WHAT ARE OBAMAS RELIGIOUS BELIEFS?

The media has made a big issue of the fact that Obama is a Christian,even though some Conservatives like myself are wondering if he is a closet Muslim?
Between Christian and Muslim there ia a wide open space for many other religious beliefs that are not indigenous to Americans.
One of these religions has claimed Obama as a believer, as this article from The Times of India shows.

NEW DELHI: "With Democrat senator Barrack Obama busy in the run-up to the U.S. presidential polls, a group of well-wishers in the capital have decided to send him a symbol of his lucky charm, Lord Hanuman, to help him emerge victorious.

Obama's representative Carolyn Sauvage-Mar on Tuesday received a gold-plated two-feet-high idol which she will pass it on to the Obama after it is sanctified.

The idol is being presented to Obama as he is reported to be a Lord Hanuman devotee and carries with him a locket of the monkey god along with other good luck charms. An hour-long prayer meeting to sanctify the idol was earlier organised at Sankat Mochan Dham and by Congress leader Brijmohan Bhama, Balmiki Samaj and the temple's priests.

"Obama has deep faith in Lord Hanuman and that is why we are presenting an idol of Hanuman to him," said Bhama.

Accepting the souvenir, Sauvage-Mar, who is chairperson of Democrats Abroad-India, said, "Obama has extended his thanks for the support."

However, questions on Obama's religious beliefs elicited just a smile from Sauvage-Mar, apparently to avoid controversy back home where the Democrat senator is pitted against the Republican Party's John McCain in the Presidential polls.

The idol will be kept at the temple for 11 more days and then sent to US.

"We will perform the prayers for 11 days and then hand the idol to Carolyn who will send it to Obama," said the temple priest.

This article only adds more confusion to those who are trying to decipher the enigma of Obama. What does he really believe, if anything, or is he trying to be all things to all people to capture the prise he seeks?

I am tired of sitting on the sidelines while the anti-American Media spews its' propaganda to our people. My little attempt to awaken more Americans to the threats and potential that "lies" ahead for the U.S. I may not always be right,but I will try! God Bless The United STATES!
And remember:"the illusion that a policy of mere redistribution of existing wealth can definitively resolve the problem must be set aside. In a modern economy, the value of assets is utterly dependent on the capacity to generate revenue in the present and the future. Wealth creation therefore becomes an inescapable duty, which must be kept in mind if the fight against material poverty is to be effective in the long term."
Pope Benedict XVI
