Both of Barack Obama’s parents were atheists, and he doesn’t go to church now that he’s president. Thoughts?

From Barack Obama’s book, written by Obama himself:

“For my mother, organized religion too often dressed up closed-mindedness in the garb of piety, cruelty and oppression in the cloak of righteousness…. although my father had been raised a Muslim, by the time he met my mother he was a confirmed atheist, thinking religion to be so much superstition.”

WRITTEN BY OBAMA HIMSELF, YOU CANT CLAIM ITS NOT TRUE
written quite eloquently I may add
citation? it’s from Obama’s2006 book The Audacity of Hope, you think I wrote that?
That’s true, he also mentions the nonreligious along with religions in his speeches.

great — and thankfully his sister Maya is a Buddhist. As long as he’s not Muslim or Christian I’m happy. He is a bit of an opportunist though playing for the religious votes but so be it
