam who allowed one of his followers to lie in order to kill someone who mocked the prophet.

Central tenet of the faith

When speaking of the origins of Islam, why does Obama use the word "revealed"? In his Cairo speech, Obama said, "I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed [emphasis added]." One does not expect a Christian to suggest that God revealed Islam to Muhammad for the simple reason that if God did such, then Christianity is wrong.

What would the world look like under Shariah law? Find out in Nonie Darwish's "Cruel and Usual Punishment: The Terrifying Global Implications of Islamic Law"

Why would not Obama instead choose to say, "when Islam was invented" or "fabricated – or at least use the more equipoise "when Islam began…"?

I find this especially telling in that I have not been able to find Obama use the term "revealed" to speak of God's doings in a Judeo-Christian context. For example, I have not heard Obama affirm the central Christian tenet...

The Bible tells us, You shall know the tree from its fruits. By examining Obama's fruits, we find his faith to be far more rooted in Islam than in Christianity.

He is sympathetic to Islam but he’s a marxist first.

Christianity worships Jesus. Islam worships Allah.

Barack Obama worships...himself.

IMHO Baraq has little faith in anything spiritual.

All his faith is in government (when he’s running it, anyway)

“Obama’s faith” Christianity or Islam?”

Probably neither. Like a lot of politicians he tailors what he says to the intended audience.

Likewise, if you look at the writings of some of the founding fathers, you can find quotes that suggest they were anything from devout Christians to militant atheists.

I think you will find him to be a nast hybrid of Marxist and Black Liberation Theologist....which, after all, are so similar in both theory and practice.

Or he could be an atheist who used Rev Wright to get high in Chicago politics.

I doubt very much if he has faith at all in a Supreme Being or the spiritual nature of man and woman . His cynical ,vain , and corrupt exploitation of religion would cause a believer to fear he was in danger of losing his immortal soul .

“All his faith is in government (when he’s running it, anyway)”

Obama is a narcissist with a messianic complex who pontificates on the glory of government.

From Pam Geller's blog, quoting an Israeli official, with alterations by Honorary Serb:

Obama ...is Israel’s America's biggest strategic catastrophe.”

Barack Hussein Muhammad obama, a master of taqiyya, thinks muslim in everything he does--foreign policy (NOT just about Israel), health care, immigration, border security, his cracked fiscal policy--you name it. All for the ummah, only serfdom, death and destruction for the kuffar!!!!

Think about it!!!!
