Ever since he began running for president in 2007, Barack Obama has been dogged by rumors that he's secretly a Muslim. Whether it's his exotic name and background, the color of his skin, or (most likely) some combination of the two, the Muslim lie just doesn't seem to go away.
Each time it has begun to fade from public discussion, the Muslim rumor has cropped up again, like it did last year when real estate tycoon Donald Trump, who was publicly weighing a presidential bid at the time, insisted he had evidence showing Obama wasn't born in the United States (and that his birth certificate might show that he's Muslim).
In response, the president eventually took the extraordinary step of releasing his long form birth ceritificate, which showed he was born in Hawaii as claimed. But a new Gallup poll finds that even now, a healthy chunk of Americans believe the rumor:
Just 34% of Americans correctly say U.S. President Barack Obama is a Christian, while 44% say they don't know Obama's religion and 11% say he is a Muslim.
Obama is a Christian and has labeled himself as such as in his writings and interviews, and while living in Chicago he attended the Trinity United Church of Christ. Since moving into the White House, Obama has attended several different Christian churches.
Americans are indeed more likely to say Obama is a Christian -- mostly a generic "Christian" or "Protestant" -- than to say he identifies with any other religion. In addition to those who name a specific religion or don't offer a guess, 8% say he does not have a religious affiliation...

And he recited the shahada* in public, in arabic, on video.
If you say it, then you affirm you’re Muslim!
*”There is no god but........”
(Need link!)
And if he’s still a secret muslim, pretending under taquiyya to be Christian, then there would be no fatwa issued against him accusing him of apostasy.
“The dog didn’t bark” applies here.
(yeh, I know, bad analogy for Muslims, but couldn’t find another saying that would apply)
Link to information, please.
Very important IF TRUE.
If he is an agent for the Muslim Brotherhood then, yes, I would have to agree.
In Audacity of Hope, page 261, Barack Hussein Obama writes:
I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.

P.S. Madras is a city in India.
Excellent summary. I believe that 0bama sees his god every time he looks in a mirror.
There once was a lass from Madras...
I thought it was a lad. (If it isn’t, it makes the rest of limerick very disturbing.)
The “lass” was after a sex change operation.
Sounds like an old flame of Zer0’s.
It is not for me to say if he is a Christian or not, but i see no evidence but that is not my business and i don,t think he is a citizen.
Why did it take so long to produce a so called certificate of birth which could easily be a fake, why not proudly present it to show every one that he was proud to be a citizen.
Unless he did it that way to keep the attention off of something even more vulgar than not being a citizen which would most likely be just an addition to not being a citizen.
