I heard a rumor about this a while back, and I would really like to know if he is still Muslim. Please answer my question if you are 100% sure you know the answer.

Could be, he is a politician and they have been known to stretch the truth a bit.

It has been widely reported now that he at least was a Muslim and spent part of his youth being educated in a Maddrasah. For those that say it doesn't matter, are you the same individuals that slam President Bush for his Christianity? Now that H. Clinton has basically announced she will seek the presidency, the mud will start flying. Prepare yourself, you'll soon know more about Obama and Edwards than you can stomach. I have no interest in any of these individuals, but it should be fun watching them all now.

I have no clue. But is it really important? No way this 2 yr senator will be president. HOWEVER....it is kinda' scary to think that Obama may be the anti-christ if he *does* ever become president. He came on the public scene so quickly and people don't even think about what he stands for. They blindly follow this charasmatic man as if he were the pied piper of hamlin.

Considering he belongs to the United Church of Christ, that would be a "no".
He does have a very interesting past, a story that most people in this country would benefit from hearing.

Yes, but like most Muslims in the USA these days they are staying low profile until they hear the right code word in a bin Laden video, then out come the red headbands.

I believe Obama is a christian. Wasn't there a big story recently on the first Muslim installed in Congress?

No, he is no longer a Muslim. He is active in a Church of Christ congregation.

He was never a Muslim, he is a member of the United Church of Christ. He's of Kenyan descent, not Arabic.

I think if it's a presidential run between Obama and Clinton, Hillary will be president....
There is NO way he will EVER be president...when that day comes, I have a premonition that he will be the next assassinated president.

BOTH SENATOR AND HIS WIFE BELONG TO United Church of Christ in Chicago. That is as is written in congressional records.
