Do we really need to relaunch the conspiracy theory of Obama being a covered Muhammedan just to give him a bad name?
No, we need not.
What he had to say on religion in this famous speech (I urge you to read it in full, it is brilliant even in the few details where I tend to disagree), cannot be said by somebody whose thinking represents Quranic ideology, or orthodox, sectarian Christian cults. It is healthy reason and pragmatism. In a truly Islamic society, he would have risked to get killed for it (and in a couple of extremist Christian circles probably too).

Americans are looking, Obama said, for a "deeper, fuller conversation about religion in this country." He started that conversation. A few others are joining in. It's time for everyone else to catch up.
