More Americans believe Obama is Muslim
AFP ^ | August 19 2010 | AFP

nearly one in five respondents on the survey said they believed he is a practitioner of Islam, while only 34 percent of Americans correctly identified him as a Christian, down sharply from a year earlier.

The poll was conducted by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life.

Meanwhile, the percentage of people who say they are unsure what religion Obama practices has risen to 43 percent, from 34 percent a year ago.

The poll found one third of conservative Republicans believe Obama is a Muslim, a figure that has nearly doubled. But the president's faith was incorrectly identified by rising numbers of Democrats and independents too.

Some 18 percent of independent voters thought Obama was Muslim, up eight percentage points, and fewer than half the president's Democratic supporter believe him to be a Christian.

The Pew survey polled 3,003 respondents between July 21 and August 5, and had a plus-or-minus 2.5 percent sampling error.

Well, duh.
Perhaps the first family has picked a church?
No?
Why? Because marxist non-practicing muslims don’t need to pick a church.....

I heard Glenn Beck ridiculing this first thing on his show this morning. He says, “Really?!”

Um, yeah, Glenn. Really. Love you, man, but... REALLY. Have you been paying attention? You always tell us to listen carefully to their words and watch their actions. That is what we are doing....

You think they couldn’t figure that out? He is a hard core rotten communists radical Muslim and his only major thing in life is to destroy America and become its first dictator. He won the lottery and fun is all this empty head fool knows.

He's demonstrated that he does not share my values as an American.

In fact, I view him as being anti-American and out to extract some type of revenge on Americans.

He must be removed from office before he injures us further.

I do not believe that Obama is a Muslim...he likes booze too much.

I do not believe that Obama is a Christian...he just uses them for a backdrop.

I do not believe that Obama is a Jew...he hates them.

I believe that Obama is a devout Marxist and as such, is an Athiest.

I do NOT believe it.

I think this guy is such a supreme egotist that he finds it impossible to accept that there is anything greater then himself. The only worshiping he does is in front of a mirror!

Of course I also believe he is so full of it that he could be put on the EPA Superfund list.

Well he goes out of his way to demonstrate accomodation of Islam, from his speech to the Muslim world to events like the Ramadan dinner.

Does he do a Christmas dinner at the White House?

Didn’t he cancel the National Day of Prayer? Which would have been predominantly Christian in nature? Yet he hosts a high profile Ramadan dinner.

He pronounces “Koran” with an accent which sounds like the Arabic pronunciation, rather than the Anglicized pronunciation.

Isn’t it a fact that the Obama family does not go to church or attend religious services in Washington? They have not yet found a church to attend? Yet he’s allegedly a devout Christian?

All of these types of things happening cause people to doubt that he is Christian and think he is Muslim. Especially since he was raised in Islam for big parts of his childhood.

Has anyone been paying attention to his eating habits since Ramadan started last week? Does he eat and drink during the daytime which is prohibited to Muslims during this month?

Obama’s father was Muslim,
which means he was born a Muslim.
Muslims who convert to Christianity are subject to beheading,

and are not called “our son” by Muammar Qadaffi on the floor of the UN.

Nothing much more can be said about Glenn Beck except, he jumped the shark a while back. I don’t know what game he is playing at but it’s one where he’s going to keep hemorrhaging listeners until he becomes a true conservative again.

There’s a local talk show host here that was very close with Beck before Beck got his TV show. He went to visit him recently and Beck had handlers with him and could only “speak” with the local host for a few minutes before being ushered away.

Beck has moved on to that celebrity kingdom where upon he lives in his own little bubble, and only has YES MEN around him.

Love Glenn but he has too things wrong. Faith without works is dead and King Obama will not be overthrown peacefully. Christians must march and if the sword is our weapon, then so be it. Second he is a hard core Muslim. Wake up Glenn.

....correctly [sic!] identified him as a Christian....

REALLY? Diddly-twaddle!!!!

obama is a muslim.

The idea that he is a Christian is sheer taqiyya. And his disguise gets thinner all the time, which is why more and more Americans are recognizing that obama is a muslim.

obama is carrying out a form of jihad, and selling us out to islam. WAKE UP, America!!!!

Despite Obama's attendance in church...

What church? He has not attended church since he was elected. Nice try.

nearly one in five respondents on the survey said they believed he is a practitioner of Islam

Since when is 24% "nearly 1 in 5". More like "nearly 1 in 4."

Time puts the figure at nearly 1 in 4:

Irrespective of what people believe, Obama is not a Muslim; he is not a Christian; he is a godless son of a bitch who will say and do anything to ruin the foundations of this country.
