Barak O'bama denies that he is or ever was Muslim....

I also cry out loud to people who think that I am a Muslim. Sikhs get mistaken to be from Middle East, and to be Muslims. It has been stressed a lot in the past after 9/11 that 99.9 percent of people who wear Turbans in USA are Sikhs. Forget the 99.9%, I say one hundred percent of the people who wear Turbans in USA are Sikhs and only SIKHS. No offense to Muslims and there is nothing wrong in being a Muslim. But it is just wrong for people to assume what religion someone follows based on some frivolous e-mail or based on the looks.

Click here to read the e-mail that has been circulated stating that Barak Obama is a Muslim.

(For people who do not know who Barak Obama is, he is one of the front runners Democratic Presidential Candiate. He hopes to be nominated so that he could contest the Nov. 2008 Presidential elections in the USA. Currently he is serving as a Senetor in the state of Illinois.)

  • Being born and raised in India, I understand that some of the Hindus also sport turbans. But I have not seen anyone in US/Canada in Turbans but for Sikhs. For Sikhs, it is an integral part of the dress code, but for Hindus who wear turban, it is an option.

  • hmmm.. the only sad part is when it leads to hate crimes. One's faith should not lead to a hate crime. Ever.
