i did a bit of studying and discovered the answer is No evewry president we have ever had is christian

-- In truth, Thomas Jefferson was not a Christian; he was a deist. Jefferson writes, in a letter penned to Benjamin Rush, that he was "a Christian" only in the fact that he respected the moral teachings of Jesus. He most certainly did not -- like most of the other founding fathers influenced by the Enlightenment philosophy around them -- believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ nor any of the supernatural aspects of the Christian Bible. Most would agree that to not believe in a good majority of The Bible (virgin birth; death and resurrection; etc) and to not believe that Jesus was the son of God, merely a good moral teacher, does not a Christian make.

Abraham Lincoln was also not a Christian, and neither was George Washington. So there is nothing that says the President must be Christian to be great.

Was President Obama ever a Muslim?

No, this is a common internet myth, but there is no evidence to support it. He has a Muslim name that he was given by his biological father, but his father was not a practicing Muslim by the time Barack was born, and he was never raised in the Muslim faith. He was raised by a non-practicing Christian mom, and later by his Protestant Christian maternal grandparents.


Were Obama's parents married in a Muslim ceremony?

No, this is a myth. The president's father had long ago stopped practicing Islam, and the president's mother was a non-practicing Christian. They were married in a small ceremony, and it seems to have been very non-religious.
