BHO was raised Muslim then Christian. His biological father was Muslim. His mother converted to Islam. His stepfather was Muslim. There's nothing secret about it. It's common knowledge now. Just like you probably just learned his middle name is Hussein, you're learning he studied Islam at Madrasah, in Indonesia, for 4 yrs during his pre-adolescence...OBAMA WAS BORN MUSLIM AND RAISED MUSLIM UNTIL HE WAS 12. He went to live with his Christian Grandparents between 10 - 12 and then stayed with them permanently at 12. His father most certainly was Muslim. His mother converted. His birth father took off when Barack was 2 y.o. Later his parents divorced, then his mother remarried a MUSLIM. His mother NEVER stopped being a practicing MUSLIM. Just because Obama has now addressed the RADICAL Madrasah claim does not make it false. It's true his biological father was Muslim, his mother converted, then married another Muslim. BHO, did study at Madrasah (Madrasah is merely a Muslim School - Not all Madrasah's are Radical) in Indonesia for 4 yrs. Obama was registered as a MUSLIM in THAT Indonesian Madrasah. BHO WAS RAISED MUSLIM UNTIL HE WAS 12. He became Christian under his grandparents tutelage, long after he moved in with them at age 12. The only thing Obama is insisting now is that his Madrasah, in Indonesia, is not Radical. Not all Madrasahs are Radical. However, he attended that Madrasah over 35 yrs ago. I'm sure that same Madrasah of today, looks nothing like it did 35 yrs ago. "What's truly interesting now is...Obama was born Muslim...According to Islam, he is now an apostate to Islam because he converted to Christianity...which is punishable by death..." Which is why he doesn't answer specific questions. He could very well be a closet Muslim. "Taking BHO at his word that he has become a Christian — that means he is an apostate. There is no dispute among either ancient or modern Moslem scholars that under Islamic law, a murtadd, "one who turns his back on Islam," an apostate, must be put to death." So does this mean, yet another public figure is going to be murdered by Islam? "His first name is taken from the Islamic term in Arabic for "blessed," baraka, used in the Koran." "Should Obama deny he ever was a Moslem, it will compound the problem in the eyes of Moslems. He was born of a Moslem father, raised by a Moslem stepfather, and received his first education at a Moslem school. That he subsequently went to a Catholic school in Jakarta before living with his mother's parents back in Honolulu makes no difference. In the eyes of Moslems, he originally was a Moslem." "Which provides the perfect opportunity for an enterprising journalist to ask him at a press conference if he is: 1. Afraid of Moslem assassination attempts as punishment for being in Islamic eyes an apostate? 2. Willing to publicly call upon all Moslems around the world to renounce such punishment and declare instead that Moslems are fully free to convert to another religion?"
