I Am Not A Muslim: Barack Hussein Obama

I got the below post from the Houston Chronicle's comments section from the article "Clinton speaks of faith in face of adversity." I posted on this same article earlier in the week. It was posted by a reader known as "cowardly_draft_dodger."

Read and enjoy. I find it amusing. It might even have a bit of truth to it.

Why I am still a Muslim
By Barack Hussein Obama

1. I was born a Muslim son to a Muslim father.
2. I was raised a Muslim by a Muslim stepfather.
3. As a child, I prayed to Allah.
4. As a young adult I declared my religion as Muslim.
5. I traveled to Pakistan on a trip funded by a Muslim Organization for Muslim College Students.
6. I studied Islam while in Pakistan and attended a Mosque.
7. I imagined myself following the call of [radical Muslim] Malcolm X.
8. I joined a church that did not require me being baptized or to take communion.
9. I have never renounced Islam.
10. I know that the Prophet Muhammad said it was okay for me to lie and claim that I am a Christian when I am not, if it furthers Islam.

Why I am a Christian
By Barack Hussein Obama

1. Because I say I am one (see item 10 above).

Still A Bit (Actually a Bunch) Under The Weather

I am still under the weather. I have not felt this bad in a long time. I think I am going to rethink a flu shot next year.

There is a great deal I want to post, but a short post is all I can manage this evening. I even got a substitute for tomorrow and Friday as I had trouble getting through my classes today.

When I am better, I will get back to posting. Take care and stay healthy. I would not want anyone (including a liberal Democrat) to feel that way I do.

Take care.
