Starts with "b", ends with "igotry",

and there's nothing in between, a fact the word shares common ground with the left and right ears of people who argue that he isn't Christian.

If one doesn't think a smooth talking politically motivated elitist Harvard lawyer is being honest, one is a bigot?

How do you know Obama is a Christian? Please tell us.

About his faith? Which Scotty am I talking to? The one who criticises him for being a member of Jeremiah Wright's church, or the one that thinks he's a Muslim? You can't have it both ways. You'd have to believe that he was a Christian and a Muslim, and that would be silly, no?

Obama isn't an arab. He's of white american/Kenyan descent. He has an Arabic middle name inherited from his atheist(former muslim) Kenyan father.

I can get how someone could hear the name "Barrack Hussein Obama" and think
"huh maybe he's a Muslim. " They might then ask him if he is. I imagine it might go like this.

Person:" Hey Obama are you a Muslim?"
Obama "nope,I'm a Christian "
Person: "oh, which Church do you go to?"
Obama: " I went to this church for over 20 years"
Person: "cool, cya later Obama!"
Obama: "later"

That's where any reasonable person would end it. Any more is just crazy gibberish.

Any intelligent person would think it would end there, but the people espousing this have proven time and again that they aren't intelligent, They do not think for themselves, they rely on fox news to do all their thinking for them.

"Tells me agin Mr Fox, what should I think bout Obama's middle name? Huss Sane? Say agin? Dat's an arab name? OK's I gets it. He from dem sandy lands where da mousselems live right? OK's, I go spreads da word."

And how does "reasonable" fit into the reality that Obama distanced himself from the Church that he went to for "over" 20 years????? Can he really still use that as "proof"?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_liberation_theology
Trinity United Church of Christ, Chicago is the church most frequently cited by press accounts, and by Cone as the best example of a church formally founded on the vision of Black liberation theology.[17] The 2008 Jeremiah Wright controversy, over differing interpretations of some of his sermons and statements, caused then-Senator Barack Obama to distance himself from his former pastor.[18][19]
you are right (round and round we go!). I have not seen a single person say Obama is an Arab.

The name Hussein is Arab though. It means "blessed" or "handsome" in Arabic. Will you at least admit it's and Arab word??

Allow me to counter your evidence of Obama being a Christian.

Person: "Hey, GW Bush. Do you love peace?"
Bush: "Yes, I love peace. Everything I do is peaceful."
Person: "Oh? How do you feel about Micronesia?"
Bush: "I have no plans to invade Micronesia. We want peace with Micronesia."
Person: "Cool! Cya later Bush!"
Bush: "Later holmes."

GW Bush is a peacemonger.

Do you even try to be honest anymore? I have never said or thought Obama was a Muslim... :roll: If I thought he was a Muslim, I would have voted Muslim. I did not vote Muslim. That doesn't mean his name is not associated with Muslims to other people.

"it" Yes, Obama being a member of Black Liberation theology Church of Jeremiah Wrights has something to do with Obama's faith being Black Liberation Theology." That is how I voted (for the 8th time).



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_liberation_theology

It's an offshoot of Christianity. They call themselves "Social Christian's" and often speak of "Collective Salvation". Some even call it Marxist theology... :o

Scotty what is your point in this thread?

You keep saying things like "he was born Muslim" or 'his middle name is Hussein which is an arab name and 95% of arabs are Muslim" but then when asked if you think he is Muslim it's "Woah woah woah! for the 100th time he's a type of Christian I don't like!"

What's your point? Why do you keep asking these leading questions about his name and how it sounds Muslim?

As I've said many times. Anything I said about the Muslim debate was in the context of "you have to admit how some people will associate Obama with Muslims, based on his name" and "that does not make people who associate him with Muslims stupid or crazy". I was just saying how it is understandable, and other people should realize that.

We only had to get as deep as you pointed out because people cannot admit something so simple.

ok. However a few years into his presidency I would think everyone would know by now. I mean its been talked about to death and a simple google search will provide the answer.

Would you not agree that anyone still insisting he's a Muslim are probably more than just mistaken due to his name?

Out of all the votes on this poll, only 3 votes are right. I know I'm one!

I am curious, who are the other 2?

So, this is the guy who helped Obama find Jesus? "Good enough for me!"

Wow, Obama did not become a Christianit until he was almost 30????? I wasn't aware of that either. Maybe, just maybe, that is a legitimate reason for all the confusion about Obama's faith.

I however am CERTAIN that it had nothing to do with his desire to be a politician.....

If that's true, then that's a good question. I have no idea, but my public choice instincts tell me, "yes." Maximize votes! Maximize votes! Become more "photogenic!"

Oh please. You cannot be THAT ignorant.

Obama is a Christian, has always followed the Christian faith, though he has knowledge of other faiths.. as a well-educated person ought.

But the greater question is who cares? Why does a person's religion matter, unless you are an ignorant idiot who thinks that only those who follow your particular brand of Christianity are worthy people?
