Every year in the period right before Labor Day, there seems to be a period when people's minds stray from their normal objectivity. This morning, for example, I had a long conversation with a normally rational individual who thought that it was an open question whether or not Obama is a Muslim. His argument was that under sharia law, Obama is a Muslim since his father was one. Further, since Obama has never come forward with any proof of his conversion to Christianity, he remains a Muslim. Nothing I said could shake this person's view regarding Obama's religion.
It is sad indeed when people of reasonable intelligence and insight get so far misled by the twists and turns of what can best be called pure sophistry. Obama is a Christian because he tells us he is a Christian. Enough said.
