Religion dumped on you by parents?

A non practicing natural father, an alcoholic, a practising, but not devouted step-father, also an alcohlic.Why is never brought up the religion of his mother.

You live as a child from 6 years of age till 10, by this stepfahter, is it so strange that you follow him once and a while to the mosque? When I was a child I went to different churches, I just went along with my friends, it did not matter what church. There were no mosques, who knows if they would have been there, I might have gone too, as curious as I always was.

His more forming years, 10 - 18 were spend in Hawaii by his grandparents. as far as I can find out no religion was realy practiced by his grandparents. ( they were Christians). Did he than ever visit a mosque or when he went to the Harvard, did he visit a mosqye in that area? I gues if he would have, they would have let the media know.

Did he ever visit a mosque. to pray, in his adult life?

All this Islam garbage is dump on him by an absent father, who he barely knew or did see. He is no different than Bush, when he stated that Islam is a Religion of Peace. So, why don't all our politicians stop this nonsense, they are all appeasers to Islam. Would they be, if there was no oil in these nations?
