Obama's Religion?

Since when did Obama's religion become headline news? Since reports that he was raised and educated in Madrassa and since the Hillary camp are beginning to question his Muslim heritage. Here is his response when asked, Do you consider yourself an evangelical Christian?
"Gosh, I'm not sure if labels are helpful here because the definition of an evangelical is so loose and subject to so many different interpretations. I came to Christianity through the black church tradition where the line between evangelical and non-evangelical is completely blurred. Nobody knows exactly what it means.

"Does it mean that you feel you've got a personal relationship with Christ the savior? Then that's directly part of the black church experience. Does it mean you're born-again in a classic sense, with all the accoutrements that go along with that, as it's understood by some other tradition? I'm not sure."

He continued his answer: "My faith is complicated by the fact that I didn't grow up in a particular religious tradition. And so what that means is when you come at it as an adult, your brain mediates a lot, and you ask a lot of questions.

"There are aspects of Christian tradition that I'm comfortable with and aspects that I'm not. There are passages of the Bible that make perfect sense to me and others that I go, 'Ya know, I'm not sure about that,'" he said, shrugging and stammering slightly. (cite)
This is less than convincing.

Thoughtful Readers Speak:
The Madrassa claim has been debunked -- please correct it. It was just a smear.

As a Christian, I'm sure you don't want to be guilty of violating the ninth commandment.

What's the use of posting them in schools if everyone just ignores them, anyway?
