NY Times: Once A Muslim, Always A Muslim

And they are talking about Barack NMN Obama

But it is a mistake to conflate his African identity with his Muslim heritage. Senator Obama is half African by birth and Africans can understandably identify with him. In Islam, however, there is no such thing as a half-Muslim. Like all monotheistic religions, Islam is an exclusive faith.

As the son of the Muslim father, Senator Obama was born a Muslim under Muslim law as it is universally understood. It makes no difference that, as Senator Obama has written, his father said he renounced his religion. Likewise, under Muslim law based on the Koran his mother’s Christian background is irrelevant.

I do not see Obama as a Muslim. But, in their eyes, he is an apostate, and, you know what the punishment is for apostacy is in Islam, right?

As a sidebar, The TImes discusses what a charismatic figure Obama is. I guess that is necessary when one has little actual policy.

The punishment for apostasy?

Why, I’d have to guess it’d be the same as for anything else under their barbarian system of “jurisprudence.”

A slap on the wrist and three days without dessert, right?

For those of US Gulf War VETS that know the muzzie islamofascism religion of peace: YOU’RE WRONG NY SLIMES!
An infidel is an infidel and can always convert and pay the tax to Islam, but FORMER islamos that QUIT Islam for a Jeremiah Wright CHRISTIAN BLACK CHURCH are lowlife’s in Muhammad’s and Allah’s eyes and LOWER than infidels…. They are treasonous traitors and will be dealt with as such… Now back to your Starbuck $5 lattes blue state socialists!

I was just reminded of the 57 Islamic States when He Who’s Middle Name Must Not Be Mentioned *miss-spoke* the other day. What do you call that kind of screwup?

They also replace the rice pilaf and Orange Chicken with microwave dinners :)

Get ‘em, Darth!

The MSM calls that kind of screwup a humorous gaffe. If it had been McCain or Bush that said it……

Darth always does feel a bit better about his own life when he insults others.
Darth the “tax” is/was NOT paid by those who convert to Islam, it is/was paid by those who live in areas under muslim control and choose not to convert.
During the 6 months that I lived in Afghanistan (1776-1977) and the 6 months in extreme southern Philippines and Borneo/Malaysia in 1968 I was never asked to pay this tax.
Darth in view of the obvious contempt that you hold foe muslims do you regret either your previous service in the air force or our current commimtment/losses in helping these people ?
