Obama A Secret Muslim? (Yahoo News Comments)

An article on Yahoo News (written by Associated Press) had an article which discussed a poll on President Obama's religion. The story discusses how a larger percentage of those polled believe that Obama is a Muslim than previously; also more people claim to not know what Obama's religion is. Without getting into the actual numbers (you can check it out by clicking here: Yahoo News), I find it interesting how effective the right's propaganda is, especially that of FOX "News". The main reason that more people believe that Obama is a Muslim, or in other words, the reason why we have this increase is attributed to Obama supporting the construction of the Ground-Zero Mosque. If you haven't seen it, check it out...



While I disagree with Obama on condoning the building of this mosque, him doing so in no way makes him look like a Muslim. His actions make him seem more secular than anything, being that the reasons he gave for supporting it were religious freedom etc. I believe him supporting the Mosque shows more than anything that he is probably not a staunch believer, and probably more of an agnostic or deist (perhaps even an atheist).

Here are some of the Yahoo comments posted that caught my eye for rather being stupid, funny, bigoted...well, you get the idea.

(disclaimer: this site is not claiming to support or condone any of the following opinions, they are being posted for entertainment purposes only).

"How many times must the media try to clarify his religion. Obama says he is christian, but hangs out and caters more to Muslims. Obama bowed to a Muslim King. No american President is to bow before any king. what ever the case, OBAMA STINKS!"

"If it looks like a moslem, talks like a moslem and walks like a moslem, then regardless of protests to the contrary it is a moslem....and Barack Obama is a moslem."

"I'll ask again! Are there any Japanese Resturants at Pearl Harbor?"


"Liberal lies about him again. He was born in Kenya and he is a muslim. All his actions and statements prove he is--end of argument!!!!."

"He was born to a black African and a mentally ill white communist, and raised by a muslim. His african centered, supposed christian, church hates America. He don't even know what he is! He knows that he doesn't know what he is. All I see is a smooth talking colored boy with big ears who has never had a real job that produced anything of any use.

He is the perfect figure head for a nation that has lost its identity and is descending into third world status."

"If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, chances are its a Muslim."

"No Christian bows to a Saudi king plain and simple. This POS is a Moslem. Do a video search and hear from his own mouth. Wake up America."


"Actually he's neither...Communists don't believe in GOD."




Here are a few rational responses that I am not afraid to openly agree with...


"Anyone who really cares whether or not he's a Muslim or a Christian or an atheist must not have much of a life if they can really spend time and energy worrying about this kind of @#$%.
Seriously, grow up, people. There's a whole world outside of religion. It's lovely, and involves no nasty bickering and meaningless, pointless accusations. There's about as much wrong with Obama being a Muslim as there is him being a Christian."

"The fact is: The President is an Atheist. Those who don't already know this just have not been paying attention. like all American politicians, he panders to American superstitions for political reasons. Votes.
“Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the politicians as useful.” Seneca 3 Bc- 65Ad"

Is Obama a Muslim? I don't believe he is, I think that the increase in poll numbers is a product of FOX "News". Here is a video showing just how "fair and balanced" they are...



FOX likes to ask "questions" in order to imply some false piece of information for political spin. It is impressive how well they are able to do it. CNN/MSNBC/ABC needs to start taking notes, Republicans do not have a monopoly on stupid/gullible people...or do they?
