"I've always been a Christian" Not PossibleReader comment on item: Was Barack Obama a Muslim? Submitted by Mark Simmons (United States), Mar 19, 2008 at 23:05 While Islam doesn't see practice as key to whether or not someone is Muslim, Christians do! This makes Obama's statement false from both a Muslim AND a Christian perspective. From the Christian perspective, people are not born a Christian, so to say "I've always been a Christian" is not possible.
