<p>Week 36, 2010</p>
<p>Last week there was an article on AOL News about how an increasing number of Americans doubted that President Obama is a Christian, but rather believe that he is a Muslim. This has also been picked up by television news. Much of the media seems intent on establishing Obama as a Christian, but in the words of Shakespeare, I think he “doth protest too much.” The way the media and the White House are covering this, it is likely far more people are being persuaded that Obama is indeed a Muslim.</p>
<p>Because I am often asked what I believe about President Obama’s faith, and this is becoming a rising issue in America, I will give my opinion. This is not a simple matter; rather it is serious, and I am concerned about addressing anything of this nature in a format such as the Word for the Week requires. Also, I have not given this as much attention as it deserves by those more qualified than me. However, because of the increasing number of requests to address his faith, I will do so admitting that my perspective is also a superficial one.
