Evangelist Franklin Graham Says President Obama Was Born A Muslim But Has Now Accepted Jesus Christ

In a rather surprising interview (video) with CNN's John King yesterday, a leading Christian evangelist, Franklin Graham, made these comments on President Obama's religious beliefs (excerpts as reported by ABC News):
I think the president's problem is that he was born a Muslim, his father was a Muslim. The seed of Islam is passed through the father like the seed of Judaism is passed through the mother. He was born a Muslim, his father gave him an Islamic name.

Now it's obvious that the president has renounced the prophet Mohammed, and he has renounced Islam, and he has accepted Jesus Christ. That's what he says he has done. I cannot say that he hasn't. So I just have to believe that the president is what he has said.
