Should a Muslim be President

What is overlooked in this debate on whether or not a Muslim should be president is that when the Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution the only religion of any consequence in the country was Christianity. The Christian founders guaranteed freedom of religion to all religions, but they never expected to see a day when Islam or any other non-Christian religion would have been dominant. This is clear in their own writings and comments. John Jay, first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and author of five of The Federalist articles, said that it is the duty of Christians in a Christian nation to elect Christians to the nation's highest offices. The Founders, while granting freedom of worship to all religions, expected that America would be a Christian nation in perpetuity. The reason someone adhering to Sharia Law should not be president, even if the Constitution would allow it to happen, is that in Islam there can be no loyalty to any entity other than Allah. A Muslim president could not honestly take the oath of office because his only loyalty would be to Islam and an Islamic takeover and overthrow of the Constitution he would be swearing to defend.

  1. You are absolutely right, Lance. It's rcalled Christian neutrality, our government based on Chistian principals, but allowing freedom for all other religions.
