With Christians your faith isn't a birthright, but with Muslims it is.
Obama's father split when Barack was two years old, so he was a non-factor. If you're going to insist that he's a Muslim, you're only going to be laughed at, and rightfully so.

Then again, if he is a Muslim, as you suggest, I have a hard time understanding why you then get so twisted over Rev. Wright. Wright's not a Muslim, so nothing he would've said would've had much of an impact on Obama.

You don't let that stop the hissy-fits, though, do ya'?

And I know plenty of people who are Christianfor no other reason than their parents were Christian, so your "birthright" argument falls flat on its' face...
