Best Answer

The president's father was born a Muslim but left the religion and became an atheist. The president's mom was a non-practicing Christian. He was raised to respect all faiths, and even attended a Catholic school for a time while he was living in Indonesia. But he did not seem to become exposed to Christianity until he began living with his grandparents, who were Protestant Christians. The president has said he identifies with the Protestant Christian tradition, and contrary to various unproven internet myths, there is no reason to doubt his assertion that he is a Christian.
