“Whom I should believe?”
Is it fair if someone had an opportunity to became US president, and everyone supported that person but after knowing his/her ex religion is a muslim, people changes their point of view. Daniel pipes look so confident with his opinion about Obama’s Muslim’s childhood and gives a sufficient resources that could be reliable, e.g. interviews from
A few friends and information about Obama’s background from his previous school in Indonesia (Franciscan Asisi Primary and muslim school). Some of his friends remember that obama was a muslim even he can lead the ceremony in the mosque, school said that he was registered as a muslim at that time both catholic school and muslim school. But is Obama really a muslim? If it is, does he deserve to become US president?
Everyone in their childhood time will always follow parents order and of course in terms of religion. Same as Obama, He followed his parents as a muslim; but that doesn’t mean that he is a Muslim. The reliability of the interview attached in the blog is still questioned. Why? because even Daniel can wrote by himself with a different name or ID. Daniel can have such kind of thoughts and argument because he mainly didn’t like Muslim or an anti-Muslim, he stereotyped his thoughts about muslim. Other possible reason, maybe pipes supported Hillary rather than Obama and knowing Obama win in some particular areas mostly black people make him wanted to destroy obama’s image by influencing others. If Daniel were Democratic, he wouldn’t say that kind of things about Obama, What is the beneficial values of making this topic or issues? Searching about individuals background information is inappropriate, and as an American is Daniel show that Americans were Democratic? Through his blog, people can judge whether he exaggerating things through it or just talking about nonsense.
Is it wrong to have black people as US president and was a muslim? Why do we have to care about the past? Present shows us that he already became a Christians, Daniel judges obama indirectly in his blog for changing his perspective from a muslim to Christian. Does Christian people guarantee more than a Muslim? No one knows till it happen. Everyone deserve a chance, doesn’t matter he / she is a Christian or not.
