Barack Obama states he does not practice the Muslim faith. Posters here on Answers state he is Muslim, which?

Question

is true? Is the US ready for a Muslim President? I think not. The Quran does preach death to infidels.

I needed to ask the question to make a point.

Answer 1

Barack belongs to the Christian faith. As a child he attended a Muslim school. Personally with his left leaning ways he is entirely too far off base for comfort.

Answer 2

The U.S. is ready for any change that will bring about jobs, health care and money back to the American people. We have suffered enough already. We need to focus more on the problems we have at home than waging wars elsewhere. Whether Barack is a Muslim or not is beside anyone's concerns. If he is Muslim that is a great aspect. He will represent the many Muslims who love this country and enjoy living here. By the way, the Quran does not preach hate. I have read it and being a Christian, I find it as a fascinating scripture. Muslims are Great people. Those who kill in the name of Islam are not true Muslims. They are followers of Satan. Islam in Arabic is another word for Peace, like salam or shalom. we need to stop discriminating and start loving because America stands for that. The media preaches too much hate to all walks of life, so try to do some reading on your own. Good Luck!

Answer 3

/////////////////////////by potential of definition, a Muslim is often reasonable while comparing to a Jew and a Christian. 'Islam to dominate the international' is a Christian's propaganda taught in Sunday college. of course,the religion will dominate the international's faith because it teaches moderation and familiar values.particularly,it would not teaches subjugation,oppression and genocide. we can see that Christianity had wiped sparkling up each and all of the messes if we don't comprehend history. the actuality that Christianity had created each and all of the messes of the international we are in now's unquestionably familiar.////////////////// do not attempt to cover a extensive PUMPKIN IN A PLATE full of RICE! DUDE ARE you particularly severe THAT this is CHRISTIAN PROPAGANDA? THEN WHO those WHO HELD THE BANNER IN LONDON, CLAIMING ISLAM WILL DOMINATE the international! CHRISTIANS??? circulate study YOUR QURAN AND ALL SAHIH HADITHS FIRST earlier COMING AND POSTING , you already know not something approximately YOUR faith yet you're saying stupid issues! LOL known MUSLIM DECEPTION!

Answer 4

Does it matter? The Constitution does state that there shall be no religious test as a requirement of public office.

The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.

Answer 5

Sigh.

There are a lot of hate-filled morons who use this site. Why would you asusme they know more about Obama's religious beliefs than HE does?

No, the Quran does NOT preach death to non-believers.

You're really keen to believe every lie you're told, aren't you?

Answer 6

Obama is not muslim.
He is a christian.
http://faith.barackobama.com/page/content/faithhome

Obama is especially proud of being a husband and father of two daughters, Malia, 9 and Sasha, 6. Obama and his wife, Michelle, married in 1992 and live on Chicago’s South Side where they attend Trinity United Church of Christ.

Barack Obama was born on August 4th, 1961, in Hawaii to Barack Obama, Sr. and Ann Dunham. Obama graduated from Columbia University in 1983, and moved to Chicago in 1985 to work for a church-based group seeking to improve living conditions in poor neighborhoods plagued with crime and high unemployment. In 1991, Obama graduated from Harvard Law School where he was the first African American president of the Harvard Law Review.

Answer 7

Moderate Muslims are not that extreme. As for President of the country I will still base my vote and follow any American selected. I judge them by their character and not the color of skin, religion, or gender.

Answer 8

He isn't, nor was he ever. That was a rumor spread around by Fox News and the Washington Times.

Fraz- that was Keith Ellison who was sworn in with a Quran.

Answer 9

Last time I checked in America we had this little freedom of religion thing going. In other words - his religion or lack thereof is no one's business but his unless he makes it public.

Thumbs down? Amazing - You can be any religion you choose - as long as you're a Christian. Man I really hope that was because the person dislikes me or we are in worse shape than I ever feared.

Answer 10

He was raised in a muslim household and was educated in a wohabi school a very strict sect of the muslim religion. Obama has both the bible and koran in his home.
