• Description : Obama Is A Muslim Based on 36 Facts...(more) - Part 1. On January 24 2007, the Obama campaign released the following statement, "To be clear, Senator Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised a Muslim, and is a committed Christian who attends the United Church of Christ in Chicago. On March 14th, in a statement to The Times, the Obama campaign corrected that statement with this: "Obama has never been a practicing Muslim. The statement added that as a child, Obama had spent time in the neighborhood's Islamic center." In two months the Obama Campaign has gone from describing the U.S. presidential hopeful as never having been a Muslim and never having been raised as a Muslim to now having never having been a practicing Muslim. Islam is patrilineal. Patrilineality is a system in which one belongs to one's father's lineage. In Islam, religion passes from the father to the child. For Muslims, the fact that Obama was born to a line of Muslim males makes him born a Muslim. Obama's father was a Muslim. Obama's grandfather was a Muslim. Obama's stepfather was a Muslim. Sarah, who Obama calls grandmother, is a Muslim. Obama's half-brothers and sisters are Muslims. To Muslims, Obama is a Muslim, no matter what he says. Obama's sister Maya was quoted by the New York Times as saying, "My whole family was Muslim." One assumes she considers Obama a member of her family. After all, she refers to him as "my brother." Barack Hussein Obama, Senior, born 1936 died 1982 -- was a Muslim who named his boy Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. Only Muslim children are named "Hussein". All children born with an Arabic name based on the H-S-N trilateral root -- that is, Hussein, Hassan, and others -- can be assumed to be Muslim, so that other Muslims will understand Obama's full name, Barack Hussein Obama, to proclaim him a born Muslim. In an ongoing lawsuit by Philip J. Berg, Barack Obama has refused to comply with the courts simple request for his birth certificate strongly suggesting that he cannot comply. According to Bergs informational sources, Barack Obama was born while his parents were visiting in Kenya, his fathers native country. If this is true, then Obama would be ineligible for the U.S. Presidency. It would also mean that he is a native of a Muslim Nation. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. Ann Obama then married Lolo Soetoro, who was also a Muslim, and was from Indonesia. Barack Obama at that time was referred to as Barry Soetoro. The family then moved to Jakarta, where Obama's half-sister Maya was born. She explained to Jodi Kantor of the New York Times: "My whole family was Muslim, and most of the people I knew were Muslim." An Indonesian publication, the Banjarmasin Post reports a former classmate, Rony Amir, recalling that "All the relatives of Barry's father were very devout Muslims." While attending Catholic School in Indonesia where it was forbidden to convert Muslims to Christianity -- official documents show that Barry Soetoro was registered by his father as a Muslim and as a citizen of Indonesia. At the Catholic school he attended, Nedra Pickler of the Associated Press reports that "documents showed he enrolled as a Muslim" while at a Catholic school during first through third grades. Kim Barker of the Chicago Tribune confirms that Obama was "listed as a Muslim on the registration form for the Catholic school." Other sources states that "Barack Hussein Obama was registered under the name 'Barry Soetoro', serial number 203 and entered the Franciscan Assisi Primary School on the first of January 1968 and sat in class 1B. Barry's religion was listed as Islam." In his autobiography, "Dreams From My Father," Obama mentions studying the Quran and describes the public school he attended as "a Muslim school." At the public school he attended, Paul Watson of the Los Angeles Times learned from Indonesians familiar with Obama when he lived in Jakarta that he "was registered by his family as a Muslim at both schools he attended." Haroon Siddiqui of the Toronto Star visited the Jakarta public school Obama attended and found that "Three of his teachers have said he was enrolled as a Muslim." Although Siddiqui cautions that "With the school records missing, eaten by bugs, one has to rely on people's shifting memories," he cites only one retired teacher, Tine Hahiyari, retracting her earlier certainty about Obama being registered as a Muslim. Koran class: In his autobiography, Dreams of My Father, Obama relates how he got into trouble for making faces during Koranic studies, thereby revealing he was a Muslim, for Indonesian students in his day attended religious classes according to their faith.
