Obama's father was raised Muslim but lapsed into non-belief.
Obama has Muslim relatives.
Obama's middle name Hussein is Muslim/Arabic.
Obama spent 4 childhood years in Muslim Indonesia, his step-father was Muslim.
Obama had Pakistani friends/room-mates at college, and traveled to Pakistan.
These Pakistani friends had names similar to Hussein: Imad Husain, Hasan Chandoo.
Obama's identity is mixed and confused, that's his defining story. But part of that mixed identity is a strong affinity with Muslims.
This is simply fucking stupid.
My American grandfathers were Christian.
My father was raised Methodist, but now takes a smorgasbord approach to philosophy and religion.
I have Christian relatives.
My middle name is Michael, the name of a fucking archangel no less meaning "who is like God".
I spent until the age of 15 attending CCD in preparation for confirmation in the Catholic church.
I had Christian friends in college.
These friends had names like Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, George and Ringo.
According to your reasoning I must be Christian, but am only confused about my identity.
