If there's nothing wrong with being Muslim, why is Obama so upset?
American Thinker ^ | 09/19/2015 | Ed Strak

Posted on 09/20/2015 6:20:07 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

There was a Seinfeld episode where Jerry repeatedly denied being gay but was quick to add, "Not that there's anything wrong with that."  This sitcom episode is being repeated, with Obama replacing Jerry and Islam replacing homosexuality.

Obama says he's not a Muslim.  Fine.  But if there's nothing wrong with being Muslim, what's the problem with people who erroneously say he is?  After all, liberals agree with what Carly Fiorina said about Islam, right after 9/11:

There was once a civilization that was the greatest in the world. Its architects designed buildings that defied gravity. Its mathematicians created the algebra and algorithms that would enable the building of computers, and the creation of encryption. Its doctors examined the human body, and found new cures for disease. Its astronomers looked into the heavens, named the stars, and paved the way for space travel and exploration.

Its writers created thousands of stories. Stories of courage, romance and magic. Its poets wrote of love, when others before them were too steeped in fear to think of such things.

So then shouldn't Obama be flattered to be included, even mistakenly, in this religion of inventors, philosophers, and romance?  He sure doesn't act like it!

The real secret is not that Obama fears being called a Muslim.  It's not about that at all.

It's really about Obama fearing being called overly sympathetic to Muslims.  That's why so many people think he's Muslim: because his words and actions support Muslims, especially the radical kind.

The Imam could have softened the impact of 1/3 of Americans thinking he is what he actually is by actually going to a Christian Church more than once or twice while he was in office. Heck, he didn’t even do the “bible carry” routine Slick was famous for.

Ben Carson has spoken about what he thinks about Islam, not for America.

Islam makes America UN-great.

Well, If people leave the Muslim faith from what I read its death.

His Grandfather , father and step father were Muslim.

How did he leave the Muslim faith?

I agree he loves all things Muslim so why does he have a heart attack if any questions his Christian faith.

Bancroft , hint he is not a regular at any Christian church.

Trump has this one correct. You don't define other people's religious views for them. Why aren't the talking fools asking Obama to clarify his religious views?

Trump handled that question perfectly. With amusement in his expression, he said let the questioner continue.

I just watched Stephie on ABC beg, and I mean beg Trump to call Obama a Christian and born in USA.

Trump, "Obama can defend himself"

Next up: Rubio

'Yes, Obama is Christian & born in USA"

When was he ever baptized, inducted or professed Christian?

Did he get this in Rev. Wright’s Church of Black Liberation Theology? Was the ‘baptism’ a profession of hate for America, white people, or both?

Or, did he just get any religion necessary to fulfill the terms of the deal he signed in blood with Satan? What he’s done while in office can only be considered evil.

Rubberio has already shown us with his Gang activities just how flexibe he is.

No one can be certain about anything about Obama.
The only thing anyone has seen is an image on the internet.

islam is a political construct more radical than anything else in the world. It is a little bit NAZI, a little bit Pol Pot, a little bit of the Mayans who believed in human sacrifice and a whole lot Satanic. It is not a religion and is more akin to a cancer kissed with more than a dab of Seppuku. It has dominated the middle east for centuries where its growth has been sustained by the inbreeding of its followers who routinely intermarry interfamily.

islam should be outlawed in the west, mosques should be destroyed and so should mecca if areas like the United States intend to maintain their current political systems.

America should never again elect anyone who even a hint of moslem in them.

It needs to be said often, loudly and unapologetically. America has a Christian hating Muslim loving deceiver as POTUS.

He never attended a real Christian church. He associates Christianity with white Western cultural colonialism. HE WAS RAISED AS A FREAKING MUSLIM. He is very quick to defend the slightest perceived insult to Islam. He is very quick to use Christianity's tolerant nature against it by promoting and injecting sexual deviant perverted politics into it. His chief of staff is an Iranian. He embraces the Muslim Brotherhood. He is anti Semitic, attempting to weaken and eventually destroy Israel. And, he has changed sides in the war on terror, and is providing comfort and support for the greatest terrorist state on earth.

Right! He could have done that shyster one better by carrying a BIGGER Bible... That would impress us. UGH! Those people are all so far away from we normal people, aren’t they?

It is curious how the media and a few politicians (mostly of the R persuasion and vying for the position of president) have come out so defensively against a comment that was made by a private citizen.

The media grabbed the soundbite and ran with it, even though the actual ‘question’ of the citizen had to do with terrorist training camps in the US.

This certainly isn’t the first time the media has run with a half-trust or manufactured offense.

Note that these same media were certainly not defending Trump a couple of weeks ago when he was getting questioned about the sincerity or level of his religious beliefs.

Carly wrong about history. The Islamic Caliphates took knowledge from those they slaughtered and used it for their own, they built nothing - their Jewish and Christian slaves designed and built their ‘wonders’. Everything they came across was judge by the standards: If it is in the koran, it is superfluous and must be destroyed; If it is not in the koran, then it is anathema and must be destroyed.

The Caliphates destroyed Classical Western civilization scroll by scroll, library by library, scholar by scholar until there was only the faint image we posses today. Christianity as practiced today is also only a shadow of Christianity of the Classical world.

Meanwhile this “once greatest civilization in the world” turned the “grain basket of the ancient world” (Mauritania to Egypt) into desert by loosing vast herds of goats to devour all the vegetation, used slaves to destroy the irrigation systems and the cities that supported them.

As North Africa was being desertified, the ‘Great Civilization’ in waged 528 wars, slaughtering millions, enslaving others, sold pretty girls and boys into their harems.

It is easy to argue that instead of being the “once greatest civilization in the world,” the Caliphates destroyed the real once greatest civilization in the world.

Yeah Carly, your are wrong, and so what else will you attempt to deceive us about?

Funny how leftists require everyone to swear conformity with their chosen undeniable truths. Global warming? You must profess believe. Homosexuality? Don't you dare resist it. Diversity? Sure, we are stronger by having uninvited unassimilated, even hostile guests in our house.

The list goes on and on. The left is constantly telling us what we must believe. Screw them! Yet ironically, low info dems I know think they are the party of “live and let live.”

So HELL NO! If a candidate kisses up to BO and defends his non muslim status, they loose my respect.

He’s pretty much “in your face” now with his blatant acts.

Gay Army Secretary nomination, Transgender WH mucky-muck appointment, F/U Israel anytime any place, Iran deal, never saw a black-on-white-murder-he’s-pissed-about, #BLM, adolescent Muslim Bomb Maker invitations........ it goes on and on and on and on - 6 and half years’ worth. His whole administration is riddled with filth.

“”adolescent Muslim Bomb Maker invitations””

I keep running into this but I have no idea what it’s about??? Like I said in a post a few minutes ago, I’m catching up after my husband was in the hospital for nearly a week. Stressful time so brain needs to get back in gear.
