Is Barack Obama a Muslim?

I am constantly angered by how many Christians will read something and then repeat it or even post it on the Internet even thought they have never researched the claim! I have seen so many false things forwarded by Christians via e-mail that it makes me think that some Christians don't seem to care about something called truth! Christians should be the most careful and best researchers. We believe in truth we claim to defend truth yet many Christians spend their time spreading lies and misinformation. One classic example of this is the Barack Obama story.

Here is what a christian sent to me in an e-mail:

Who is Barack Obama?
Very interesting and something that should be considered in your choice.
If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this to all your contacts...this is very scarey to think of what lies ahead ofus here in our own United States...better heed this and pray about it and share it.

We checked this out on "snopes.com". It is factual. Check for yourself.

Who is Barack Obama?Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHIEST from Wichita, Kansas.

Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia ?

When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocate to Indonesia. Obama attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta.
He also spent two years in a Catholic school.
Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school."
Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that that he is not a radical.
Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over his son's education.
Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta.Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad a gainst the western world.
Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegience nor will he show any reverence for our flag. While others place their hands over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag and slouches.
Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential candidacy.The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the insideout, what better way to start than at the highest level - through the President of the United States, one of their own!!!!Please forward to everyone you know. Would you want this man leading our country?...... NOT ME!!

There is so many lies in this e-mail I don't even know where to start. The e-mail claims they checked snopes.com when in fact they did not!

Snopes has a great article in which they examine each claim made about Obama, You should do yourself a favor and read it. Here is the link:
