Is President Obama a Christian or a Muslim? Nation-wide poll results

by damp fang

Is U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama a Christian, a Muslim, or something else?   Recent poll numbers indicate a change in the nation’s perception of his religious beliefs, with the largest portion of the American public undecided and unclear. 

The nation-wide poll conducted from July 21 to August 5, 2010 by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press and the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life surveyed 3,003 respondents by phone (both landlines and cell phones) in both English and Spanish.

The results, released August 18, 2010, provide the following data in response to the question: “Do you happen to know what Barack Obama’s religon is?  Is he Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Bhuddist, Hindu, atheist, agnostic, or something else?”

                       March 2009     August 2010
Christian          48%                34%  (down 14%)
Muslim             11%                18%   (up 7%)
Other                 1%                  2%   (up 1%)
Don’t Know      34%                43%   (up 9%)
Refused            6%                  1%    (down 5%)

As you can see, an increasing number of people now believe that Barack Hussein Obama is indeed a Muslim while fewer believe him to be a Christian as he has claimed.  The largest percentage simply do not know what to think of Obama’s religious beliefs.

After all …

  • In his book The Audacity of Hope, Obama wrote “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”
     
  • As President, Barack Obama openly participated in Islamic prayer services
     
  • President Obama has taken numerous vacations, has appeared on a multitude of TV talk shows, plays golf frequently, yet he has not found a new church home in Washington, D.C..  
     
  • The church he attended taught black liberation theology – a racist belief system which is not in harmony with the gospel of Jesus Christ
     
  • Obama said his former pastor, the controversial Jeremiah Wright, was also his spiritual mentor
     
  • President Obama always puts a positive spin when referring to anything Islamic
     
  • President Obama refers to the Quran as “the Holy Qur’an” – something a Christian would never do
     
  • Photos of Obama as an adult have circulated widely on the internet where he appears in traditional Muslim dress.
     
  • President Obama required a NASA official to travel to the Middle East to encourage Muslim space exploration
     
  • And just a few days ago President Obama lent his voice to approve and encourage the establishment of an Islamic Mosque near Ground Zero, although he quickly back-peddled when enough voices rose up against him in disapproval.


As Pamela Geller once said “I don’t know if President Obama is a Muslim … I do know that if he were a Muslim, he wouldn’t be doing anything different.”  (see video)
