What is Obama's religion? ("My Muslim faith")

I absolutely agree that it was an error on Obama's part to not stop George and set him straight, set America straight real quick on that little slip-up. And no, we don't need someone who is quicker than that. He has been regarded an intelligent and "gifted" man who is has great political ability. So i'd give him a pass on this slip up.

But if we don't want to let him go on this one, then I can just bring up something stupid McCain did or said. Hmm... bomb bomb iran was pretty bad.. then you can bring up something about barack... no flag pin... and then i could say mccain and his stupid sell stuff on ebay comment OR the lie he told about sarah palin making a profit on the plane she put on ebay. She put that plane on eBay because nobody in Alaska knew anyone who wanted to buy a luxury jet liner!

Would it not be one of the greatest conspiracies if indeed he was elected president and then did start doing things to undermine the United States.

Would our legislative branch be able to stop any things that would be hurtful. Could he fake an attack on the US from say Israel and then use that to cut off relations and thus military support for them throwing them to the wolves.

It could be one of the greatest conspiracies, and the fact that he sat through all those years of rev. wrights sermons could show his affinity for radical beliefs.

Conspiracy theorists you could run with this one and it would even make sense.

See my earlier ATS posts about Obama being a "Manchurian Candidate", like the book and movies by the same name.

After all has has come out of relative nowhere, and his background is under suspicion ...

Thought they where covered in crosses???

Isn't the Catholic Church that is known as "Pedophiles Anonymous", throughout the western world?

Wasn't it the American Catholic Church that nearly was bankrupted by having to pay large amounts of cash, to children they molested?

Didn't the Pope apologize, on behalf on the American Catholic Church, and the Irish Catholic Church, for these to organizations knowingly covering the tracks of pedophile priests, by sending them to other parishes, and even to other countries?

Didn't an American Bishop lose his chance of becoming Pope due to the repeated sexual scandals in the American Church?

Can you, honestly, think of any convicted pedophile who isen't a christian??

Looks like the only thing a pedophile is covered by is the cross!!!

...of course this those not mean that all christians are pedophiles, it just means all pedophiles are christians...

In SF "they" maybe "brainwashing" your children but, at least, they are not raping them...

WTF does this post have to do with this thread?

I don't know whether or not the argument over Obama being muslim has any legs or not. He has way more other negative issues other than an alleged religion.

But there is an interesting question

WHO would slip on an identification of their faith?

That's like slipping on an identification over their own sex

If one were a christian, it shouldn't take half a brain cell to identify oneself with their own religion.

But what is even MORE interesting is that McCain essentially did the same thing, albeit not in the same interview.




source article

I think these politicians have been so busy listening to their own consultants and handlers that even their personal reality is starting to slip away.

"It is something that will take many many votes away from him no matter how many times he says it was just a slip up."

I believe it will not take any votes away. Some media networks keep talking about the percentage of people who think Obama is muslim... as if thats a bad thing. The amount of people who actually care about his faith I think is very small. My work takes me all over the bible belt and very few people care about his faith or race. From what I've seen Obama supporters fear more of the same, opponents fear a change in the wrong direction.

I don't know what the big fuss is all about. Barack Hussein Obama is merely trying to practice what his original "religion" had taught him as a boy:

Taqiyya and Kitman

Move on......Nothing to see here

Taken out of context maybe?

I watched Judge Dredd (I am the law! haha!) last night for the umpteenth time and in the video they used as evidence where he shot the journalist, the journalist says "Dredd!" just before he gets shot. But it follows on from the conversation he was having just before he was shot.

hmm....i certainly havent seen anything indicating Mccain has integrity. Is it his involvement in the keating 5 your speaking of? Or his murdering of innocent vietnamese?

To the person who is afraid of obama becoming president then "undermining" america....you dont become president and then undermine...as president you can just change the way a country is going. As for undermining america, Bush has done plenty to undermine the american way of life, as he has destroyed much of our freedoms, just as reagan destroyed much of our fair news, just as Bush I and Clinton destroyed our protections from banking malpractice and corporate control. In what way do you think obama might be "undermining" us? By changing our foreign policy? any change there would be a good thing, and in fact he's running on the "Change" ticket. j
Not that i support him, just pointing facts out is all.

Getting confused as to what your religious beliefs are not what people do that tell the truth, If this was a court of law he would be found guilty by any jury , \


When is the last time YOU forgot your religion it dont happen "BUSTED"

Now we know he lied all this time , he was born a Muslim and now he keeps it a secret, For a guy that talks he screwed up big time

Then why lie just tell the truth ....See the point

He is runnig for a highest office you cant lie and gain trust

How about the Muslim Prophet Muhammid?


Taking a 3 year old as a wife...

Or how about the uber-leftiest Talk radio host in San Fransicko?

Oh come on. Only for democrats is lieing an impeachable offense apparently. Clinton lied about a blow job and we never heard the end of it. Bush lied to get us into a war and its never brought up, even after the deaths of 1.2 million iraqis. Mccain was a member of the Keating 5 for christsakes. So lets not pretend that we elect honest representatives.

hey, i dont know about "convicted" but my ex was from saudi arabia, and she said that there all the mothers are deathly afraid of leaving their little boys unsupervised because little boys are constantly being picked up and raped by men over there. I work on psyche wards, and i have seen little children, boys usually, raped by their uncles in arabic countries, so no, not all pedofiles are christian by any means.

Did you bother to click on the links? Did you detect ANY sarcasm in my original post?

I'll try to explain. You see, there is a teaching in the texts of the holy books of Islam that specifically says it is OK to lie to a non-Muslim or "the enemy" in order to lull them into a sense of comfort so you can vanquish them later.

Thats.....pretty much the gist of it!

As someone said above, you don't "forget" what religion you are! Also, if you know anything about the signs of people who are telling a lie, Obama is clearly aware of what he was saying the first time and only displayed the fidgety eye-blinking when he later claimed to have "Christian belief".

If I am the one misunderstanding and you did detect the sarcasm, then I guess what I'm trying to say is that after 9-11-2001, I suppose Obama would be thinking that the electability in the U.S. of a MUSLIM would be a long-shot. A person with Obama's hunger for power would have reason enough to lie about being a practicing Muslim?

cree wolf, when asked my religion i often answer differently based on where i am at the time. Sometimes i answer buddhism, sometimes shamanism, and others taoism. So perhaps he considers himself several things as well. In the end you can believe all or none, and all religions dont necessarily have to contradict each other. There are some ideas in christianity i embrace as well....though i do actually believe that jesus, if he truly lived, was a buddhist.

Yea I almost forgot about Tiqqiya.

I don't think Obama is smart enough for that level of deception but those lefties sure would be mad if Obama did the most massive Manchurian Candidate move due to the fact that Islam is more against the ideals of liberal society than conservative society.

Was he convicted?

Different time periods have different values. My grandma was married when she was 14, my grandpa was 18, was he a pedophile?
It was the custom. If a girl wasn't married, in those days, by the time she reached 18, her family would probably put her in a monastery. She would be too old, unless, that is, the family was very rich, or had a high ranking title associated to their name...

Besides many people where married because of land deals, title rights, and all sorts of pacts and alliances between families, be they military, economical, or for prestige sake. Many rich merchants and traders married into the impoverished nobility just for the Title.

I refuse to believe anybody would actually consummate a matrimony, have sex, with a 3 year old...

As for the SF DJ, again, has he been convicted? What is his religion? Who is he, and what does the fact that he is left wing have to do with his religion?

There are many left wing European politicians that are religious, some of them are even communists (very usual in Italy, Spain and Portugal).
