In the years 2000 through 2004, before becoming a United States Senator and being in the public spotlight, Obama gave 1% of his earnings to charity even though he made $250,000 per year. Since becoming a national figure, that amount has jumped to 6%.[71] Obama's small donations are consistent with atheism and were perhaps influenced by his nonbelieving mother. According to a study by the Barna Group, atheists give less per capita in donations than religious Americans [72].

Fox News is reporting that Obama will use the Lincoln Bible to be sworn in [2]. I think it's fairly safe to say that it will not be a koran. I also think it is safe to say that this is exactly the kind of trickery a manchurian muslim would use. Is it worth a mention in the "likely muslim" section? CWood 11:01, 15 January 2009 (EST)

This sounds pretty hilarious, I am looking forward to seeing the conservative re-wording of the bible. Now then, for the inevitable audiobook, who would you want to do the narraration?

"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 19:24) nearly everyone is "abundantly supplied" today with food and entertainment, and "rich" has come to mean relative wealth without any absolute significance; continued use of "rich" is misleading in justifying laziness and socialism "fully fed and entertained" or "idle miser," or something similar.

Would it be too obvious of a troll to say "As during the writing of the New Testament, the Jews were only becoming familiar with his messiahship, but have since rejected it, if it would not be more accurate to reword the 'chosen people' from 'Jews' to 'White Europeans' "

Obama will likely be the first Muslim President The argument that Obama is a Muslim is largely based on his Islamic background. It also includes: * Obama's background, education, and outlook are Muslim, and fewer than 1% of Muslims convert to Christianity.[27][28] * Obama's middle name (Hussein) references Husayn, who was the grandson of Muhammad,[29] which most Christians would not retain.[30] * Obama recently mentioned his religion as "my Muslim faith."[31] * Obama said the Muslim call to prayer is "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset," and recited "with a first-class Arabic accent" the opening lines: Allah is Supreme! ... I witness that there is no god but Allah ...."[32] * Obama stated that the autobiography of Malcolm X, a Nation of Islam leader who became a Muslim, inspired him in his youth.[33] * Obama raised nearly $1 million and campaigned for a Kenyan presidential candidate who had a written agreement with Muslim leaders promising to convert Kenya to an Islamic state that bans Christianity.[34] * Obama's claims of conversion to Christianity arose after he became politically ambitious, lacking a date of conversion or baptism.[35] * On the campaign trail, Obama was reading "The Post-American World" by Fareed Zakaria,[36] which is written from a Muslim point-of-view.[37] * Contrary to Christianity, the Islamic doctrine of taqiyya encourages adherents to deny they are Muslim if it advances the cause of Islam. * Obama uses the Muslim Pakistani pronunciation for "Pakistan" rather than the common American one.[38] * Obama was thoroughly exposed to Christianity as an adult in Chicago prior to attending law school, yet no one at law school saw him display any interest in converting. Obama unabashedly explained how he became "churched" in a 2007 speech: "It's around that time [while working as an organizer for the Developing Communities Project (DCP) of the Calumet Community Religious Conference (CCRC) in Chicago] that some pastors I was working with came around and asked if I was a member of a church. 'If you're organizing churches,' they said, 'it might be helpful if you went to a church once in a while.' And I thought, 'I guess that makes sense.'"[39] * Obama is mentioned as helping to organize the 1995 million man march led by black Muslim leader Louis Farrakhan from the Nation of Islam. [40] * Obama has chosen the Secret Service code name "Renegade". "Renegade" conventionally describes someone who goes against normal conventions of behavior, but its first usage was to describe someone who has turned from their religion. It is a word derived from the Spanish renegado, meaning "Christian turned Muslim."[41] * Obama enjoyed a bigger increase in voter support in 2008 (compared to 2004) by Muslims than by any other voting group, including blacks;[42] "Muslim turnout in the U.S. elections reached 95 percent, the highest Muslim turnout in U.S. history."[43] * "President-elect Barack Obama has yet to attend church services since winning the White House earlier this month, a departure from the example of his two immediate predecessors."[44]
